I have an idea for a new game based on something my socials class did. How it works is you provide a clue that plays on a citie's name and then the other people make a guess. For example: A cover for a van. The answer is Vancouver. Hopefully this will help pass some time when we are waiting for service notices. ;D
Here is the first one: Costello's Chevy.

Here is the first one: Costello's Chevy.Ford isn't related to Chevy, but they're both car-names, so in this context I'd guess "Abbotsford". My turn: Billy's Puddle

"Williams Lake" should be pretty this time of year.
So should "Silver Creek."
Congrats Flug on your new runabout. So are you hosting a Ferry Geeks party on board next weekend? Music provided by none other than yourself of course. Overnight I hope - bring your sleeping bags folks we can camp out in the upper lounge.

Gold River is a nice town, or was when people were living there. Nearby is Nootka Sound and Island, and a spot where Capt. Cook visited that I'll call " Acting-nicely sheltered-anchorage". re my new ship, the Q-Richmond, it always seems to be in the shop getting work done. I have had very few opportunities to take her for a ride this summer. The nerd-lounge is still under construction.....

"Friendly Cove" is one place on the west coast of the Island I haven't seen. This will be my last one for today so others can play too, I have also only been once to "the place with a french name for the gourmet egg shaped light mousse like thingys." Hint it isn't on the coast and spelled different but sounds the same. Flug don't tell me you can't manage your refits better than BCFC? If you don't get that boat out of there she will be in refit more than the Big Fat Greek Ferry.

Beautiful area I must go now, I'm moving tomorrow.... to a place where they burn bees...

I hope you enjoy your new house in Burnaby. If I wanted to move I'd move to "A very wealthy town".

So is eating a "Sandwich with cow in it".... Would you be referring to a "Cow-wich"?...Isn't that a beef or a steak sandwich? I would have rather chose "Kung-Fu Bovine". Or in other words "Cowichan", am I right? I Guess it's my turn. How Bout..."No one can pronounce it right"...This could have multiple meanings...But which one

Here's one I just thought of:
The place where money flows freely!

It wouldn't fit the game but the place where money flows the fastest is Ottawa. However, Cache Creek is probably what you have in mind. How about the Harbour for Rita's boat?
