Mayor Lois Jackson was the special guest at the Delta Community Living Society family picnic at Kirkland House in Ladner last Friday. The event had music, face painting, a barbecue and more foradults with developmental disabilities, their families, friends and caregivers.

A major housing proposal bythe Tsawwassen First Nationcould be just the tip of the icebergin a huge residential transforma-tion of the reserve.

The TFN has been focusing ongrowing its industrial base sincesigning a treaty, but housing isanother significant componentlooming on the horizon that couldradically change the face of SouthDelta.

The first move in that regardsurfaced this month when a pairof band families began advertising

123 continuous acres that are saidto have the development potentialof upwards of 1,100 single-familylots. Colliers International recent-ly issued a request for proposalsfrom interested developers to buythe land, designatedas an enterprise zonewithin the TFN’sland use plan, on a99-year pre-paid lease.

In an interview last week, ChiefKim Baird said the project is notan initiative of the band’s council,but the individual members whoown the land.

According to ColliersInternational, potential housing

within the TFN’s enterprise zoneis a whopping 4,844 single-fam-ily homes, 9,688 townhouses or11,840 condos.

In addition, even more homescould become a reality in several

areas designated within the TFN’sland use plan as future multi-fam-ily and single family development.Much of that land is controlled bythe band.

Currently, there are approxi-mately 500 non-native residentsliving on the reserve at Tsatsu

Shores, Stahaken and on lotsalong Tsawwassen Beach.

The TFN land use plan statesthe housing development tak-ing place at the neighbouringTsawwassen Golf and Country

Club “provides andexcellent oppor-tunity for TFN todevelop a market

housing subdivision consistingof multi-family housing adjacentto the golf course.” The plan alsonotes there are opportunities todevelop additional multi-familyunits adjacent to Tsatsu Shoresand along the base of the bluff aswell as south of Highway 17.

The TFN says its land use plansupports the development of “acomplete community” by creatingdiverse neighbourhoods with arange of housing types.

As far as the housing devel-opment that’s now plannedwithin the enterprise zone, HowieCharter, managing director ofColliers International, told theOptimist the long-term lease pro-vides a sense of certainty.

“We’re planning on using thevery same contractual models thatare being used at Simon Fraserand at UBC, because there’s avery high degree of market accep-tance for those models,” he said.

Great day for a picnic!

Even bigger plans for reserveColliers says 1,100-home project is only a portion of the almost 5,000 homes possible in enterprise zone

Opponents of Southlandsdevelopment have calledthe relationship betweenKwantlen PolytechnicUniversity and the CenturyGroup into question.

Southlands the Facts saidthis week that informationobtained through a Freedomof Information Act requestrevealed that in the springof 2009, Century Groupand Kwantlen signed amemorandum of under-standing in which CenturyGroup agreed to pay theuniversity consulting ser-vices fees, and to provideadditional endowment fund-ing upon the approval of adevelopment application forSouthlands.

Century Group has beenmarketing its development

proposal by using researchperformed by Kwantlenpromoting agricultural-urbanism, however, neitherparty had disclosed the rela-tionship and funding agree-ment, said the opponents.

“The lack of disclosure iscertainly disturbing,” statedDana Maslovat, one of theorganizers of Southlandsthe Facts, in a news release.

“With any research, theorganization has a respon-sibility to divulge theirfunding sources so that thepublic may form their ownopinions of any potentialbias in the conclusions.Rather than an independentresearch institution, thisagreement basically turnsKPU into a lobbyist forCentury Group.”

The Century Group isproposing to build 1,900housing units of various

forms on the Southlands.Under the plan, 42 per cent(about 200 acres) of theland would be dedicatedto urban agriculture andhanded over to Delta. Theproposal also includes anew Kwantlen campus thatwould focus on sustainableagricultural practices.

Saying he’s upset someare trying to manufacture acontroversy over his part-nership with the university,Century Group presidentSean Hodgins noted thememorandum has beenmade public since early thisyear when they created theImagineSouthlands website.

Hodgins also said he hasspoken publicly on severaloccasions about Century’scommitment to a numberof agricultural-relatedimprovements to the landthat will be dedicated to the

community. Chief amongthem, he noted, is the finan-cial support to Kwantlen tocreate a “Centre of UrbanAgriculture.”

Responding to thequestioning of his univer-sity’s motives, Jason Dyer,Kwantlen’s executive direc-tor of research and scholar-ship, told the Optimist thatuniversities are evolving.They are more accountableto the public and fundingagencies, needing to beseen to be doing somethingrather than just teaching,he said, noting what hisuniversity is doing is part ofmodern academia.

“You name an institution,they do it. We’re engaged inwhat I call socially relevantresearch, which is whereoften research universitieswill be hired by govern-ment, both provincial and

federal, municipal andprivate organizations andcompanies to undertakeresearch for them, usuallyaround feasibility studies orpolicy statements.”

Dyer said governmentfunding is so small thatuniversities must lookelsewhere, but what’s moreoften the case is that otherswill seek to partner withpost-secondary institutions.

“Kwantlen is engagedwith municipalities andcompanies all over ourarea. They come to us witha problem and we try toanswer it. We call it spon-sored research and it’s partof normal academia,” hesaid.

As an institution, Dyersaid, Kwantlen respects theacademic integrity and free-doms of its researchers.

One of many projects

Kwantlen is undertaking isa farm school in partnershipwith the City of Richmond.Dyer said it would teachpeople about urban agricul-ture, while the vision forthe Southlands is to put thatexperience into practice.

“The Century Groupultimately wants to put ourexpertise into practice andthat was part of the feasibil-ity study. Can this be done?We’d love to expand this toother municipalities,” headded.

At a Tsawwassen AreaPlan Committee meet-ing earlier this year, KentMullinix, a sustainablehorticulture specialistwith the university, madea presentation explaininghow the Southlands wouldbe an ideal site for whathe termed “municipallyenabled agriculture.”

Delta Hospital’s emer-gency ward will get addi-tional staffing in a newcontract between emer-gency room doctors and theprovincial government.

Health Services MinisterKevin Falcon announcedthis week that 19 hospitalsacross the province willhave increased physicianshifts, including DeltaHospital, where the full-time equivalent staff will goup from 7.3 to 9.15.

The ministry and B.C.

Medical Associationannounced that over thenext two years, the govern-ment would invest a total of$146 million for physicianservices in hospitals — $12million more than the previ-ous agreement.

