What they are saying...

Please continue to keep the programming going as it is. It's very tastefully done, music is easy listening and meaningful to us and many of our friends. (by the way, many of our friends switched to cable 422, Memories, along with us & turned the radio off - all because of Raif's cheap talk) We've enjoyed your station for around 11 years, since retiring to Abbotsford from Calgary.
 
On Saturdays, we enjoyed listening to Brian Minter for many years, and did not care about the 'Guys at the Workshop' coming on, but listening to them a couple of times at the very beginning, convinced us that they are great, SO many helpful hints for everyday living, as well, entertaining. Those two shows are really not 'talk shows' as they involve practical information from everyday people, in an informative way for everyday living. I've asked them a couple of questions via Internet & received straight & fast answers, which I really appreciate.
 
We've never called Fred & Gerry, but get all the info we need from others calling in. I've called Brian on a couple of occasions, but also, receive much information by his interaction with callers & the information he gives out. Coming from Calgary, his info about the garden is invaluable, even tho' we live in a townhouse where some gardening things are done, I still love the gardening that I can do & use his advice, & what he recommends to listeners, exclusively.
 
THANK YOU SO MUCH, for your programming now, music, news & informative info daily. We can once again enjoy 600am all day long.
 
Very satisfied listeners, again,
 
Margarita & Lloyd

Hi Guys
Just a quick note to say thanks for the terrific gift. I was one of your callers  and you drew my name out of the ol' paint bucket for the Weiser Lock system.
 
It arrived about a week after the draw and although it is not quite attached to the door....sometimes I don't ride the same day I saddle!!!......that is my description of procrastination, it will be on soon.
 
Take care and thanks again.

Hi Guys

I recently won the carpet cleaning from CanStar. Thanks so much. My carpets needed cleaning so much I was thinking of replacing them. But this great company really got them clean and I think I will keep them.
Anyhow, it was a wonderful win and I thank you.

Hello Fred and Gerry,   Just a note,  We enjoy your weekly radio show immensely and wouldn't miss it, Also enjoy your web sight very much, You each deserve a medal for these wonderful sources of information.  Sincerely Jock, and Margaret Fairholm.

 

Dear Fred & Gerry,
I wanted to thank you for the $1,200 gift certificate from United Shakes that I won from your website. The work on our roof has now been completed and we couldn't be happier with the results. It was a pleasure to meet with Michael Brewka, the regional sales manager for United Shakes, who estimated and clearly explained the work that was necessary.  Blair and Charles from United Shakes showed up early each morning (even in the most dismal of weather conditions) and quickly set to work running up and down that ladder all day cleaning, repairing, and restoring our roof. I really appreciated that they tarped all the property around our home before power washing the roof to protect our plants, pool, and porch area. They also took down our Christmas lights, (which might have remained up all year!) cleaned our gutters, repaired a joint in our gutter which had been leaking for years, put netting over an area the birds continually are nesting in, and washed the vinyl siding and surrounding area of our home. Their work goes far beyond what I expected! Thanks again for providing the ability to win such a great prize, our home has never looked better!  We now own a beautifully restored cedar roof and can look forward to extending our roof-life by at least another 10 leak-free years!
                                                                             Yours in appreciation,
                                                                                      Laurel Thomas
 
Hi Guys,
 
Love your show .... many great tips! 
 
I want to thank-you for mentioning the humidex and what it does for your home.  I had one installed by Allcan Humidex and I do not have wet windows and that musty smile has now disappeared .... yeah.  It has also helped with Allergies!
Great product.
 
Great show ... Keep it up Guys.

Hi Fred and Gerry,

I've just come back from seeing your presentation at the Victoria Home Show. I've never been to a home show, and I have to say that your presentation was the highlight of the show for my friend and I.

It was funny and informative!

Thanks bunches!

Fred and Gerry
 
Thank you very much for referring me to Pauls RV in Langley. It's finished and  looks great and so far doesn't leak and I don't expect it will.  Paul was great in explaining everything he was going to do and his pictures are now on his web site http://www.paulsmobilerv.com/rv.html(Southwind) which you wish to have a look see. The internet is really great. Paul actually did the original quotation from pictures I had sent him. This, in my mind, says - - - he knows his business.
In view of the cost of Applying the decals, I decided to do that myself, probably next spring unless I can fine a covered area somewhere.
 
Thanks again,

Dear Fred & Gerry,

 I just wanted to extend my thanks to you for referring me to True North Restorations on your website. For many years we have had people stumbling over our sinking sidewalk at our front entrance. Short of facing a lawsuit, we decided to finally call someone about this. I can't tell you how wonderful it was to go to your website and call Cal Warkentin at True North Restorations. Cal came over to the house within a couple of hours, gave me a reasonable estimate and completed the job the very next day. You'd never know we ever had a problem with the sidewalk they did such a great job. Thank you for providing a reliable company to save the hassle and headache of finding one on my own. Really appreciate the service you provide both on and off the radio!
                                 With much appreciation,
                                               Laurel Thomas

Thanks for the web site info. I ordered some and it should be here in another week and a half. You "guys" have one great show. Claudia Murray. Washington State
 

After hearing Rocky describe his services on your program recently, I called him.  He came out earlier this week and now I feel that my burglar alarm system is secure.  He arrived when he said he would, got right at the job after describing what was going to happen, then when he was finished, showed me what he had done.  I am happy with the results and told Rocky I would let you know this.  I hope his exposure on your program will spread the word for him.

 
I never miss your show and enjoy it.  I have learned a lot of very helpful things from it.  Thanks a lot.
