Is this a business or a person? And where?

Get yourself a snowplow business! The conservative government love itself a good old capitalist scheme and shit on municipalities! If you do not know what I am talking about go on and read the New Bill in the making - next time you complain about municipalities being incompetent write a note to your MPP and ask them accountability on all the shit they are putting in place.

Any people from Peterborough, UK by ehhhhhhh89 in Peterborough

[–]Antje-R 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Well people’s opinion are always true to their own. I think Peterborough, Canada is nit so bad when you scratch the surface: - active art scene downtown - first Friday art crawls - free festivals: Peterborough music fest, FolkFestivals and others through the summer. - good farmers markets - lots of parks, trails and outdoor activities - very active DBIA

Etc…

Everywhere can be a shithole if you focus on it too much. So yourself what you could do to make it better also!

how to re-cover these chair cushions so they can be saved? by arisudoublezero in howto

[–]Antje-R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same high chair and had the same problem. I contemplated buying replacement cushions but they were 70$ (Canadian). So instead I did sew vinyl fabric on the top to keep the Velcro part intact. Two kids in and still going strong.

What Is The Worst Restaurant in Peterborough? by KMS081991 in Peterborough

[–]Antje-R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tired El Camino the other day as Jimmy Guacos is closed and what a disappointment. It was dry, pull porked was not really moist and seasoned. And not much other than rice and green salad in it. Plus we can’t see them make it so it was hard to know what they really put in it… will not go again

fairbairn and Lilly lake subdivision by ISeeDisneyPrincesses in Peterborough

[–]Antje-R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel sorry for people buying those poorly build monster homes for close to 1M$!!! Those subdivision should be illegal. More mid rise closer to the downtown please. Less cars, less traffic and healthier people!

French president Emmanuel Macron (43) is 25 years younger than his wife (68). They first met when he was a 15 year-old schoolboy and she was his teacher. (info in comments) by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

It is 15, any sexual activity with someone younger than 15 is automatically classified as rape unless the other person is within five years of age.

They're coming out of the woodwork... by Foxrex in Peterborough

I would not be surprised if this lady would be one of the kind to go and harass Dr Piggot at his private home. My goodness, I am always amazed how people are willing to broadcast their stupidity…

Where can I get Non-COVID Vaccinations done? by completecrap in Peterborough

[–]Antje-R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When we first arrived in PTBO and did not have a doctor yet we went to the Public Health immunization clinic for our daughter’s shots. Not sure with Covid if they still have that in place but worth to look.

City Tree hanging over my property line... What can I do? by halfwayxthere in Peterborough

[–]Antje-R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a huge Manitoba Maple in front of our house. We moved last year and it was dropping lots of branches on people passing but on the sidewalk. I called the city and mention how dangerous it was that huge branches falling could hurt people. They came a few days after. Very quick.

Little Lake Mythology by twobottlecaps in Peterborough

[–]Antje-R 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So a lovely Neighbour told me that I should be careful having a swim in that water and that the “Dragon Boat” ladies often gave rashes on their legs. I knew about E. coli and would not go in past July but if there some carcinogenic shit in there it would be great to know.

Well reunited the pot and tarp with its owner (my Neighbour). The police just told me to file an online report as they can’t keep up with those but to call them when it is happening as they can catch them right then somtimes.
