    In your travels if you are close either to Calgary or Edmonton, look for a latin store and get some cans of Chilorio la Chata, also do a guacamole with nachos plus beer, calidad my friend!

      @fuckwad Nope, it's Calgary, that was the Home Depot across from Chinook Centre. And the stealth bacon fry was just a bit north of there close to the C train tracks. Banff is only 1hr away. And Kira is in Calgary, even more reason for him to be there.

    I still need to get the" Forresty forest he lives in a van" as a message tone on my phone. Anyone out there who can do it?
    Another superb video 👍 Russ from the UK
