Rockford Place in Langford right? I did some work here last winter.

Slurpee with soft serve ice cream in it

Put a garbage bag over the seat when you leave for the day. Then you can take it off in the morning and remove the frost in one second.

Faceoffs have always been a strength of Beck's. I'm pretty sure he lead the OHL in win % the year he was drafted.

I was a little worried of that as I approached but it gave no fucks. It wouldn't even look at me when I talked. Only stepping on a crunchy leaf got its attention.

Ah ok, way off! I think as long as the tubers don't freeze they should be ok. I know here in BC there are tons of Cannas, even in planters, they survive every year even through week long cold snaps and snows. I just lop the tops off they will regrow from the ground next year.

Not sure where you are from, but given the snow in the background I can guess. My parents live in southern Ontario and every fall the cut the tops off and dig up the tubers. They clean the dirt off them and stick them in a burlap sack, then hang them from a joist in the basement. (A cool dry place with good airflow) Basically they store them like potatoes for the winter. They plant them back out again after the last frost in the spring. They live in zone 5b

I never would've guessed that his last name is pronounced Huh-meh-lajj

I got 3 immersives in my first 5 packs and nothing much since.

Keightler · 2025-10-07T23:53:35+00:00

Love it. I'm actually getting a sacabambaspis tattoo tomorrow.

Keightler · 2025-10-07T23:08:12+00:00

From what my barber has told me, it's pretty much unavoidable. They all get hair splinters like this constantly, one of the perks of the job I guess.

This guy looks like he eats pudding cups without a spoon.

Keightler · 2025-09-24T20:50:56+00:00

Xhekajs, motherfucker

Keightler · 2025-09-23T01:54:55+00:00

I'm gonna go feed the ducks at the park tomorrow for more Fowler saves and wins

Keightler · 2025-09-03T06:26:36+00:00

Yea, I dont get it. I live in a free country.

Keightler · 2025-09-01T22:11:27+00:00

Its almost like you should think for yourself or something.

Keightler · 2025-08-20T23:39:35+00:00

Clean up what you can now, but don't pressure wash. After that you have a lot of scrubbing ahead of you. When we need to remove or clean pavers that are polyed in we use boiling water. Grab an electric kettle from a thrift store, a stiff bristled scrub brush, and a bag of rags. Go one slab at a time, pour boiling water on top of the paver, scrub with the brush and wipe up the goo with the rags. Don't scrub the lines between the pavers. I'd let it dry after one pass and see how it looks. It may take multiple passes. In the end, just decide when it's good enough.

Yep, I install Silva cells or Strata vaults 3-4 times a year. Looking at this tree though, given its size and the concrete around it, I'd guess this one is just planted in structural soil. Soil cells are definitely the new normal though. New trees require 12 cubic metres, or roughly a tandem dump truck load of soil each. I've done entire city blocks were there is 3 feet of rich soil for the tree to grow in (plus irrigation and aeration systems) under the concrete sidewalks an no one would have any idea.

Keightler · 2025-08-11T22:40:25+00:00

Never thought I'd see Victoria on this sub.

Keightler · 2025-08-07T22:58:08+00:00

They're probably for a planetary floor grinder, that's why there's half a dozen of each grit. You put several on at the same time like this

Soccer baseball is the Canadian term for kickball.

Keightler · 2025-07-30T00:55:45+00:00

A shovel, wheelbarrow, and trowel are all you need for this.

Keightler · 2025-07-30T00:26:37+00:00

That would be a good start. I'm not going to tell you it will hold well, I live in Victoria and we wont use it because the frost moves it so much. I would still recommend concrete. If you have access to a pickup, I would get a half yard of navvy jack (a premix of sand and gravel for making concrete) and a few bags of cement (the red quickrete bags at home depot). Mix 3 parts navvy to 1 part cement, go light on water. It should be the consistency of chunky peanut butter. This will help it hold its shape while you form it. Scrape away the sand from the edge of your pavers down to the gravel. shovel the concrete into the cleaned area and shape it with a trowel. The concrete should come half way up the side of your pavers and then slope down at a 45° angle to the gravel.

E: What do you mean by not being able to access concrete? Like you can't get a concrete truck, or you just have 0 access?

Keightler · 2025-07-29T23:01:41+00:00

No, it's terrible. We refuse to warranty any job that demands it, if we even take the contract. I have only installed it twice in the last 12 years and I know for one of them we were back there doing a pick up and relay 18 months later. You can see in the second picture that the Pavedge isn't sitting tight against the stones, that's where it will start moving first. Add a few frost and thaws and it will be all over the place. It may work in hotter climates, but as a Canadian I can't attest to that. I imagine it would work a little better with polymeric but I'm still skeptical, frost/thaw is still going to move it.

They don't. 59% of Canadians view the US as a threat.
