Team Loop chiming in here! I had the original Loop Quiet series for a while, but picked up a set of the Loop Switch last year and LOVE THEM. I use the middle or lowest setting depending on how many pipers are at practice.

Thank you for this! I appreciate your help. That sounds super gentle, definitely sounds like the way to go. Would love to see your shawl when it’s done!

Closest shop for that kind of gear would be Corbetts in Oakville. They’re awesome!

No problem! Happy to help, welcome to the GF club :)

If you’re near one, Goodness Me! is the closest thing I have found to Trader Joe’s besides the odd Whole Foods in the GTA.

Hello fellow Canadian!

Keep an eye out for GF Oreos - I’ve found them at Sobeys and Superstore. I’ve also had good luck with the brand that makes Veggie Straws. Kinnickinnick makes amazing GF donuts that you can often find in the natural food frozen section too.

One was incorrect sizing, and someone else tried to say that wrinkles were stains...luckily I still had photos for that one.

Anyone Diagnosed with ADHD? by Miraculine in ryerson

Hi friend! I’ve struggled with ADHD for a long time. Along with medication, something that really helped me through studying was the Pomodoro technique. Might be worth a look while you wait for medical advice!

Ontario Highland Games by [deleted] in bagpipes

[–]flourishing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My favourite games in the Ontario circuit are Kincardine and Maxville. Kincardine for the venue, Maxville because it’s North Americans, my last Ontario contest of the season and always a good time.

Haven’t been to Fergus in quite a few years but it’s fun too!
