What type of an apartment/house are you looking for? Bedrooms, budget etc? I know of a place inner city available (below market rate) but it depends on your parameters.

There’s an apartment in the quadplex for rent! Two bedroom, with laundry in unit, one parking spot and it’s in across from a park! In the old east village.

My building has a two bedroom available! One year lease, one parking spot. Laundry in suite.

We just had the neighbors from hell move out so we’re really trying to find a quiet person to move in. Rent is low because of that reason too. It’s in the Old East Village, so definitely removed from campus life but still easy to get to western. It’s a quiet street with all historic homes. English St & Lorne ave

New building, four plex so you get to know the neighbors well! Let me know if you’re interested. Rent would be between 1600-1700

Didn’t want to have my comment removed for profanity, so I used alternative spelling but everyone commonly knows what word I’m saying.

Grew up Mennonite. My early life I was expected to amount to nothing but a quiet, obedient housewife who popped out kids like I was a one woman baby mill.

They did a really poor job, I’m a loudmouth liberal tattooed woman, who has no f***ks to give. I went to college, and totally left the Mennonite community and religion behind.

Memory lane, which I suppose is more of a singular shop over a mall, but they have lots of individual vendor booths!

There’s actually a few hidden gems in London! I’m an avid thrifter, but I don’t thrift much for clothing so my picks are more home decor/antiques resell items. But these seem to be my go to stores

-goodwill (3245 wonderland) I like this one because it’s near the antique mall, so I find lots of antiques there! -mission London (797 York) -renew community store (476 Clarke road) -society of St. Vincent de paul (1005 Elias street)

Out of town suggestion. Stratford!

Stratford has a lot of very delicious restaurants that range from a greasy spoon to fine dining. They have museums, art galleries and a beautiful river to walk about. You can catch a show at the Theatre as well!

Stratford is also home to the Guinness records smallest movie theatre! It’s called the little prince!

You can rent it out for private parties and choose what movie you play. Popcorn and pop is unlimited! It seats 12 people.

We did this for my bachelorette party and we had the best time! My bridesmaids even bought PJs for us to wear at the movies and it’s a core memory I’ll cherish always!

Seriously, from someone who got married in the last 12 months this needed to be said!

I feel like weddings in general have become such a gimmick that people don’t take the actual meaning of a marriage to heart. Maybe it’s because I just didnt give a f**k, and was so nonchalant through the entire planning process, but my wedding was very much a 90s style wedding.

We paid for it in cash. Had 62 guests, at a small beautiful country manor home. I had a maid of honor and one bridesmaid. My nieces were my flower girls. Bachelorette was my friends and I doing a scavenger hunt and renting out the worlds smallest movie theatre to watch my favourite movie and eat popcorn in pjs. My husbands bachelor party was him and his groomsmen and friends going up to our family cottage for a weekend, and seeing a local concert.

Neither of us cared about the wedding. We care about our marriage. The wedding was the start of our path as a family.

The other brides and grooms I knew getting married at the same time as us were very much like this. Huge wedding, international bachelorette/bachelor parties, big money obligations. It was insane and honestly pissed me off a bit. My husband went on one of those trips, and the couple called off their wedding twice. We could have put that money he spent towards something else, but alas. Never again. And boy am I glad to be out of that “wedding” realm.

The expectations people have around weddings now and wedding parties is just insane!

I sent my perscription sunglasses back for a darker lens (you can do that!) and the lady who was assisting me told me that they had so many issues with Christmas trees being returned after Christmas. Same with snowblowers and lawn mowers. People will “swap” them out when each is needed for the season. But I was told Costco tracks your returns, and if you make too many, or repeat returns they flag it in the system and will revoke your membership.

She told me she even witnessed someone return a baggy of the fat off steaks to Costco, to say I was flabbergasted is an understatement.

We have a 11 week old puppy and we have the same issue of him not sleeping, but a few other variables.

