Ok, so I am trying to win a bet here. A friend and me have been arguing for about 3 hours now as to the distance of CFB Gagetown from Halifax.


I said its about 4.5-5 hours depending on how many old people are on the highway and my friend said its 12 hours.

So someone that has been there if you actually know the time it takes to go from halifax to there or from there to hfx, I'd appreciate it, I want my $50.

For God's sakes, look on a map and use your imagination.

i loaded up google maps and showed her the location, but she won't hand over the $50 until she gets another opinion.

I'll be up that way in about 3 weeks -- can you have her hold the $50 until I confirm how long it takes?

she will most likely spend the $50 on booze before then.

Then give her $10 and wait until she passes out, and then get your fiddy
