http://youngmanfromcanada.blogspot.com/2004_11_01_archive.html
The Young Man from Canada. A Canadian exchange student abroad. Monday, November 29, 2004. What do you mean I've been here for two and a half months? What do you mean my family will be here in three weeks? What do you mean I only have two papers left and a little group project before I'm done for Christmas? Posted by JDF at 29.11.04. When Kat and I were in Skye. Sunrise from the ferry looking north toward Dunoon. Tile floor and sinks, The Victorian Toilets. Chapel ruins, Rothesay Castle. In Britain someti...

The Young Man from Canada: May 2005
http://youngmanfromcanada.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_archive.html
The Young Man from Canada. A Canadian exchange student abroad. Friday, May 20, 2005. Settle-Carlisle Line and Halifax Beer Festival. On Friday morning I was up early to catch the 6:50 train from Glasgow Central on my long and roundabout journey down to Oxford to meet Leslie and her sister Sarah. So first it was the 6:50 train to London Euston and then I alighted at Carlisle to change to the Settle-Carlisle line. Oh, how long have you been in England then? Also, the many posters reminded me that buying a ...

The Young Man from Canada: January 2005
http://youngmanfromcanada.blogspot.com/2005_01_01_archive.html
The Young Man from Canada. A Canadian exchange student abroad. Wednesday, January 26, 2005. No more ceilidhs for me. Well, no more ceilidh classes anyway. I had fun at the Glasgow University ceilidh class but since they lost their regular caller I haven't been learning much more there. I'm proficient enough to dance every ceilidh I've been to so I feel it's time to move on to other things. Namely the Hamilton and Clydesdale branch of the Royal Scottish Country Dance Society (RSCDS). Me and the Mallard.

http://youngmanfromcanada.blogspot.com/2004_12_01_archive.html
The Young Man from Canada. A Canadian exchange student abroad. Wednesday, December 22, 2004. Family arrived on Monday and we've been touring around Glasgow for two days now. I kind of figured this would happen but I've ended up seeing more of Glasgow in the past two days than I have in the past three months! Posted by JDF at 22.12.04. Sunday, December 19, 2004. The Quest for Eggnog. Did you know that they don't drink eggnog in Britain? I had no idea. I just assumed that it was a British thing, part o...

The Young Man from Canada: February 2005
http://youngmanfromcanada.blogspot.com/2005_02_01_archive.html
The Young Man from Canada. A Canadian exchange student abroad. Monday, February 28, 2005. On February 13 I woke up early hoping to catch the train to Fort William. The weather turned out to be cloudy despite the forecast the day before for sun, so I instead headed to New Lanark. New Lanark as from road into the valley. Tenement rows, New Lanark. A spinning mule in one of the mill buildings. This is still operational and I got to see it working. The Clyde and valley. The Falls of the Clyde. Well, I headed...

The Young Man from Canada: March 2005
http://youngmanfromcanada.blogspot.com/2005_03_01_archive.html
The Young Man from Canada. A Canadian exchange student abroad. Thursday, March 31, 2005. Trains Planes and Automobiles. Besides being a great Steve Martin and John Candy movie, it has been my life for the past few days. To make sure I would get up, I set three alarm clocks on my shelf before I went to bed. In the end I woke up half an hour before they all went off. I had a quick shower and got my things, and headed out of Birkbeck Court to Glasgow Central. I made it to Heathrow and checked in without a p...

The Young Man from Canada. A Canadian exchange student abroad. Monday, April 11, 2005. I do apologize for the lateness of this entry. I have three days with Kat to write about, two days at home, the trip home, and climbing two Scottish mountains to write about. Not sure how much I'll get through tonight but we'll give it a go. So the date would be March 31. Posted by JDF at 11.4.05. Washington Post Traffic Cams. George Square Webcam 1. George Square Webcam 2. Welcome to Northern Virginia.

http://youngmanfromcanada.blogspot.com/2004_10_01_archive.html
The Young Man from Canada. A Canadian exchange student abroad. Saturday, October 30, 2004. Well in this entry. I promised a follow-up on the Scottish beer that I have tried. Well, there has been a bit more since then and I can say I've had some truly fabulous ones, and some real stinkers. When Jessica and I went to Borders to see Michael Palin, we walked by a table that had the 2005 Good Beer Guide which is published every year by CAMRA. Posted by JDF at 30.10.04. Monday, October 25, 2004. In Britain you...
