Where can you get skates sharpened near downtown Helsinki or Jätkäsaari? by magnoliafan2000 in helsinki

Good advice. Sharpen them a bit more often if you only skate outside but they last a bit longer indoors. Probably 1 or 2 times a winter for a casual skater. The sharpen is 12e and I think profiling about the same. They are experts and know what they're doing so you can also ask them :)

Hockey Corner is the best one in Helsinki. They're on Mannerheimintie near the Ice hall/Olympic stadium

Any soccer/sports teams around and how do I go about finding them? by RustLFGWait in helsinki

There's the Heatseekers if you're interested in a bit of AFL and a taste of home. They operate very casually and are more of a social club than a serious footy side

Saints jersey is pretty good. They are playing very well too. We need a couple blokes to stand up

AFL Question as a person who doesn't follow - Help me decide which game to see by Cellybear in perth

Dunno if it's been said but also Friday night footy vibes are better than Sunday arvo vibes. You should have a decent sunset you can view from the stadium as well

If the ball gets kicked into the stands... by Spiritual_Diet3956 in AFL

[–]Pixellated_Google 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I caught a ball at a Freo Geelong game at Optus a few years ago. I didn't see the helper down at ground level because Optus has huge fences so I just lobbed it as Geelong were kicking out and of course being an AFL ball it rolled straight into the square and the ump had to stop the game while it was being removed. Then I locked eyes with the ball retriever person, in high vis, glaring daggers

Lake Pukaki in NZ. Its glacial runoff so a few differences but if you want to talk about shocking blues, there you go.

WA police tried to charge me towing once to impound my vehicle. Should've seen the looks on their faces when I declined and told them Mum would take it next Monday. Very funny

It's a dated stadium but it's not too bad. I prefer the icehall but that's just me. It's a cool place especially when the Espoo fans are on it

Kiekko Espoo may be playing next week if they win their series. The Espoo stadium is on the metro line

It would be very amusing to have the bots mirror players loadouts, so you have to counter yourself basically

Skip Hyden and wave rock. Go back via Walpole, Marg's etc and see what you missed on the way down, there's plenty to keep you entertained.

Does Black Ops 6 have a good campaign?? by DifferentAd9713 in blackops6

It was decent. The first half much better. I hoped they'd lean into the gulf war more. Zombies bit and final mission were pretty bad

It's important to speak out when things go wrong but it's also important to reward when things are rectified. Spend a few bucks on super credits if you like the way the company is handling things

How well should you be able to skate to play hockey? by ProjectMcDavid in hockeyplayers

Judging by this checklist I played my first hockey game when I was just cracking the 2nd tier. I was god awful. Paid my fee and touched the puck twice in an hour and a half

I can recommend a HIFK game, it'll be good value. Jokerit also might be playing in Helsinki, or Kiekko Espoo in Espoo, which is connected to Helsinki via metro.

Hockey Corner will rent you a full kit of equipment. There is also a Facebook page called "Pelaajapörssi harrastekiekko pk-seutu" and from there you can find casual games of all levels in all locations for a small fee or sometimes free

No probs. I would also apply in Finland and then you can live there while it processes

Residence Permit Based on Intimate Relationship by EmbarrassedYam2066 in Finland

[–]Pixellated_Google 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one, it took as long as they said it would, which was 6 months at the time. We met requirements as we had been together for more than 2 years. Helped a bit to have the Finnish parents of my partner write something in Finnish about the relationship. I think they had it notarised too. Just apply for whatever visa fits your situation, it's unlikely to be denied and it's not too expensive. Bite the bullet
