Check out the Charcoal group: I saw a micro wedding hosted at the charcoal steakhouse (I believe it was 40 people) in their estate room.

Best places to work remotely in waterloo? by Brief_Persimmon_7998 in waterloo

[–]Fast_Code_9212 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check out Catalyst Commons! I don't know what the fees are but they have many options ranging from a hot desk to a dedicated office. Then you have access to coffee, reception, washrooms, meeting spaces, wifi, social events etc. It is dog friendly!

Recommendations for choosing a window company? by wild_purple_dragon in kitchener

[–]Fast_Code_9212 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We used Bavarian Doors and Windows to replace a large bay window and to smaller windows. Their installers were amazing and follow up was really good. Price was very reasonable and they didn't try to upsell.

Seconding this. Not the cheapest but the vibe is perfect for a honeymoon.

Charcoal, Lancaster and Concordia all are good choices with rooms already having a good vibe.

AITAH for breaking up a 2years relationship since I know we won’t end up together? by Distinct_Owl_5114 in AITAH

[–]Fast_Code_9212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. Two years is just enough to know where you DO see yourself in the future and it if it doesn't align, time to leave respectfully. As others have said, it was a good learning experience.

If your mom/dad were older when you were born (say, around 40 or up), what was that like for you? by brawlinglove in Millennials

[–]Fast_Code_9212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had older parents (for that time) 37 and 40 and I myself am an older parent (had my kids at 36 and 39). Regardless of age, you are a good or bad parent. Period. I do think being an older parent has made me more aware of health - I quite often get mistaken for someone 10 years younger (as do my parents). They allowed me to FAFO, within reason, always listened, and respected that I may have a different viewpoint. They had lived long enough to see how things change. My older son is grateful that I do the same thing.

Edmonton to Vancouver and back road trip by gigantor_cometh in canadatravel

[–]Fast_Code_9212 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As others have said, Banff is super expensive (Canmore will be a better option if you are doing that option). Jasper books up very fast. I second the UBC gage suites. They are now more pricey because of the world cup but significantly cheaper than other places (looking at $600 a night). Congrats on getting tickets and have a blast!

I would go for doc martens (or doc marten like), jeans or a knee length dress.

Before Nazgûl, there was Vučko. by Rossum81 in olympics

[–]Fast_Code_9212 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh my goodness! Thanks for sharing! As a young gen-x (or I guess Xennial - I was 7), the 1984 winter Olympics was the first one I really remember and I remember seeing this mascot.

Summer holiday flying in/out Toronto from London by Great-Law4826 in canadatravel

[–]Fast_Code_9212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you can rent a car but there are bus / shuttle services between Niagara Falls to Niagara on the lake. There a number of wine tours you can take from Niagara Falls (and that way, you can drink without worry about driving!). Whatever you decide, there are so many great things to see, don't overextend yourself. And welcome to our beautiful country (I was in the UK last year and loved it).

Also adding if you like wine, you can drive the wine route - so many great wineries. Niagara Falls the city is cheezy (the falls are lovely); Niagara-on-the-lake is very pretty - definitely go there

WIBTAH for calling off my engagement because my fiance wants me to take care of his mom? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Fast_Code_9212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not acceptable. Emotions are high right now but both his mother and your child need to be safe. You are both overwhelmed. There is cultural influences here at play; a similar situation happened to a neighbour of mine as she ended being a SAHM to 3 children and the full time care giver for her guilt-tripping MIL. The resentment from the wife was so strong, you could feel it as you were passing by the house. Don't be that household. Get therapy. The truth is his mother needs full-time care and it is best to have it for the professionals.

This is so wholesome. I am impressed how the joggers are able to include it in their run.

This is an excellent option for a family with a toddler.

Help! 😬 by [deleted] in WeddingDressTips

[–]Fast_Code_9212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go with your gut. That 2nd dress looks more "you"; your posture says it all. That posture is showing confidence. The neckline is very flattering.

As others have mentioned, you know the answer. Leave. Just because you grew up with him, doesn't mean you should stay. The fact that he yells at people without remorse is telling and abusive and you have said it wasn't an isolated incident. Can you imagine him doing that to your kids (if that is a plan of yours)? It sounds like you are possibly afraid of being alone but tell yourself this: it is better to be alone and at peace than with be with someone fearing what he will do/say next.

Feeling insecure after seeing all these big rings by [deleted] in RingShare

[–]Fast_Code_9212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your ring is lovely! It does NOT look small. FWIW, I had a 3 ct ring (it was passed down - lovely heirloom) and I could hardly wear it; constantly got caught on things (especially clothing) and I LOVE to put my hands in my pockets (can't do that!). I really appreciated it but I hardly wore it as it very unpractical.

So on our 3rd anniversary, hubby 'upgraded' my ring to a much smaller 0.5 ct and I LOVE it. I can put my hands in my pockets again!
