I’m a 30+ woman and I have no idea where to get nice clothes. Where do people go?

The places I used to go to in my 20s is all garbage that falls apart immediately now! I could shop online but I’ve been burned before getting stuff that’s expensive, doesn’t fit and overall sucks. What’s a girl to do?

Anyone who is EMS that can explain what this actually means?

I just saw the banners this morning about Commissioners Rd., East shutting down from 27 of July… does anyone know if this is in addition to all the closures or if something else is opening up to balance this out?
It’s sad that we have to ask this question and that tells a lot about our confidence in the intelligence of the great immaculate planners of our city.

Looking for women's soccer leagues for the fall. I know of BMO. FCSCC does not offer women's only. Are there other organizations that you can sign up as an individual? Not having much luck with Google

Hi!

Where is the best place to look for short term or month to month rentals in London? We are stand up citizens in a bit of a pickle, not purchasing until the new year.

Thank you

I'm looking for the London version of the old Pizza Pizza commercial / jingle that went:

Hey hey hey!

I've found the Toronto 697 version but looking for the London 667 version. If anyone has access to it or know where I can find it, it would be greatly appreciated!

I love this person. We need more like them!

Looking for transportation back from Toronto Pearson to London on Friday with a colleague.

Robert Q is $108 per person so $216 total. Uber says $160 for the ride and would be far more convenient. Company will pay for it.

Has anyone ever taken an Uber from the airport to London? Is it easy to get a driver to take the trip?

Thank you

I love shaved ice but it’s so hard to come across in Canada especially real shaved ice that’s not hard to bite (and not a snow cone)

Does anyone know where I could get one in London or near by?

A resident reached out to me today asking for clarification on whether they now lived in Ward 5 or Ward 3. This is usually one of the first things I let people know about when door-knocking, but this resident wasn’t able to make it to the door when I came around.

Short answer:

If you live in the green section shown, you are presently in Ward 5, but you'll be voting for Ward 3 because after November 2026, you'll be living in Ward 3.

So, if you live within the boundaries shown below, then you’ll be voting for your Ward 3 City Councillor (not Ward 5) in the upcoming Municipal Election on October 26, 2026 .

If you live in London, what has your experience been like receiving public information about the wildfire smoke and extreme heat? Where do you think the city can improve its preparedness and response?

It is a pain pulling out of there for work.

Hello! I’m from Waterloo but will be having major surgery done at LHSC soon, and my mom is going to come stay with me while I recover. I was hoping to put together a list of some cute shops/cafes/places to go that would appeal to a woman in her 50s so that she has some fun things to do other than babysit me. Any recommendations would be great, and location isn’t too important as she will have access to a car. Thanks!

Had to re upload since my video didn't get included...

So I decided to take my kayak out to fish in Walkers pond after work. Shortly after getting into the water I see some commotion about halfway into the pond. Another guy in a kayak had someone hanging off the back and he was trying to paddle back to shore. So I paddle over and ask if everything is ok/if they need a hand. Buddy in the kayak says, all good but can you grab this backpack and bring it to shore since it's very heavy. He passes the backpack, which will weighs like 30lbs for some reason, and I start to row back to shore. Drop the bag on a rock and start to head back out. Buddy has rowed to the shallows at this point and swimming dude is walking back to shore.

I ask them both if they're good and everyone says yup. Figured they were trying to tandem kayak in buddy's small kayak and the other dude took a dip. Kayak buddy is already back out and starts to fish again. Anyways I think my good deed for the day is done so I'm gonna start fishing as well and start paddling out. This is where I probably should've thought everything through but mind was focused on fishing so it went under the radar. Like why did fishing dude just casually go back to fishing, why did he just leave his buddy on shore with no rod, why was swimming dude's backpack so heavy....

So paddle out and start making a few casts. About 10-15 mins after I leave swimming dude, I see him back out in the water and he's swam back out to the almost the middle of the pond. I yell out, 'dude, we just got you back to shore, the hell are you doing back in the water?!' He yells back, backpack and all, 'someone pulled a knife on me at the entrance, I'm safer here than on shore'. He keeps going on with more nonsense all while swimming deeper into the pond.

At this point I knew the guy was having a mental crisis so I call 911. Gave the dispatcher my wild story and tried to give her directions on how to reach the launch point. Asked if they want me to row out to get they guy but dispatch said just wait for the responders but keep an eye on him. 10 mins in and the 1st set of responders come which were 3 cops. I give them my Coles notes on the situation and ask if they want me to paddle out and get them. They say no and start checking in with their superiors. Then the one female officer say screw it and asks if she can borrow my kayak. So empty it out and give her the paddle. The other female officer says I'm coming too and jumps on as well. They both start paddling out and I'm on shore dying since I just had my kayak commendeered by the cops. Fire rescue comes about 10 mins after with 2 life rafts and over a dozen more crew. They all row out and meet up with the other officers on my kayak and guide them back to shore. Swimming buddy is all right and they take him back to the entrance.

Anyways, that was my adventure of the evening. All of this because I wanted to catch a couple of fish after work. Yes I did catch a little dink after, but it was getting dark so I had to pack up.

Ps...

Big props to London 1st responders. From the time I made the 911 to someone showing up was only around 10 mins. They got marine rescue on site in about 20.

Pps...

To the London police dept - dm me when you get a chance, your team bumped a rock when they got back to shore and scuffed my hull a bit. We can discuss my bill in private.

I hope your officers had a bit of fun with this wild call I made. Emergency aside, they looked like they were having a lot of fun.

Other candidates have been quite active this time around. What’s the general consensus on the current list of candidates?

Hi everyone, is there anyone that does or know where I could request custom freelance pottery pieces? I’ve heard of Clay by Meg but her shop seems to be closed right now. Please let me know if you have any opinions it would be greatly appreciated.

Fast-moving electric motorcycles and scooters seemingly driven by unlicensed kids are an issue in my neighborhood parking lots, sidewalks and bicycle lanes. Are your neighborhoods concerned and is there a way forward short of banning these fun and inexpensive transportation options?

As the title says, I was wondering if there are any non-facebook Buy Nothing groups around London.

I know there is The Buy Nothing Project but it seems pretty quiet on there. I also thought about suggesting a discord channel but usually the groups are for small areas not all of London.

Thoughts?
