Good liquor store for unique tequila?

Can anyone recommend a private of public liquor store with a better than average selection of tequila?

I have an acquaintance who enjoys character tequilas and I'd like to gift them an unusual bottle. North Van, West Van, Burnaby? Where to go? Thanks!

Christmas Baking - Gingerbread

Hi all... I hope this is appropriate...

Does anyone know of anywhere (bakery, grocery store, I'm not fussed) that is selling "naked" gingerbread men? Undecorated?

TIA!

Black Kettle Bad brewing

Wow Black kettle turning into a nightmare I hear. Bad beer, bad service and owner-managment at a all time low. Definitely better breweries out there to hit up.

Using Uber on Saturday for non-Swift things

I’ve planned to have guests over at my place near the Second Narrows bridge Sat 7 evening . I want guests to ride safe, now I’m worried all the Ubers will be focused on Swift concert, be in low availability and charging ludicrous fees.

Interested in hearing others thoughts.

With all the fog today… this is what keeps going round in my head

Please tell me someone else remembers the fog that turns people inside out from the Simpsons…

Young families, how do you like living in North Vancouver aside from CoL concerns?

How do you like living in North Vancouver? How does it compare to other parts of the province you may have lived in?

residential cleaning - is there demand?

After years of 9-5 in corporate I am getting to the point where i wake up each morning wondering why I am working for someone else.

I would love to go back to school and retrain but finances do not allow. One thing I get a lot of joy from is cleaning and house organization, Ive been moving our household to a minimalistic decluttered home for about 3 years now.

anyone know what the demand is like for residential house cleaning on the North Shore? I see posts about people trying to find cleaners but I know this is an industry that likes under the table workforce.

Is it possible to start this up and be successful??

Scam artist standing outside save on food park and tilford

A women with a sign claiming to have 2 children and no money to raise them was asking for money standing outside save on foods. Now at first I know it may seem real and legit. But this is a super common scam in Europe. These children do not exist. When I came back from Europe it was something I was super happy we didn't have here. But it seems that our time has come. Please do not give her or another scammer your money.

Fireplace surround/ mantle reno

We have a gas fireplace that we’d like to keep and just redo the surround/ mantle. Have checked out a couple more pricey fireplace stores but just looking to do a basic design (it’s currently dated clunky tile).

Any suggestions for who to reach out about this? A carpenter? A speciality store?

Venue rental suggestions: Group movement therapy workshops on the North Shore

I’m looking for a private venue to host group movement therapy workshops, primarily on weekends starting in June 2025. Ideally, the space would be close to the forest or the water.

Any suggestions for venues would be greatly appreciated!

How many runs open at Grouse?

Not sure if the listing of open runs on the Grouse Website is for this evening or daytime. Website says only 4 runs open. Is that what we should expect if we went up tomorrow? Did anyone go up today?

Christmas at Lynn Valley

I’m sorry if this has been asked before; I did a search and scrolled for a while but didn’t see anything. We all know Capilano has gotten horrendously expensive (have family visiting and wanted to go, but $72/adult now?!). Does Lynn Valley Suspension Bridge also light up at Christmas? I saw TripAdvisor reviews for many years ago that they had lights, but wanted confirmation of more recent 😊 Thank you!

Searching for Dashcam Footage

October 31,2024 5:40pm Willingdon and Canada Way in front of the Shell gas station

A fender bender between a BMW and Mitsubishi SUV while both were changing into the same lane. Unfortunately, the gas stations did not have any footage.

Thank you!

Snow Fall Enough?

Good evening, everyone!

I am eager to get into snowboarding this season but am unfamiliar with when the best time is to go? I see that tickets are available for Grouse/Cypress but would it be worth it to go up either of those, this weekend ?

Thank you so much for your help!
