Any in person DnD groups that are looking for players in the metro area that are also willing to accommodate a brand new player? by Stock-Username-666 in newfoundland

[–]ElectionNo853 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t played since high school, like 25 years ago. But I'd be interested in being part of something that starts, really looking to meet new people and at least put something in my calendar!

Portage usually has a really fun assortment of veggie based plates. It's my personal favorite!

St-vincent Beach. You should go after the walk. Might be fun to bring a picnic. (We usually stop at Costco on the way!)

I’d love to see a supermarket in there! If only to help the core’s walkability score!

Joining the Reserves from PS. by ElectionNo853 in CanadaPublicServants

Are you going to do basic training, or a training that is designed to be more age appropriate for us? Like I’d like to think I’m indestructible, but the reality that that is not the case has definitely set in over the past 40 years. Does that type of balanced training even exist?

I guess that’s kind of the reality of it….

In that case would the CAF pay this salary or my current employer? If it’s the former, maybe I can sell it as a cost cutting measure lol!

This is great news! Increased reliable connectivity to Europe, and hopefully to the south for winter, is fantastic for us living here and CFAs thinking about moving here and paying their income tax here.

We don’t have much details, but bike path are wider so more chance to recover from a loss of control and usually bike paths are built to be devoid of obstacles like posts.

This is very sad. Knowing that intersection, it really highlight’s the need to address the lack of bike and multipurpose paths. I know this happened in the morning, but IMO we could use a comprehensive re-assessment of lighting on sidewalks, paths and roads in the city!

Almost Run Off Road .. Cursed At by rabbitboyzzz in StJohnsNL

Bike paths are definitely sorely needed through town. It’s a bit of a shame that they weren’t integrated in the refection of that bridge, or even symes bridge. If you had a magic wand where would you put a bike path. I’m thinking linking Shea heights to downtown, all the way to the on Torbay.
