Specialty coffee.

Looking for single origin specialty coffee with fresh roast dates.

Who in town is selling bags?

I already buy from Rapids End and Kit. I'm looking for other options I may not already know of.

Cheers.

Settle a bet: Does anyone remember a restaurant in Peterborough square BEFORE the food court in Peterborough square?

My friend INSISTS there was a restaurant at the top of the escalator when he was a kid (early nineties era) that was big and possibly nautical themed. Anyone???

Home Network Set-up

Does anyone know of a residential tech support company to assist with setting up a home network. We are looking to maximize our wifi throughout the house and would like to speak with someone about types of routers, extenders, etc. to get a decent signal throughout the house.

I think my dog got a tick walking along Murray St / Hopkins Ave, but it might have been from the Trent trail over the weekend (specifically the Morton Family Trail). Beware!!!

Book clubs

Hello!

I am a female in her twenties who loooooves reading all types of books, but often have no one to discuss them with. I am not originally from Peterborough, and I was curious if anyone knew of any book clubs in the area who are accepting new members 😊 ?

Thanks in advance!

Peterborough transit suck bad!

What's going on with the peterborough transit system? Noting sucks as much as busses in this city. Is this thing paid for by our taxes? What a disaster!

I'm waiting nearly an hour for route 5 bus at 7pm on Charlotte and park, people were waiting here and they left with big disappointment after nothing showed up for so long. Can't be more frustrated.

There's not even an app that correctly show bus ETA. Nothing works here, neither Google map nor transit app.

Is there anyone in this city who cares at all in this city?

Wait Times for Leons Delivery

We bought some furniture at Leon's a month ago, and were given a 2-3 week delivery time. Each week we call and are informed that the delivery date has been pushed back. Now we're expecting delivery into next month, with no guarantees.

Feels an awful lot like we gave Leon's a no-interest loan. We feel stuck. Is anyone in a similar boat, or have advice on what to do?

Hell is still very hot

Follow up to my post the other day, they are not paving Towerhill, or putting in sidewalks by the looks of it. Machines are gone and a radditor shared info with me that shows construction ends just past VW. I'm disappointed but can't say I'm surprised. Great job at half assing it again, Ptbo!

Crew laying fibre along hwy 28?

I've seen a crew with ditch witches and huge coils of orange cable working their way south down hwy 28. Anyone know what's up? I'm wondering if it's Bell activity or some other comms company.

Peterborough Waste app

I just got an iPad and downloaded all my apps from the Cloud. I noticed the Peterborough City Waste app was not there. No bid deal, I’ll just download it but when I went to the App Store it is no longer available! What?

Does anybody know the story or is a new one coming? The app on my phone still works.