Periodically, the provinceand emergency physicianswill review the chang-ing demand in emergencyrooms to ensure funding isallocated appropriately. Theministry and the emergencyphysicians agreed on how todistribute the new resourcesby using a rigorous model,the ministry stated.

Dr. Navdeep Grewal,spokesperson for the emer-gency physicians at DeltaHospital, said she’s pleasedwith theincrease,notingthey’ll beable to addone muchneededshift.

In an interview a fewweeks ago, Grewal warnedthat patient demand at theER has grown significantlysince 2006. The hospitalhad not increased its staff-ing, she said, noting that

patient wait times weresteadily increasing.

Emergency room physi-cians across the province

hadgonepublicaboutwhattheysaid

were serious staffingshortages, due in part to astalemate in talks with thegovernment.

The three-year contractfor ER physicians expiredat the end of March, butGrewal said money was not

an issue for the doctors.She explained a joint

committee of provincialofficials, the B.C. MedicalAssociation and ER doctorswas created three years ear-lier to find a better formulafor ER staffing at the 19hospitals. The committeefailed to reach a consensusand dissolved at the end of2009.

In an interview respond-ing to the concerns raiseda couple of months ago,Falcon told the Optimistthe ministry and BCMAwould jointly determinewhere additional resources

are needed most, just aswhat had been done in 2007when there was an increasein full-time equivalent staffacross the province by morethan seven per cent, withDelta Hospital seeing anincrease as well.

He also noted, “In part-nership with the DeltaHospital Foundation, wehave also made signifi-cant capital investments toimprove emergency depart-ment congestion at DeltaHospital, providing nearly$1.5 million to triple thefloor space of the DeltaER.”

Delta will decorate several traffic signal, hydro and pump station kiosks with a graffiti-resistantvinyl film to deter unsightly spray paint tagging. Staff looked at how other cities, including Surreyand Burnaby, have wrapped utility kiosks with artistic vinyl and found it has been successful atreducing both instances of graffiti and the cost of cleanup. The decorative wrappings here willportray scenes that reflect the area. Council approved the $6,000 expenditure this week.

The major housingproject planned for theTsawwassen First Nationreserve is another argu-ment against housing forthe contentious Southlandsproperty.

That’s the view ofSouthlands the Factsspokesperson DanaMaslovat, commenting thisweek on a recent DeltaOptimist story about a planby a pair of TFN families tosell 123 acres that have thedevelopment potential forupwards of 1,100 single-family lots.

“This is something thatwe have been talking forsome time. It’s not thatwe’re opposed to growth,but there’s a lot of growthalready planned and thatneeds to be taken intoaccount,” said Maslovat.

Southlands the Facts

has been lobbying to stophousing proposed for theSouthlands. The owner ofthe property, the CenturyGroup, has put forward aproposal that includes 1,900units as well as a largeportion of the site handedover to the municipality forurban agriculture.

According to a designbrief by the Century Group,the development, followingconcepts of new urbanism,would contain a variety ofhousing types ranging fromcottages and granny flatsto low-rise apartments andsmaller family units.

However, Maslovat notedthat in addition to the hun-dreds of condos and town-homes under constructionat the Tsawwassen Golf andCountry Club, there’s alsogoing to be a large amountof infill development takingplace in the community.

“They (Tsawwassen AreaPlan Committee) talked

about some of the plans forinfill, the potential for towncentre infill to reach 31,000people, which is a 10,000-person increase,” he said.

“What we’ve been talk-ing about from the begin-ning is the suggestionfrom Century or anyonethat Tsawwassen is goingto wither up and die if wedon’t get this developmentat the Southlands is thatthere’s lots of develop-ment going on and lots ofpotential people coming toTsawwassen without havingto put houses on farmland,”Maslovat said.

Meanwhile, theTsawwassen Area PlanCommittee, which wasto discuss the results of amunicipal survey on severaltopics, including develop-ment on the Southlands,cancelled its meeting thisweek. Another meetingwill be scheduled later thismonth.

Twenty local studentswere standing a little tallerand a little prouder thisweek as they completed theannual Delta Police StudentPolice Academy.

On Tuesday, the 16 youngmen and four young womencelebrated the end of a rig-orous week, which includedfirearms and driver training,lessons in control tacticsand operational scenarios,legal studies, drills andphysical fitness.

This summer marks thesixth year the departmenthas hosted the academy.

“This is an excellentprogram and allows youngpeople a glimpse of whatour officers experience intraining and in their day-to-day duties,” said chief JimCessford upon inspectingthe graduating class.

“I am proud of the hardwork that our officers putinto not only this programbut other youth initia-tives,” said Cessford. “Ialso appreciate the effortof each student during thischallenging week. I lookforward to seeing some ofthem graduating from the

Justice Institute as Deltapolice recruits.”

The program focuses onteaching the students thatpolice work is a team effortfocused on turning indi-vidual skills into collective

ability.Class valedictorian Jelisa

Massoud summed up whatthe group had learned: “...most importantly, yourteam is your team, you traintogether, you sweat togeth-

er, you suffer together andyou win together,” she said.“Thank you guys for beingan awesome team and thankyou so much constables forgiving us an experience wewill never forget.”

A North Delta womanlaunched a lawsuitagainst the B.C. LotteryCorporation this weekalleging the company’sself-exclusion programfailed to help her curb hergambling addiction.

Joyce May Ross filed acivil suit in B.C. SupremeCourt Tuesday allegingnegligence and breach ofcontract by BCLC and twoLower Mainland casinosfor failing to stop her fromentering the two facilitiesand gambling away morethan $300,000.

Ross has made head-lines this week as the firstperson to ever sue the lot-tery corporation for notstopping her from gam-bling.

The 54-year-old self-employed businesspersonstarted gambling around1999 and by 2005 she wasdoing so on a daily basis,sometimes spending morethan $1,000 a day.

According to courtdocuments filed this week,in June 2007, after suf-fering significant lossesat both Fraser Downs andCascades casinos, Ross,

feeling like she had lostany control over her gam-bling, went back to FraserDowns to sign up for theBCLC Voluntary Self-Exclusion program.

The program allowspeople who feel they havea problem with gamblingto sign up to excludethemselves from B.C.casinos.

Participants in the pro-gram are photographedand sign a contract will-ingly barring themselvesfrom gaming facilities fora period of six months tothree years.