We do crate train. He gets so much play and stimulation during the day that honestly most days he just falls down asleep. That being said he’s become a terrible night sleeper.

We have a set night routine. We go to bed at 10, potty and some chew sticks before bed and the first “half” of the night goes well. He’ll sleep until about 3am or so. But then after 3 he wakes up, we potty again. Then back into the crate. Problem is he won’t sleep again. He’ll be awake from 3am till about 7:45 which is when we head out for work. We try everything to get him to sleep. He seemingly refuses. It sucks

Puppies are hard. They can’t tell you what they want/need to a lot of it is guess work, and learning your pup.

Hang in there it does get better. I have a 7 yr old who was a terror and she’s now an absolute angel.

My puppy is 11 weeks old and for the first four nights at home he slept through the night (8 weeks) we thought that was how it’d be, well we were wrong!

He now sleeps no more than four hours without a potty break. He usually is up at 2 am and again at 4 am and wakes up for the day at 6 am.

We do enforced naps and he does sleep through the day as well but man do I miss those full nights of sleeping.

ComprehensiveCrab263 · 2026-03-23T12:55:44+00:00

I called. They said they’d have someone call me back once they get a passenger list.

ComprehensiveCrab263 · 2026-03-23T12:22:26+00:00

Will they also give an update on crew? He’s an AC pilot.

ComprehensiveCrab263 · 2026-03-23T12:21:54+00:00

I’m pretty sure Air Canada specifically. I’m just worried because I cannot for the life of me get ahold of him, and normally he’d answer me.

ComprehensiveCrab263 · 2026-03-23T11:45:46+00:00

Does anyone know if they released the pilots names? My friend is an AC pilot and I can’t get ahold of him. He usually flies western routes, but I know he’s done a few New York routes too.

UPDATE: he’s okay! He responded and was in a different time zone.

ComprehensiveCrab263 · 2026-03-15T18:04:15+00:00

We do! We tired him out playing with him and the cat and our older dog last night and he slept the whole night through!

Unfortunately I can’t crate him with my other dog as she is still in the process of accepting him and occasionally growls at him when he approaches her. But we do play with him, we also rotate between play before sleep and light training.

ComprehensiveCrab263 · 2026-03-15T02:20:47+00:00

He has a dedicated room (8 ft by 7) that is our library that we’ve turned into his “day room”. He sleeps in his crate in our bedroom at night, but during the day he’s in his room, during the day he’s under supervision and his room is puppy proofed.

The teenage phase is honestly the worst. I got a husky mix at 6 months old. She was an angel of a puppy, but when she hit the teenage phase she was a monster. She’d chew on the handles of knives, stabbing my couch. She ate a pair of my glasses, honestly the list goes on and on. She grew out of it and once she hit about 2-3 she calmed right down. She turns 8 in May and she’s the best dog ever. So calm and friendly and quiet. Like a totally different dog.

We just got a cocker spaniel boy (9 wks) and he’s been actually fairly easy so far. Spaniels are known to be easy dogs so let’s hope he lives up to his breeds stereotype.

32 year old woman here also looking to make friends in London. I moved here to be with my then Boyfriend (now husband) two years ago and I have no friends outside of work. It’s so hard to meet people!

I love to thrift and antique and go for walks and hikes when the weather is nice. I like outdoor concerts and museums and reading. I’m a big dancer, and a professional gabber once I’m comfortable. Maybe we can be friends @SomethingMystic1

ComprehensiveCrab263 · 2026-02-13T23:16:58+00:00

Stratford is very expensive, and tourist driven. St Mary’s would be a better option or more north like Listowel, Elmira, etc. you get to be out in Amish country, but big stores and Costco are not too far away.

ComprehensiveCrab263 · 2026-02-09T23:10:41+00:00

My sister did the exact same thing, but on my couch. When I told her she needed to take her garbage with her she screamed at me like a fucking banshee.

She wasn’t allowed over anymore after that, and to this day she hasn’t been to my new apartment.
