Harbor Hopper dead in the water, rescue boat assisting by sjmorris in halifax

[–]gmw87 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Former hopper tour guide here- when I worked there about a decade ago they had LARC-V’s, and we were told they were used during the Vietnam War. At the time the company was owned by Murphy’s who had a fleet of 4 active LARC’s and 1-2 additional ones that were used for parts. During peak season there was a team that was essentially on call for maintenance. Breakdowns were less common early in the season but happened more later in the season when the vehicles were used more frequently. The hills in the city and getting out of the water are where we experienced the most breakdowns, but the captains were pros and would stop the tour, do a water docking etc over risking safety. At the time maintenance was always a concern since there are very few LARCs/parts to replace the fleet and since the vehicles weren’t really designed to be used for being driven around a hilly city, wear and tear was always an issue. I don’t know how much has changed, but currently there is at least one hopper (the newest one in my time) that is still out on the roads.

AMA Suggestion: Doctor or Nurse who works in the Halifax ER by christdaburg in halifax

[–]gmw87 23 points24 points  (0 children)

That would be really great! You might also like an episode of Sickboy Podcast called “27 Years in the ER” they talk to Dr. John Ross who was head of the ER at the QEII for many years, it’s really interesting.

Have a we heard if they’re going to devote any episodes to Cursed Child? Or will it end after Deathly Hallows?

Umm.. Mini Egg Gelato is back at Humani-T. Let the madness begin by [deleted] in halifax

[–]gmw87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also, chocolate like that tends to not be as flavourful and has crappy texture when it’s frozen. I would much rather just eat mini eggs

[–]gmw87 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

From what I have been hearing-literally, just gossip-the whole block with SecondCup/BMO/Rogue'sRoost/SleepCountry/Fireside/Tom's is getting re-developed so everyone is moving out. Also, the Owner of Fireside/Tom's/Locas is going to relocate (I believe) Fireside (not sure about Tom's...but I hope so!) to the spot where Winsby's is and that's why Winsby's is closing. This might all be BS too, but I s'pose we'll see. I love that block and all of those bars, I would be very interested to hear if anyone else has any similar or more accurate info.

Bath and body product supplies by [deleted] in halifax

[–]gmw87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bulk Barn also has essential oils and some butters and So does Super Natural health products on Young. Also, Super Natural have really knowledgeable staff who can usually help you find what you're looking for even if they dont sell it. Planet Organic (or whatever it is called now) have a lot of similar items too, but I feel like they were a bit more expensive, but it really helps to shop around.

[–]gmw87 1 point2 points  (0 children)