Ross signed up think-ing if she entered a casinoin the future she wouldbe escorted out by secu-rity. However, after a fewweeks of staying awayfrom gambling, she suc-cessfully entered andgambled at a Victoriacasino. A few weeks afterthat, she has back gam-bling at Fraser Downs andCascades.

She claims that duringthe three years she was inthe program, she lost about$331,000.

Ross is seeking dam-ages and restitution of themoney she lost after join-ing the program.

MURPHY’SLAW

It says something not too flatteringabout direct democracy rules in thisprovince that the Fight HST folks arealready planning their next move.

You’d think that after collecting morethan 700,000 signatures, equivalent toalmost half the voters in the last provin-cial election, they’d be basking in theglow of having changed public policywhen it comes to the wildly unpopularharmonized sales tax. Surely an outpour-ing of that magnitude would result insome meaningful modifications to theway in which government operates, but,sadly, that doesn’t appear it’s going bethe case.

With their efforts likely to result inlittle more than a failed bill in the legisla-ture (at least from a procedural perspec-tive), they will soon turn their attentionto recall efforts against what they con-sider to be vulnerable Liberal MLAs.

And, just like the citizen petition,they’ll find the sledding difficult becauseB.C.’s direct democracy legislation issimply set up for failure.

When it comes to recall, comparedto the citizen petition, the numbers aredaunting: rather than three months tocollect the signatures of 10 per cent ofregistered voters, recall gives organiz-ers just two months to sign up a muchmore hefty 40 per cent of those on thevoters list. Granted, this only needs to beaccomplished in a single constituency,not the entire province like the anti-HSTpetition, but even so it’s such an uphillbattle it’s never been accomplishedbefore, although one MLA did resignwhen recallers got close.

Delta South voters know just howdifficult it is to recall an MLA, havinglived through a near-successful one offormer Liberal Val Roddick eight yearsago. Even with widespread unrest overcuts to Delta Hospital services, it stillwasn’t enough to unseat our elected rep-resentative as a couple thousand invalidsignatures dropped the total collected justbelow the threshold necessary for victory.

With Fight HST’s petition doomed forfailure in Victoria at the hands of the rul-ing Liberals, its volunteer army will morethan likely be mobilized early next yearto embark on the treacherous road that isrecall.

It will be another attempt at mak-ing direct democracy work, an effortto get government to take notice of theelectorate’s discontent by plucking someof its members from the benches of thelegislature.

Whether this dedicated bunch canmake it happen remains to be seen.Legislation says it’s possible, but historyhasn’t been so kind.

The Ipsos Reid survey report ofthe Tsawwassen Area Plan ques-tions is in, and there are some whofeel Delta council should havefollowed the chief administrativeofficer’s (CAO) report to the letter.I am not one of them.

As I understand it, the CAO hada copy of the report only hoursbefore it was presented to coun-cil. In a typical situation the CAOmakes recommendations to coun-cil on matters coming before it. Iassume that happened here. Someask: “What needs more study?”“Why not simply implementaccording to the survey results?”

One question dealt with resi-dential building heights, which isof more significance to those inBeach Grove and in Boundary Baythan to the rest of us because theyare confronted by larger/monsterhouses wedged between smallercottages.

The Tsawwassen Area PlanCommittee was drafting guidelinesfor heights in those communities.Councillors Bruce McDonald andScott Hamilton were correct insuggesting the CAO’s recommen-dations be referred to the commit-tee, and that the committee care-fully consider them. Committeemembers will get finer details fromthe survey data as McDonald hasalready asked for a “drilling down”of data into some neighbourhoods.

The town centre building heightof four storeys is something I cansupport with a caveat. The currentbuilding owners attended a com-mittee meeting last winter and indi-cated little interest in redevelopingwith that height limit, thus consign-ing us to another decade or two ofno change.

We asked them about increasedheight, and until we got to eight to10 storeys their eyes didn’t lightup. My request for a land econo-mist to tell us if four storeys arepractical (it was in 1990) was lefton the table. So, following thesurvey’s recommendation of a four-storey maximum is to accept whatwe have for the foreseeable future.

Increasing density in residentialareas is a subject yet to be conclud-ed by the committee. Our discus-sion draft suggests increasing the

density along major traffic routeswithin Tsawwassen in the form ofrow housing and, in some cases,apartments.

The first and big question formany was the Southlands, where62 per cent of residents in the sur-vey said no to development. Wherewe go with this result remains to beseen; many more steps are neededto reach a conclusion and to incor-porate a comprehensive policy. Itwill be a major part of the discus-sion when the area plan comes outthis fall for public feedback anddebate, and then a public hearing.

Running in parallel, and with nocoordination, is the TsawwassenFirst Nation plan to build 1,100housing units north of Highway 17and west of 52nd Street (towardsthe ocean). This, along with theTsawwassen Golf and CountryClub redevelopment, may comeclose to being the number of unitswanted by the Century Group forthe Southlands. Those two develop-ments will significantly increaseour population from what we havetoday.

Where do we go? Enjoy summerwhile some of us sweat over thedetail. In the fall your council willbe out asking for more opinionsand you can express them at thattime.

Letters to the Editor

Editor:At its meeting on July

12, Delta council endorseda Metro Vancouver planwhereby the public willnot be consulted regardingthe location of a proposedwashroom/concession/future restaurant buildingon municipally-owned landat Centennial Beach.

Metro is planning toconstruct a combinationwashroom/concession withprovision for a future res-

taurant — a single buildingtrying to be all things toall users — in an area justnorth of the newly con-structed play area.

This location is a con-siderable distance from thecurrent washroom locationand main beach activityarea and is adjacent to asensitive habitat area.

Further, it appearsfrom Metro Vancouver’sCentennial Beach SiteConcept Plan that this

single structure is designedto service the entire beach/park area.

The assertion that pub-lic will not be consultedregarding the buildinglocation is contained in thecouncil report, CentennialBeach Concept Plan andWashroom/ConcessionBuilding ReplacementUpdate, available on Delta’swebsite.

Council endorsed Metro’splan for relocation of the

existing washroom/conces-sion building to this newsite despite the fact Metroacknowledges the new loca-tion is contentious, and thateven Delta council mem-bers (Scott Hamilton andRobert Campbell) argue isthe wrong location.

