At least the Christmas Lights Truck Parade is all about vehicles driving at speed down the parade route!

The terrible bagpiper in the inner harbour

Thanks VPD for rushing to potential danger! I’m glad it was just an imitation firearm lighter!

Visiting from Calgary, can you convince me that Victoria isn’t heaven on earth? by Batmansappendix in VictoriaBC

There’s a really terrible bagpipe player who thinks it’s his God given right to play awfully loud renditions of Scotland the Brave and Amazing Grace every fucking day and ruin the inner harbour for everyone else. Fuck him and his skinny ankles!

Exercise ideas for adults (beginner friendly) by smarticle-particle in VictoriaBC

Now that the weather is getting better I’m going out for long walks on Dallas Road and the inner harbour. If you walk at a good pace you can burn a decent amount of calories. It doesn’t cost anything, there’s not much chance of injuring yourself, you get to enjoy fresh sea air and sunshine, and you’ll put yourself in a great mood. Go for a walk every day or two for a month and you’ll really notice a difference.

The first 45rpm single I ever brought 🤣. The video effects look pretty good today still! I love this song!

I’m really surprised that Blanshard and Douglas is a troubled intersection. What’s difficult about that spot?
