willwhit's a ferry ride away21:08
willwhor a 12min flight21:08
BobJonkman1Flight?!? Seems extravagant21:09
willwhit is rather21:10
willwhbut it sure beats 1.5 hours on the ferry21:10
willwhafter you've done it a few times21:10
BobJonkman1I've only been on 20min ferry rides, so that's my frame of reference21:10
BobJonkman1Although it's a 1.5 hour ferry ride from Tobermory to South Baymouth.  Did that once or twice21:11
BobJonkman1Expensive too21:11
willwhyeah - getting to vancouver isn't terribly cheap21:13
willwhI really miss living in the UK ;p21:13
BobJonkman1I've never been to the UK. Would like to do that someday21:15
azendBobJonkman1: I've actually known about it for a while but never thought to mention it :P22:35
BobJonkman1azend: Are you going to the Guelph Open Data Hackathon?23:08
azendI'm thinking about it23:08
azendthe data currently out there kinda sucks23:08
azendmany of their data sets have been out for years now and are completely inaccurate23:09
BobJonkman1So pop an event on the LoCo portal. You can be the token Ubuntu-ca rep23:09
BobJonkman1Because prizes!23:09
BobJonkman1I wish we still had give-away disks.23:10
BobJonkman1I just read the summary of the LoCo Council's survey; only 47 teams across the globe are eligible for disks for 14.04. Hope we're one of them23:11