Council also instructedstaff to “enter into discus-sion regarding modifyingthe lease to address Metro’sconcerns with placingthe washroom/concession

building on municipalland.”

In addition to other pro-visions, Metro wants chang-es in its lease to “ensurethat Metro Vancouverretains the ability to builda destination restaurant at afuture date.”

Thus it appears Deltacouncil is prepared to enterinto a binding lease agree-ment with Metro to permitfuture construction of adestination restaurant, a use

that is not currently permit-ted on public use zonedparkland.

Once again, councilappears to be following itsown agenda without properpublic consultation.

In this case, it appears tobe willing to allow MetroVancouver planners to pro-ceed with whatever theydecide — without inputfrom park users or Deltaresidents.

Kent Warmington

Editor:Re: TFN plans add fuel

to the debate, Murphy’sLaw, July 14

The issue is not howmany more housing unitsTsawwassen residents need.They don’t need manymore, but new arrivals fromelsewhere surely will.

A July 2008 B.C. STATSreport titled “PeopleProjection 33” provides

data and projections. Itreads in part: “The majorfactor driving populationgrowth over this period[2007-2036] will be migra-tion to British Columbia.International migration willaccount for 75.1 per centof the population gain, fol-lowed by interprovincialmigration at 24.6 per cent,and natural increase (birthsminus deaths) at about 0.2

per cent.”Births currently exceed

deaths, but this is expectedto reverse over the projectedperiod. Interprovincialmigration comes and goesfrom year to year, I assumedepending on where thejobs are. The big increase,international migration, hasbeen reasonably constantfor years and is projectedto remain so, as long as

Canada welcomes one-quar-ter of a million immigrantsper year.

Anticipating its shareof B.C. growth, MetroVancouver, in its draftRegional Growth Strategy,allocates responsibility forplanning additional resi-dential units. For the timeperiod between 2006, thelast census data, and 2041,the region expects 37 per

cent growth. They allocate40 per cent (13,700 units)to Delta and 600 per centto TFN. TFN is expectedto grow from 300 to 2,100units!

Looks like Metro’snewest member takes itsregional obligations veryseriously!

Delta’s planners arelooking for places to put13,700 units — and they

can’t be in the Green Zone.Tsawwassen will get someshare.

That’s why we are beingencouraged to welcomeinfill, carriage houses,suites and tall buildings.

Since so many of usreally prefer our growthelsewhere, I complimentTFN on their plan and wishthem well.

Ed Ries

New arrivals put pressure on to construct thousands of housing units

Public input lacking on Centennial improvements

Warm WeatherCar CarePut your summer tires back on, get the paint protected and givethe interior a good cleaning - as well as taking care of any and allsummer maintenance which might be required.Here are some tips and points to ready your wheels for warmerweather and summertime road trips.Exterior:Wiper blades play an extremely important role in increasingvisibility. Replace every six months or when cracked, cut, torn,streaking or chattering.Check the tires’ tread depth. Also check the tire inflation andinspect the tread for uneven wear, which could indicate the needfor a wheel alignment. Also look for any bulges and bald spots.Check under the hood:Check all fluids. There are several fluids that require attention,including engine oil, power steering fluid, brake andtransmission fluids, windshield washer solvent and antifreeze/coolant. The antifreeze/coolant should be refreshed every two years. Review your service manual and changeany fluids that might need to be replaced, or take your ride to your favourite shop tohave the work done professionally. Don't take fluids lightly - many a mechanic says thatthey’re the life-blood of your vehicle. If you neglect them, you shouldn’t expect yourcar to be healthy for the long term. Also make sure to change your air filter on time aswell, as a plugged ordirty filter can costyou performance andmileage.Check hoses andbelts:A belt that failscan affect theelectrical system, airconditioning andpower steering, aswell as the coolingsystem. Coolingsystem hoses maybe deterioratingfrom within, so oldhoses and clampsthat appear to be inmarginal conditionmay need to bereplaced.Remember that nomatter how new andadvanced your carmight be, it still needsto be maintained.If not, it could emit50 percent morepollution or use50 percent morefuel than a vehiclewhich has beenneglected. Note thatsuch neglect willvoid your new-carwarranty. If you haveany questions aboutmaintenance, checkyour owners manual.

THANK YOU!

Safeway employees, customers and theCanada Safeway Foundation raised over

$1.5 Million

Employees from Maple Ridge Safeway

celebrating the results of the June campaign.

during the month of June for research in thefight against prostate cancer.

Together we can beat the odds against

prostate cancer

Funds raised from the June, 2010 campaign will support scientistsand clinicians at the Vancouver Prostate Centre. This team of someof the brightest research minds in Canada has been studying themolecular and cellular events involved in the process wherebycancers become resistant to hormone withdrawal therapy of prostatecancer patients. They have found that a protein called the “androgenreceptor” is critical for this type of treatment resistance and thatby eliminating this protein they can cause many tumours to die.Recently, they have had an exciting breakthrough discovery of anentirely new class of drugs that can effectively inhibit, and in somecases, eliminate this protein. With the support of Prostate CancerCanada and Safeway, they can continue to focus exclusively onfurther developing this promisingresearch. On behalf of the researchcommunity, thank you for helping inthe fight against prostate cancer.

Do you ever get bogged down inlife? Do you ever find yourself stuckin the mud of discouragement?

I have, and in wondering how toget unstuck, I recently stumbled uponPsalms 42 and 43 where the ancientpoet looked at himself in the mirrorand asked, “Why am I discouraged?Why is my heart so sad?”

We say that “misery loves com-pany” and perhaps that is why Ifound some encouragement simplyin reading those words. I think it wasencouraging to know that my dis-couragement was normal — that allkinds of people in all times and plac-es experience deep disappointment.

“My tears have been my food dayand night,” said the Psalmist.

Indeed, he looks in the mirror sev-

eral times and asks himself why hefeels like he’s just been run over bya truck.

So I wondered what he did toget out of the depths of despair.Fortunately he tells us. He saysremembering the good old daysonly made him more depressed, butremembering God and putting hishope in Him (not in himself) waswhat finally turned the tide.

The results weren’t instant (thoughwe have been taught by our culturethat everything should be!).

What is described is a kind ofmental and emotional wrestlingmatch in which faith and unbelief tryto pin each other to the mat. But Godis faithful when we keep clinging toHim.

Joyful chaos flourishedin one part of the church,while a more reflectiveatmosphere dominated theother part. Messy ChurchFiesta was in full flow.

