There was an insane amount of emergency vehicles heading over the bridge to the marina today. Does anyone know what happened ?
Hey everyone. I figured there would be a few people who would know the answer in this subreddit.
If a camp’s water lines were winterized last fall correctly (ie: drained, air blown through the system, and antifreeze added), would they be fine through another winter if the water wasn’t turned on this summer?
Or should more antifreeze be added? Can that be done by pouring some into the drains?
Thanks for any insight!
Strapped for cash and I gotta get my car on the road asap, does anyone know a decent mechanic that won't nag about stupid things to pass a safety? Tried with canadian tire but they're saying that apparently my headlight covers won't pass, despite them being hardly scuffed at all
If you are going to bingo or hockey in the reserve, Back St and Mission Rd are closed for the evening to make trick or treating safer for the kiddos. The alternative route is turn right at THP onto Little Lake Rd then another right onto Anemki. Please don’t be an asshole. Happy Halloween !
Where can I get a good cup of joe? Nothing but watered down shite at tim hortons nowadays. Is robins any good? Thanks in advance 🙂🙂🙂
Heyy guys and girls Im looking into getting a pedi and shellac this weekend in Tbay.
Any good places with affordable prices? I dont want to spend $60+
Do you guys know any salons or home businesses?
Thanks!!!
Looking for a dentist in Thunder Bay. Don't care where, as long as they're good and easy to work with. I've done some web searching, but really inconsistent results, and more sponsored ad then I'd like. (I'm talking to you Oasis)
Who's still up this time 👀
Does anyone know the type of icing GOTT cupcakes use? Would like to try and make it at home. Thanks
Does anyone have any nail techs they can recommend that don't drill shellac off? I'm tired off nail techs ruining my thick nails with their drills and wasting my money.
where are some places around town to volunteer? im a hard worker with lots of spare time and a desire to make up for past wrongs. i've thought about the humane society as i love animals, i've also thought about hospice centers as i find it much easier to relate to older generations then people of my own but i also want to meet people of my own generation to try and fortify the lack of social skill there. i would realy love to join a wilderness search and rescue group as that line of work is almost perfectly inline with my hobbies and interests, but thats a huge commitment and i dont want to let anyone down by backing out half way through.
where are some other places that need help?
Does anyone have any feedback on the PR Cook apartments at St Joseph's Heritage? I have a family member who is considering a move into an apartment, but you can't get a showing or tour of an apartment there until an apartment becomes available.
Sometime in the past couple minutes we reached 20K users. With 115k people in town according to the Statscan estimate, that would be 17% of the population. Two years after we reached 10k, so we're on a roll; if we continue doubling every two years we'll have 100% by 2030. Thanks to the Russian bots for making this possible!
It's been months now, does anyone know when this is supposed to be finished? It's such a pain in the ass down in that area right now with all the detours.
Any local ufo sightings anyone wants to share?
They're there almost every time I go to Freshco. It's so awkward
Hey, a couple weeks ago I was trying to find a local pizzeria's menu online and was really annoyed to discover the closest they had was a way outdated one trapped behind a Facebook page (I don't have a FB account of my own, so that's a hassle). I called out for "justthemenu.ca" to exist, but it didn't. Instead of cursing the darkness, I lit a candle instead and created a super basic site for Thunder Bay eateries where I've been trying to download or scan or photograph the latest menus of places I like or am interested in. I've run out of menus that I could easily pick up or find online, so now I'm wondering if anyone else would be willing to email some to me to include on the website? I admit it's basic - so be gentle with your critiques. Thanks in advance for checking it out and maybe contributing! Cheers.
Oh, almost forgot, the site really IS justthemenu.ca - let's see how good I am at formatting!
Interested in what the general opinion is around having a shag?
Couples who have done it, was it worth the effort?
Potential attendees, what do you look for that makes a great shag?
Heads up to everyone riding their bikes in the mornings... it's a lot darker now in the mornings than it was a month ago... please put a light on your bike, front and back. Through personal experience this morning... it's very difficult to see you riding across Memorial Avenue at 8am with no light and dressed completely in black.
I got some stickers at Thundercon from modoodles, and now I need more! I want to stickerbomb my PC case, but I want to do it with local/NWO art. Anyone here sell their art as stickers?
