You're on. If you can spare your driveway for a month in February I can reciprocate in the summer. The average high here is about 27C in July and August although it will go up to 37. I am also generous in the ass department so it should be a fair whoopin. Went to school in Halifax for three years - great place. Maybe you need a summer home?!