On June 19, All SaintsAnglican Church hosted 14parishes from Tsawwassento Hope to experience thechurch’s monthly MessyChurch, and meet LucyMoore, the founder ofMessy Church in England.

Moore talked with theadults to help them as theyseek to establish MessyChurch in their parishes.Meanwhile, the youngstersrevelled in their crafts.

“We are helping youngfamilies, many of whomhave not had church con-nections, to have a joyfuland meaningful churchexperience,” said ElizabethNorthcott, rector of AllSaints. “Each month has atheme. To start with, chil-dren enjoy crafts around thetheme, before moving intothe church for a short storyand service, and families

end witha mealtogetherin thehall.”

AsNorthcottglancedtowardMooretalkingto theadults,she men-tionedhow lucky they were tohave her here.

“What a delightful per-son she is. She is helpingso many churches connectwith young families.”

Tia Allwood was busymaking her fiesta hat,while her mother Lori heldbaby Illaria in her arms.As two of the prime mov-ers of Messy Church, LoriAllwood and her husbandNeil are enthusiastic.

“We love the child-friendly service makingchurch fun and welcomingfor families,” said Allwood,

adding with a smile, “AndI don’t have to cook thatnight.”

For Tia, one memoryseems to linger: “It wassuch fun painting with ourfeet.”

When the crafts are com-plete, the service and storydone, and the meal eagerlyconsumed, it is just a mat-ter of some willing handsto bring a bit of order tothe church to ready it forSunday morning.

Moore left Ladner forKamloops and Edmonton tobring more encouragementto young families.

Ihad a colleague who lived in Carmel-by-the-Sea, Calif., years ago when herhusband was transferred there. Shesaid the name with wistful breathless-

ness and rolled her eyes heavenward at thememory: “Carmel.”

This sleepy village of just a few thou-sand (mostly millionaires), with its prox-imity to the ocean, Big Sur and ClintEastwood’s personal B&B, meant I couldn’tpass it up on a recent trip to the state’s Bayarea.

My guidebook told me it was theCalifornian version of New York’sHamptons. Well, then. My husband andI visited this spring to drive the dramaticoceanside Highway 1 just to the south ofCarmel, known as Big Sur.

Located about two hours south of SanFrancisco on the southern bend of theMonterey Peninsula, the tiny village hasno street numbers, parking meters orstreetlights, and no sidewalks outside ofthe “downtown” centered around OceanAvenue.

Residents must go to the central postoffice to retrieve their mail, and houses— many of them small hobbit-like cottages— are identified by either quaint namessuch as “Doll House” or “Sea Urchin,”or the more modern way, for example,“Lincoln Street, 4SE of 13th Avenue.”

The village keeps itself quaint by forbid-

ding any chain stores or restaurants. But itallows high-end boutiques such as LouisVuitton and Tiffany, to give you an idea ofthe residents.

There also appear to be far too manyjewelry stores and art galleries to supportthe population. Mainly, the streets were fullof tourists, either day-trippers or peoplerenting oceanside cottages.

Luckily, Eastwood’s Mission Ranch hadan official address, so we found it easily.But then, Eastwood was mayor of Carmel-by-the-Sea from 1986 to 1988, so I supposehe can do whatever he wants.

Eastwood acquired the ranch, completewith a herd of sheep and several cozy cot-

tages, in 1986 to save the property fromcondo development. We happened to arrivein Carmel the day after Eastwood’s 80thbirthday. At dinner at the ranch’s well-known restaurant, we overheard the tablenext to us discussing how servers broughtout cake and sang happy birthday the nightbefore, but Eastwood never showed up.

He doesn’t live on the property, our wait-er informed us, but has a home just downthe street, and shows up on the ranch often.

Then, while enjoying my fettuccinion the patio, The Man With No Nameappeared. He breezed by the unfazed diningguests and walked the short distance to thesheep field. He then hopped a fence to herd

the sheep into their pens, tossing a bale ofhay or two and chatting with the propertymanager.

Then he came back to the restaurant, gotin his minivan and left. Famous people!They’re just like us.

Still slightly stunned from witnessingEastwood’s sheep wrangling, we wentinside to the lounge and sat at the bar,where a piano player performed a kind ofhigh-class karaoke with people gatheredaround singing tunes. (The night gets alittle hazy from here.)

Now, to say a town where the averagecottage is a cool $2 million and street num-bers are not allowed produces some inter-esting characters is a bit of an understate-ment. Perhaps the fact we were the onlyones under 31 made us stand out as tour-ists, but we had no trouble making friends.

“These guys are fiercely competitive,” aregular to my right informed me, motioningtowards the karaoke singer. Moments later,he challenged me to try his favourite scotchafter noting my girlie glass of Glenfiddichon ice. (“Oh, you don’t take it neat?”) Ofcourse, I met this challenge.

Somewhere beyond 1 a.m., I noticed thatsome people in these parts clearly don’thave to get up for work on a Wednesday.My new friend said something vague aboutbeing in the construction industry. Hmm.

The next morning, I cursed his name.But even if I wanted to thank him, I wouldnever be able to; he doesn’t have a streetaddress to look up.

Staying hydrated keyin warmer weather

Staying hydratedthrough the sum-mer is crucial, andI am not talking

about Molson’s and mar-garitas.

We lose a majority of ourfluids through sweating and,if not properly replaced, wecan experience symptomsranging from fatigue toheadaches, weakness to drymouth and muscle crampsand nausea. These are notgreat symptoms to havewhen one is about to hit thetrack or the Fred Gingellstairs.

Heat and dehydration canaffect people in differentways. Children tend to gainheat faster, because theyhave a larger surface areain relation to body mass.Athletes and exercisers whospend hours competing andtraining in the sun often donot have adequate intake offluid to make up for the lossof fluids caused by theiractivities.

Outdoor workers, suchas landscapers, construc-tion crews, police officers,postal employees and otherswho spend most of theirdays in the heat, often havelittle time for bathroombreaks or for drinking fluidsand, as a result, may notconsume enough fluids dur-ing their workdays.

Heat can affect elderlypeople in a more profoundway, which is why it’sextremely important forsenior citizens to practice agradual acclimatization toheat that puts emphasis onhydration.

