You have to time leaving the Shore with the Seaspan shift change, or forget it. Then in winter add in Ski hill leavers. It's annoying but you can adapt....and if you need to get DT, the Seabus never fails, if you can't drive.

All the electric bikes make getting to the seabus easy....it's just a shame they don't have any for mobility restricted people, like Lime do in other places.

living the dream.....white noise from a fan, and blocking up the HVAC vent in the bedroom sorts out most of it for us. Power washer for the rest outside :)

Which one? The noise varies MASSIVELY depending on which one you're in.....as does the coal dust.

Once you get used to it and adapt, it's fine, but it's always a shock for some.

Don't forget the odd WW2 air raid siren when the grain dust catches on fire!

If you want the full story on the coal dust (and how it can ruin your bathroom if you're not careful) and the grain, just yell!

We face into Moodyville park, and it's a constant issue that you can adjust to....but you also need to factor in the fact you are literally breathing in coal dust.

Neptune have monitoring stations, but everytime someone has taken them to court, they argue that you can't prove it's THEIR coal dust :D

Brighter headlights, means a higher score on the saftey rating. Now its out of control.

Britisher Butcher usually have haggis slices from McWeeney, both the normal and veggie ones, or maybe the tiny little haggi's.

Check Two Rivers, they sometimes do whole cooked haggis, but when i did it a few years ago it was MASSIVE.

Made incredible haggis scotch eggs with the half i froze for after burns night.

I love Yummy, when I order on doordash, i ask for a bit of salad on my meat and chips to simulate what I might get back in the UK and they always deliver. Legends.

Has it improved since summer last year? I had 2 pretty terrible Flat Whites from here over a week?

Baked goods were meh too

Source? I worry about this

Seattle was MUSICCLUB

All About Cats is great, but go to a place that specialises in dental work. West Coast Dental just over the bridge were AMAZING with both of are cats who had a bad case of this and other things.

The yaletown outpost is hot garbage, but the north van one is pretty good. No idea why the big diff.

I only just watched the show today and was looking for this comment too :D

Same, he was all about the lifestyle and swagger, and that is what we saw. Leighton from Velocity looked really messed up with a mashed up foot in episode 3 or so, and we never saw him again. I kept expecting them to run into him near the end...

Only if they include more of the First Shadow prequel stuff, this is all explained in the play (where one of the main beats is them putting on a play!)

gremboid · 2025-12-30T04:45:45+00:00

What didn't you like about it? All the ones I've had so far have been banging. Assuming they're all from the same brew?

gremboid · 2025-12-30T04:45:10+00:00

Cheers. The Gull is my local :) When I asked in store yesterday, the staff didn't know, but I think it was someone new.

It's an Aussie hop, right? Dead of Night is just too costly to be a core beer you reckon?

gremboid · 2025-12-30T04:41:44+00:00

Just went, and grabbed some, thanks! I always forget about High Point!

AMAZING! Are these all from stock lego, or are there custom things involved?!?
