Ok, here it is...bear in mind, this shows only the DOS partition on the card. I also have an ext4 partition on the 128GB.

Ahhaaa!
Gurgled did you? :D
Uclulet is a lovely place...the pacifc side of the island is beautiful...lotsa parkland...lotsa beach....biiiggg waves good for surfin...strong stiff continuous breeze...nice in july-august...before and after...chilly...dramatic...lotsa rain all the time...breathtaking winter storms..(we are a northern rainforest out here on the coast) ...go out there often in season and out.
I'm on the more eastern side facing the continent...the weather is more pre-drought California-like...the storms and rain comes off the pacific....hit the west side of the island...and both north and south tips of the island as well...but the island mountains stop the rain where I am....and the winters aren't as harsh....I get more sunlit hours than anywhere in the country...milder weather and fresher..cleaner air and water...typically our summers are 25-30 degrees Celsius and our winter....it can go down to zero...snows a couple times and is usually is gone the same day...usually a high of 8-12 degrees Celsius ...and our spring and fall 15-20 degrees...lotta beautiful mountains to ski...lakes to swim and paddle...trails to hike/ bike...islands to explore...luverly really...

And how's Thailand treatin' you macey? Nice and warm I hope....been once...beautiful country filled with beautiful and kind people...from my limited experience

@endsormeans
I was there in 2010, did the Canada coast to coast rail journey. Absolutely loved Canada. Vancouver Island was beautiful. Did some diving there.
Also, if you must live in a city, Vancouver takes some beating....
Yes, when not in the UK, I live in a little town in northern Thailand, lovely place & people.

Ah...you did the rail!
Beautiful way to see the country in comfort...
Yea...Van is a great cosmo-city...one of the best...but it's still a city...got its probs with homelessness...violence...increasingly unbearable (to my way of thinking) traffic congestion...but that appears to be everywhere there is pop density nowadays...mind I think a traffic standstill of more than 5-10 min is unbearable....and if you can't get to where you want to be inside an hour ...there's a problem..Lived in metropoli ...loved it for what it was...the diversity...the energy...shopping :D.....but reality is I'm outback, wilderness and country to the core.
Can't stand not hearing birdsong, frogs and crickets...
Can't stand not going for a daily hike in the bush...
ah well....
Anywho...if you are ever planning to go out to Vancouver Island again ...tell me...and we'll have you over for a weekend to chillax.

I managed to get my 128 MB Sandisk card to work yesterday.

However I could not format it on the N900, please give details of how to do that or provide a link. The card was never recognized. I ended up formatting it using NTFS on my Windows 7 PC, which was recognized fine by the phone afterwards.