The best time to consumefluids is before you arethirsty. Once thirsty, yourbody is already in a mildstate of dehydration. When

it comes to working out,most people are not awarethat how much fluid theyconsume before their work-out will reflect whetherthey have a great workout, amediocre one or bonk half-way through.

Adults need 17 to 20ounces of fluid beforebeginning activity, as wellas an additional seven to10 ounces every 10 to 20minutes during activity. Andyour fluid needs don’t stopwhen your activity is over.You should consume 24ounces of fluid within thefirst two hours after outdooractivity.

Children need four toeight ounces of fluid beforebeginning outdoor activi-ties and five to nine ouncesevery 20 minutes whilethey are outside. Once kidsreturn from outside playor activity, they also needto consume 24 ouncesof fluids within the firsttwo hours after they havestopped their activities.

Not sure what an ounceis? One adult-size gulp offluid equals one ounce offluid, and one child-sizegulp of fluid equals one-half ounce of fluid.

Another popular wayto hydrate while exercis-ing is to drink a sportsdrink or vitamin water.I am not a fan of either,due to the sugar and extracalorie count these provide.However, I do agree weneed a beverage that replac-es the electrolytes we losethrough sweat and providescarbohydrate energy to theworking muscles.

I recommend a greatproduct I found at ThriftyFoods called Sport Vega.These single-serving pack-ets mix right in your waterand add a bit of flavour aswell as vitamins and elec-trolytes, and all at less than60 calories a packet.

I also get my clients tosprinkle a little bit of unre-fined sea salt in their water.

The sea salt replaces all theminerals and sodium welose by sweating. Do notfret about increasing yoursodium count with sea salt.Unrefined sea salt doesnot react with the body thesame way table salt does.In fact, I do all my cookingand baking with this prod-uct too.

Other Hot WeatherTips:

• While pouring waterover your head might feelgood, it does not have anyaffect on your core bodytemperature. Make sureyou put plenty of water andother fluids into your body.

• Always wear light-coloured and loose-fittingclothing.

• Keep drinks accessiblewhen exercising. Store allfluids in easy-to-use con-tainers that can be openedwithout disrupting yourexercise.

• Carry a hydration packfor convenience.

• Wear a hat to protectyour head and shield youreyes from the sun.

• Ease into summerexercise. It takes the bodyaround 14 days to accli-matize itself to the heat.Slowly add onto your inten-sity with each workout.

• Exercise first thing inthe morning.

• Protect yourself withsunglasses and sunscreen.

• Put your water bottle inthe freezer overnight for anice-cold treat while work-ing out.

• Know your meds. Manymedications aggravate theeffects of the heat on the

body. Anything from decon-gestants to antidepressantscan intensify dehydrationand decrease your body’sability to sense it. Even caf-feine and alcohol can causedehydration a lot faster.

“If you would understandyour own age, read theworks of fiction produced init. People in disguise speakfreely.” — Arthur Helps.

After all the excitementof recent rambles, let’s getback to “plain living andhigh thinking,” to use aphrase I heard my motheruse occasionally. Here’s areference to a Tsawwassendeveloper in the form of alimerick by Ken Oakley:

Here’s to Ron Toigo, aman of great skills,

Wants to change the golfcourse down there in thehills,

A new clubhouse andnew greens,

And new homes so itseems,

Made plain and simplewithout many frills.

All right, I know it’s nota perfect limerick, but it hasa reasonable resemblance tothat form of poetry.

***The introductory quo-

tation that opened thisramble has absolutely noth-ing to do with the subjectof Coastal Fishes of thePacific Northwest by AndyLamb and Phil Edgell andpublished by a firm thathas long been in the centreof a fishing area, namelyHarbour Publishing ofMadeira Park.

Written by a marinebiologist and illustrated bya prize-winning underwaterphotographer, this workidentifies over 250 fishby species and commonnames. It’s illustrated with250 labelled sketches and550 colour photographs.

The information pro-vided for each fish givesdetailed descriptions ofhabitat, distribution andbehaviour. Sections presentcatching tips for anglersand commercial fishermenalong with location hintsfor divers, beachcombersand pleasure boaters, andcooking ideas for seafoodgourmets — everything thata fisherman, diver or natu-ralist needs to know. It’s abook that will be given apermanent position in mypersonal library.

***Another book received

for review from HarbourPublishing is Boat CampingHaida Gwaii by NeilFrazer, but I doubt it willbe a part of my library andwill end up on the BlueSerenity, the 45-foot power-sailer of the Darlingtons atDuncan.

The wild archipelago ofHaida Gwaii, 150 islandsoff our west coast, is a sliceof Canadian geographythat’s hard to ignore. Withinformation on ancientnative settlements, hiddencampsites and everythingin between, this is the per-fect guide for kayakers andsmall boat voyagers eagerto explore the natural beau-ty of the area.

This comprehensiveguide has a wide rangeof maps and photographsoffering field-tested pad-dling and boating routesto the islands’ attractions.Detailed information isgiven about Masset andJuskatla inlets, HaidaGwaii’s great inland sea.

Descriptions are given ofcampsites and lots of infor-mation on bear safety, tidesand currents (not the ediblekind) and information aboutthe history and culture ofthe Haida.

By now we have all read howskin care has advanced from laserphoto facials, to eliminate brownpigmentation and red vascularlesions, to chemical peels thatstimulate cell regeneration, toMicrodermabrasion which exfoliatesto the deepest level and also stimu-lates cell regeneration, to Doctorperformed Botox and Juvederminjectable treatments for softeninglines and wrinkles.

While these advanced therapiesare amazing at reversing the signsof aging, one shouldn’t forget thatthere are 365 days in a year andtherefore we must remember thebasics if we are going to sustainbeautiful skin and not forget tomaintain our skin with the new-est advanced skin care products inbetween our treatments at home.

The use of a good sun screen ona daily basis rain or shine, all yearround is one of the most important

tools one can use because even whenthe sun doesn’t shine there are agingrays that cause free radical damage.

Exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate. Ifyou have been to a spa you haveprobably heard from your estheticianthat exfoliation is very important tomaintain beautiful skin. As we ageour epidermal layers (outer layers)of our skin increase in thickness,causing the skin to look duller andprevent our natural moisturizing fac-tors to rise to the surface to moistur-ize and protect the skin. The Dermiswhere blood vessels, collagen,elastin, oil glands and hair folliclesare contained starts to lose density.These two factors lead us to believethat exfoliation removes the excessheavy burden of the dead cells toprevent lines from forming and alsoin the case of oily skin prevents theoil from blocking, causing blemishes,therefore concluding that exfoliationis good for all skin types.

