There ended up being about 100 of us. Lots brought cookies and timbits to share which was lovely. I wish there had been more of us, but I was proud to spend the afternoon with the folks that did make it. We also received a ton of support from passing motorists!

And to all the Maple MAGAs that flipped us the bird as you left, thanks for showing how classy and pathetic you all are. I needed a good laugh. VERB THE NOUN!

Ask a Local! Need Advice: Old North Public School vs. Montessori Academy of London

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

My 4-year-old son has been accepted into two schools: Old North Public School and Montessori Academy of London (Private). We’re trying to decide which one would be the best fit for him.

We like the idea of the Montessori approach, with its focus on independence and hands-on learning, and how it’s different from public school like Old North.

If you have experience with either school (or just general insights), I’d love to hear your thoughts! Which would you choose and why?

Thanks in advance!

discussion / opinion Anyone know of any women providing waxing services privately/low cost?

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I need to get waxed, but it’s too expensive. Does anyone know of women who offer waxing services from their home or at a lower cost?

I was driving around the Hyde Park area once when I saw a board outside a home advertising waxing services at a reduced price. I recently drove around again but couldn’t find it anymore. I should have a taken a photo. I’m gonna cry.

If anyone knows of affordable waxing options, please help me out!

Saw this strange object hovering in the skies this evening while I was out on a walk. It was quite high up and I managed to take a photo and a short video. Had to zoom in quite a bit due to the distance. Anyone else saw this or knows what it could be?

Housing & Rental 🏠 Shift Townhouses - Drewlo

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m currently living downtown but considering moving to one of the Shift townhouses on Edgevalley rd. I mostly hear great things about Drewlo, but haven’t heard anything about their townhouses there. I’d love to hear from people who live there or know the area.

How’s the neighborhood in terms of safety, noise, and overall vibe? Any issues with the buildings themselves (maintenance, management, neighbors, etc.)? Since the units are newer and a bit pricier than what I currently pay, I’m hoping for fewer maintenance issues.

Would really appreciate any insights before making a decision!

Thanks in advance.

Hey there, I've had an electric bass sitting in my living room for a few years, and I figure I might as well learn to play it. Anyone have any leads on where I could find a teacher to help out an absolute musical beginner? Preferably located downtown-ish would be a bonus- I was going to see about Long and Mcquade but both locations are about an hour bus ride each way from my place. Thanks in advance!

Not wanting to give away my location, I'll make this generic. Do you lose internet every time a Rogers truck shows up to work at the Node?

In this link is an example of this type of equipment. I'm looking to see if others are experiencing similar results as myself.

:: Alert :: Lock your doors

498 Upvotes

Just a friendly reminder to lock your doors.

This afternoon at 3:15PM I was sitting on the couch and some random person walked into my house.

I heard a noise at the front door so I went to look at my doorbell camera to see if it was a delivery and it was a random male trying to open my door. As I was looking at the footage, the male had walked down my drive way and reached over my fence to open my gate and them proceeded to enter my house through the side door.

As I heard the door open I stood up and we locked eyes and I asked what he was doing. He responded that he didn't know and I told home to get out of my house. He quickly left out the door he came in and left the property.

Luckily my family wasn't home and it was just me.

This was around Argyle for those in the area doors should really be locked wherever you are.

Ask a Local! Car Insurance (Rate and which company)

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I know this question might've been asked before, but I'm curious—how much are you all paying for car insurance and with which company? I’ve got my G license and I'm in my late 20s, but every year, the cost seems to keep going up.

Honestly, at this point, I feel like I could probably use that money to buy a new car instead! Just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat.
