<\/a><\/div>\nThe night was spent just outside Repetigny on Highway 138 and the following morning I stumbled across Used Car Heaven that slowed me down for several hours.<\/p>\n
What with the ones outside, there were probably 70 cars here, all in various stages of disrepair and all of them for sale.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, they have a showroom of the finished product in Montreal and I have an invitation to go to visit them when I get back.<\/p>\n
Apart from that, it’s just been following Highway 138 – the chemin du roy<\/i> from the 18th Century, equivalent of the Great North Road, and eventually I’ll reach my destination. I’m in no rush.<\/p>\n
Two interesting conversatiions today though –<\/p>\n
In the Oxfam shop in Trois Rivi\u00e8res yesterday, a woman is trying out a small cast-iron skillet that must weigh a good 7 or 8 kilos –
Me – “I bet your husband knows who is in charge in your house if you have something like that”
Woman – “my husband has passed on, unfortunately”
Me – “so is that why you need a new cast-iron skillet?”
Woman – “not at all. However, I am looking for a new husband”
Me – “well, if you are buying a cast-iron skillet like that, I’m afraid you need to look at someone other than me”<\/span><\/div>\n

Rhys – “there’s a thunderstorm here”<\/span><\/div>\n
Me – “it’s snowing here”<\/span><\/div>\n
Rhys – “you’re in Canada, you pillock. It’s always snowing there!”<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Ahh well.<\/span><\/div>\n
