1) I think it's cute you say "chesterfield". I grew up with a formal mother who said parlour instead of living room and it's a habit that stuck with me.
2) I usually go biking whenever I can on Sunday. Just say the word. I usually go along the river from Verdun to Dorval (although I have gone along the Canal from Lachine (near Rene Levesque Park which is nifty) towards the Vieux Port. I would like very much to meet up or go with you on any given Sunday that it is not pouring.
3) AXA does suck. They are the evilmongers who I fought with for 5 months after the house NEXT door burnt and the firefighters did $40,000 damage on my place. After that, of course I was the equivalent of a leper looking to borrow a towel and the only people that took me on was ING (like the finance company).
4) You are absolutely right re declutter in relation to your Crusade for Cleanliness. I went on a decluttering bender about 2 years ago and it changed my life. People would ask "have you started packing yet?" And, as someone who never moved much I would think "if packing is giving things away and throwing things out, then yes, I am packing." I sometimes worry that the new place looks a tad cold but it is so easy to clean! I am the only person I know who gets excited about garbage/recycling day (whee it's today and it's already out at 4 am!)
