Looking to get a custom shirt and sweater made
I see some websites but they’re all either the wrong material or requires a minimum purchase order
Shirt and sweater have to be 100% cotton
Saw ads on Facebook for Yoke Group leasing 64 Hatt, the Millworks building in Dundas that was formerly under Forge & Foster ownership.
With F&F going all but bankrupt, it would appear Yoke has taken it over. Yoke & F&F (and their management) have always maintained a very close relationship, including running joint projects and businesses (such as the now mostly defunct "Ambitious Realty"). Yoke normally has the same M.O. with slightly more polish.
Would welcome anymore background or info, but caution is advised if you're looking at leasing your business here or with them.
Anyone know of any good bars that show premier league games?
I’m new to Hamilton and looking to take my dog for an urgent (but not emergent) ear hematoma drainage. Our regular vet won’t be able to see him until Wednesday, and he really needs it drained asap.
Wondering if anyone has had good or bad experiences at this hospital? Google reviews are mixed, and I just want to make sure my pup is getting safe care. Don’t know why but my gut instinct was maybe to not go here… just thought it was odd that they were able to see him so quickly when we called, but maybe they’re just well-staffed on weekends?
Any insight helps. Thanks all
A middle aged white man (because of course) is currently at the corner of King and John with graphic abortion imagery you may wish to avoid.
I don't know why this practice is allowed in Hamilton; it is banned in London ON and other communities)
Just a heads up for people who have outdoor cats. I saw a coyote coming out of an alley near Brucedale and Upper Wentworth today. That's 1 block north of Fennel.
It was keeping its distance from me and a family that was on the other side of the road. But it was heading towards Fennel.
I see them around the rail trail sometimes but haven't seen one in the neighbourhood before today.
Can anyone here recommend a business that specialize in wall mounting a tv in the Hamilton area? Thanks
I need to schedule a bulk garbage pickup to get rid of some old furniture. One item is a broken dresser that will be in many pieces. Is each individual piece counted toward the four maximum?
There are 8 drawers plus the frame and I’m wondering if I have to schedule multiple pick ups. Also, do I need to take apart each drawer and bundle them? City is closed today which is why I’m asking here.
Thanks!
We're planning a wedding for the summer of 2026 for 85 guests and are likely going to do the reception at a Banquet Hall in Ancaster (much more affordable than any other "nicer" venues we've looked at). However, we don't like the indoor space they offer for the ceremony so we're thinking of doing the ceremony/photos somewhere separate as the banquet hall is in an industrial area.
Any recommendations for ceremony only spaces in Hamilton/Burlington area or within 30ish minutes? Really would like the ceremony spot to have nicer outdoor spots for photos but also a back up plan for rain. Budget ~1000-1500
Thanks in advance for suggestions!
Having some storage issues. Thinking of getting a waterproof deck box.
Does anyone know if I can keep sunbrella outdoor Cushions in a deck box over Hamilton winter or am I setting myself up for trouble when I pull them out in spring?
We’ve been experiencing very slow, patchy and unreliable internet the last few weeks. We’ve been with cogeco for more than 15 years and haven’t had issues like this. When it was completely out recently, a technician came and ran a new, more direct line to our house. Still hasn’t solved the issue. What’s your experience been?
Can anyone recommend a place to get a full set of lashes done, preferably walk in friendly?
I have an event coming up and wanted to do a trial run of lashes. I've never had them before.
Extra appreciated would be stories that include price, how long your lashes lasted, and what type you got.
Thank you in advance.
Hello! Does anyone know of any intro car care/maintenance/mechanics courses in the area? I see Mohawk has one but it doesn't appear to be running at the moment.
Toronto seems to have some continuing ed classes through some of the technical high schools - is that something that exists here?
Thanks!
Hey all! I'm just looking for some clarification from people who have taken this course in the past.
Mohawk's website says that this course exempts you from having to take credits during your industrial (442A) or commercial (309A) apprenticeship.
From experience, does anybody know if this course exempts you from ALL credits, or just some?
After graduating this course, will I have to go back to school during the duration of my apprenticeship, whether it's 442A or 309A?
Thanks!
I was in the area today for art crawl but it seemed pretty desolate. Was it because of weather or was I too early? It was quite cold today. It was around 4:30 to 5:00 ish. I was here last month for it as well (not knowing it was a thing yet) and it seemed pretty lively. Musicians, stalls lining almost the whole street down.
Anyone know of cheapest car wash booths in the city?
But I have no friends 😢 what do I do? I don’t think I can just randomly join a bunch of people at their table or something
Hello,
For those that have had radon remediation done in Hamilton- which contractor did you use and were you happy with them? (There seems to be only a few in the area.)
Also, do they do a gas locate before drilling through the basement floor?
I've seen some people say they have work done in just a couple of days, which doesn't seem like enough time for a locate. At the very least, I would like to know if the system is sitting on top of a gas line.
Thanks very much.
Mohawk college is reported to be cutting 200-400 jobs.
SJH has recently cut some clinical support role jobs
Staff of SJH were informed today East Region mental health services is closing.
This is a great loss to the community, especially given we are in a mental health crisis.
There's never any station staff. Honestly, can not tell you the last time I have seen anything in the station staffed. Have a question? Concerns? There never seems to be staff. But I do see fare inspectors more often than staff. And there's always homeless people or people high or drunk. Stairwells haven't smelled like pee in a while which is nice or I've just become nose blind. The surrounding area including the station just feels so sketchy at night.
hi everyone, was wondering if anyone knows of a bar in the city that has miller high life on tap \
thanks :)
They've started rebuilding the house on Ferrie St. E that the city had to step in and fix earlier this year. Second floor walls are up. Wonder how round two will go.
Hey all!
Taking some friends here tomorrow and it’s everyone’s first time.
What’s the cover cost? Is it a cash only place or can you pay for drinks with card?
TIA!
Does anyone know why
Was going down this area and saw police cars blocking the road. Anyone know what happened here?
Hey yall, any recommendations for drag brunch locations? Looking for something hopefully low key, I found one in Stoney creek but kinda looking for something closer to Ancaster
Does anyone have any good dentist recommendations around the Gage park area. Need to get away from Century Stone.
Hi everyone. Does anyone know about any lots or other private surrounding areas that have monthly parking spots available? We're looking for a parking spot and having some trouble. I've already emailed Hamilton Parking (Municipal lots nearby don't have availability) and a private lot nearby has a waitlist.
TIA!