There are so many options avail-able to treat skin conditions in thespa from advanced age defying treat-ments to problematic acne skin, orsimply to maintain healthy skin.We suggest that you find an esthe-tician you can trust to work with.Estheticians at Atlantis Day Spaare highly trained in skin care andhave a number of professional andalso pharmaceutical grade skin careproducts to help you choose yourhome care and achieve your bestpersonal results. Receiving spa treat-ments will boost the results you canachieve, and using your personalizedprescribed home care will maintainthose results between your treat-ments.

Aveda products are not formulatedwith Sodium Lauryl Sulfate

Aveda strives to ensure their products will not onlybenefit customers through exceptional performance, butwill positively impact the people and economies fromwhich the product’s ingredients are sourced. This effortis supported by the beauty company’s development of a“green ingredients” policy.

Aveda has been phasing out parabens from its existingproduct formulas; as well as, developing new formulaswithout parabens. This effort started in 2005 andmanufacturing of the last products still formulated withparabens ended on September 30, 2009.

Since 2000, Aveda has substantially increased purchasesof organic rawherbal ingredientsand organicessential oilsfrom 20% - 25%of total tonnageto 89-90%. Theexact percentagevaries slightlyfrom year to yeardue to product mixand availabilityof certifiedingredients.

Aveda productsare not formulatedwith SodiumLauryl Sulfate.

Cove Links professional Daryl Stubbscontinued his impressive play this sum-mer with a sixth place finish at last week’sSenior CPGA Championship in Milton, ON.

The Tsawwassen resident finished at evenpar after firing rounds of 71-69-76 to earn$1,400. The top of the leaderboard featureda pair of B.C. players familiar to Canadiangolf fans as Jim Rutledge cruised to a10-shot victory with a 17 under total thatincluded a course record 62 in the secondround. Runner-up was longtime PGA Tourregular Dave Barr.

Earlier, Stubbs earned alternate statusfor the upcoming U.S. Senior Open at theSahalee Country Club in Sammamish, WAafter shooting a 73 at a sectional qualifierin Salem, OR. He was just one shot back ofthe winning score.

The 51-year-old teaching pro wasalso second at the PGA of B.C. SeniorChampionship in Chilliwack.

Extra holes ...Former Beach Grove junior standout and

now Victoria resident Bree Sharratt tookhome the B.C. Women’s Mid-Amateur title

in Cobble Hill, topping the leaderboard at13-over 229.

After the completion of the final Mid-Amateur round, two-time B.C. Women’sAmateur champion Christina Proteau ofPort Alberni was tied for first with Sharratt.

However, the final Mid-Amateur group-ing was each assessed a one stroke penaltyfor failing to make the pace of play guide-lines.

The penalty was appealed unsuccessfullyand resulted in Sharratt emerging as theMid-Amateur champion.

“I was really nervous the first two days– I haven’t played in a tournament in ayear,” says Sharratt. “My dad was my cad-die and he kept me calm and helped me lineup my putts to go in the hole. Lots went in- especially today!”

“I’ve always wanted to win the Mid-Amateur title – I’m pretty excited. This isgreat!”

Sharratt, 32, enjoyed an impressive col-legiate career at Colorado State Universitywhere she was a four-time Academic All-American.

Tsawwassen pro sixth at CPGA Senior Championship

No easy path to nationals for PioneersThird place finish means senior lacrosse team on collision course with two-time defending champs in semis

So much for the best teamon paper in franchise historyproducing an easy path tonext month’s national cham-pionships.

The Ladner Pioneers(12-3-1) have plenty ofwork to do if they want tobe representing B.C. at thePresident’s Cup in Burnabyafter a disappointing thirdplace finish in league play.

The result means a best-of-three quarter-final seriesagainst the Valley Rebels.They should take care oftheir Abbotsford opponentin prompt fashion but thenwill have a quarter-final datewith longtime rival Tri-CitiesBandits (13-2-1). The two-time defending West CoastSenior Lacrosse Associationchampions have swept thePioneers out of the playoffsin each of the past two sea-sons.

Ladner had opened the2010 campaign with sevenstraight wins and an unbeat-en regular season didn’tseem out of the question. Itsroster was loaded with onetime prominent WLA play-ers and even NLL regulars.

The Pioneers first hic-cup was a 12-10 loss tothe Bandits back on June10. They rebounded withthree straight wins but thendropped another pivotalgame at home — 10-8 to

the eventual regular seasonchampion Burnaby Burrards(14-1-1).

Two nights later, theywere stunned 11-6 by theRoyal City Capitals and sud-denly a first place finish wasall but dead.

The Pioneers still had anoutside shot at earning anopening round bye for theplayoffs but that ended whenthey could only manage a6-6 tie with the Burrards onJuly 7.

They finished with a los-ing record (1-2-1) againstthe two teams above them inthe standings — a trend thatmust change over the nextfew weeks.

“It’s time we get it alltogether and see what thisteam is made of,” saidLadner head coach RossFrehlick. “Looking back, theloss to Royal City is whatreally hurt us. We took a tonof penalties, but that is stillno excuse. We also simplyhave to score more goalsagainst a team like Burnaby.They have a goalie who hasplayed well and given ustrouble.”

Even with Kyle Goundrey,Trent Smalley and SeanKelly among the top 10 inleague scoring and localstandout Gary Bining backin town for the playoffs,Frehlick didn’t sit still whenfinalizing his roster at theJuly 1 deadline.

The team added former

WLA rookie-of-the-yearKevin Olson and NationalLacrosse League veteranSpencer Martin. Both werekey members of the BurnabyLakers dominance in theB.C. Junior “A” LacrosseLeague.

To make room for theadditions, the Pioneers hadto release three playersincluding Tyler Lietz whohad produced 25 points in10 games.

“Tyler is a good kid whoI like a lot,” added Frehlick.

“He is young and athleticbut unfortunately we hadsome difficult decisions tomake.”

Look for Ladner to alsomake a change in net forthe first time in nearly twodecades as Matt Morehouse

is expected to get the bulk ofthe work in the post-seasonover veteran Rob Cook.

The opening round seriesagainst the Valley Rebelsbegan last night in Ladner.Game two goes Sunday inAbbotsford.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections July 18 - 24★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Aries March 21 - April 19: A truly romanticmonth begins July 22. Two years of slow sloggingin work end, but your relationships begin a two-yearphase of sobriety and “slow movement.” Now tolate 2012, if you take an antagonistic approach thebest you’ll win is freedom; you’ll lose in most else.Until October 2012, these do not work: chasing lovefor ego reasons, seeking recognition, fame, tryingto optimistically sell to new clients. These do work:loyalty (e.g., old clients, present spouses) romancewith other generations, career partnerships, co-operation. Tuesday night: understanding brings joy!

Taurus April 20-May 20: Remain flexible, curious,restless and talkative until mid-week. You couldobtain a last-minute agreement Sunday-Tuesday.Secrets, investments, intimacy, lifestyle choicesare important and fortunate Tuesday eve/night.But be cautious with these Wednesday/Thursday.Thursday begins a month of home-related, security,family, property and similar themes (gardening,landscaping, nutrition, kid’s welfare, etc.) Thisweek also begins 26 months of slowness in work,employment, machinery and health zones. Kids willbe more work. Rewards come from hard work. Avoidlawsuits. You’ll be fine!

Gemini May 21-June 20: Thursday begins a four-week period of heightened communications, travel,restlessness and casual friendships. You’ll generallylove this time. Be curious, ask questions, go exploring,open newspapers. Now to October 2012, your lovesand pleasures meet sobriety. Romance, hobbies,sports, risk-taking, creative projects and the pursuitof pleasure – all become harder, slower. But this areacan succeed if you’re prepared to be responsible andloyal. Romance could flower with an older or youngerperson. You’ll succeed in research, investments, sexand health. This week’s future plan is wrong.

Cancer June 21-July 22: Chase romance, pleasure,beauty and creative or sports success Sunday toTuesday – you’ll ride a winning streak! Jobs begunTuesday night will succeed. Thursday begins aproductive four-week phase of earnings, spending,memory and other possessions. But this weekalso begins 26 months of increased responsibilityin domestic arenas, with kids, property, security,nutrition and all foundational concerns. You’ll haveto work harder at these, and you might decide to letgo of some situations (or relationships) that are justtoo much work. This week’s “career partnership” ideawon’t work. Wait.

Leo July 23-Aug.22:You travel a lucky money streak(to Aug. 6) so take advantage, buy luxury items, ask fora pay raise, negotiate a deal, etc. DON’T overspend.Money can flow through you like water, and youcould end up poorer, despite taking more in! (If you’reinto self-knowledge, look at the underlying reasons:Guilt? Lack of optimism?) Your weeks of wearinessend Thursday, when a month of energy, charisma,effectiveness and clout begin! However, this isn’t agood week to start major projects. A romantic notionends. The two years ahead slow communications, yetmake this a fertile employment field.

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Every party must end,every high note yield to a quieter one. Have yourfun (and travel, contact people) Sunday to Tuesday.Be domestic, rest up mid-week. (Real estate, kids’savings plans are lucky Tuesday night.) Thursdaybegins a month of quietude, rest and retreat.However, a bunch of social influences will keep youinteractive: your graciousness will continue; but yoursmouldering sexuality will yield to talkativeness. Still,get your rest. Contemplate, plan, do charitable things,deal with government agencies. DO NOT invest,change your life, or “start sex” this week.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: No fireworks, but thisweek is a turning point. Now to October 2012, youwill be more sober, practical, no-nonsense. You willbe determined to put your life on a sound foundation,especially in real estate, family and similar areas.Yes, retirement’s coming! You’ll do this slowly andcarefully. A major or basic change might be involved:e.g., relocation. Relationships need to be looked at.If you’ve been a party type, that ends for two years.Thursday starts a month of travel, talk, friends,errands. Be curious! DON’T start a relationship ornegotiations this week; one might end.

Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Mellow yields tofunctional. Thursday ends weeks of fairly relaxedpondering, love, cultural pursuits, understandingand begins a month of ambition, prestige and careereffort. Dress well, be prepared to meet bosses,higher-ups. But don’t start any work projects yet– wait until next week. This week ends two yearsof restricted socializing. Now to October 2012 you’llmeet fairly easy progress in many areas. However,dealings with government agencies, institutions andhead office might be burdensome – more red tape,more communication levels with which to deal: effortneeded.

Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Lie low, work in thebackground Sunday to Tuesday. Think about yourfuture, and how to get there. Your energy returnsTuesday eve to Thursday – but this is not a goodweek to start any project – or romance. Work onwhat’s already started, on research, finances, health,intimacy and safety. Thursday begins a month ofmellow love and understanding, intellectual prowess,higher education, far travel, cultural involvements.Two years of hard career burdens end now; but twoyears of sober social activity begin, involving othergenerations or money (e.g., take the boss golfing).

Capricorn Dec.22-Jan.19:Relationshipsmove fromcentre-stage to “under-stage” – they begin to operatesecretly, subconsciously, or intimately. In business,you move from negotiation to actual funding.You bondmore deeply, or break apart.This, for the month ahead.The present week brings another turning point: twoyears of philosophical outlook, of learning or studyingsituations, ends. A two-year career, ambition, prestigeand status phase, the most important in 30 years,begins. Live up to it! Start nothing this week excepta security or realty deal. Happiness, Sunday-Tuesday!Power, energy late week.Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: At last, a month ofweariness and drudgery ends – so do two years offinancial restrictions! The weeks ahead bring freshhorizons, competition, opportunities, fights and loves,negotiation and litigation. The rancour and intensityof last winter and spring has fled, so if you’re in afight, it’s possible to work out a deal; if you don’t,August/September could bring a lawsuit, a long,dreary, unprofitable one. If you aren’t fighting, theweeks ahead bring exciting meetings, intimateaffections, sweet whispers. Careful with your speechthis week: stray words return to bite.Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: The past two yearshave brought restrictions, even disappointment inrelationships. If you’ve succeeded, found love or finepartners, healed bonds, it has only come through hardwork. Now, this phase ends. The two years ahead(to October 2012) transfer this need for “hard work”to your sexual and financial spheres. You can trulyachieve your dreams in these areas – if you work hardto that end. Nothing comes of nothing. The monthahead features work, heath and machines. Be wiseSunday-Tuesday, ambitious mid-week, social Friday/Saturday. Don’t spend big, nor start a money project.
