Question ❓ Sober Friends?

8 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m looking for sober friends in St. Thomas Ontario. I’m trying to hit more AA meetings but am not doing the best with that. I love walking, eating and going to the beach. I grew up here but then moved to Toronto and recently moved back due to addiction issues. Not looking for judgement, just trying my best to find community. Thanks in advance! -Robin

Question ❓ Stray Cat

3 Upvotes

We live in the Airey Ave. Parish St. area and have seen a large grey cat roaming the neighborhood at night. This cat has been hanging around our house usually between midnight and 3am . We have a spayed female cat, and we are assuming this is a male.

This cat is very brave and will sit on the front porch window and side basement window sills, taunting our cat. We now have 2 destroyed window screens and a jumpy , nervous cat living in our home.

We are thinking this cat is an indoor cat being left out at night since it doesn't run away from people immediately until you go outside to confront it. We spoke to Animal Control and they have suggested the same.

We are looking for any information about this cat as we really want this behavior to stop and end the damage to our home and pet. We have spoken with some of our neighbors, and they have also seen and heard this cat at night.

Any help or information would be greatly appreciated. If this is your cat please keep it indoors as Bylaw has also informed us that letting a cat roam is a Bylaw offense that will incur a fine.

Photo/Video 📸 I made a video capturing last night's Nostalgia Night in St. Thomas

6 Upvotes

Went out to film Nostalgia Night last night and wanted to share it here. Didn't catch every moment (showed up a bit late, lol), but I think it captures the vibe of the evening pretty well.

Also composed an original track for it using AI, just for fun. Let me know what you think!

Hey everyone,

​I'm putting together a video to show our city and would love your recommendations on where to film.

​What are your favorite hidden gems that really show off St. Thomas?

I’m looking for:

- ​Great local cafes or businesses with a cool vibe.

- ​Scenic trails or parks, especially in the evening light.

- ​Everyday spots that just capture the community (markets, busy streets, dog-walking spots, etc.).

​Thanks for the help!

Question ❓ Turo hosts in London, Ontario/ St. Thomas Ontario

0 Upvotes

Hello,

I am trying to make a business case if it’s worth to purchase a new SUV for the purpose of renting on Turo?

Anyone has experience in St. Thomas as a host? How’s the demand? Is it worth purchasing 45k SUV solely for this purpose?

I have a personal vehicle, so this is just a side hustle I am curious about, and if any success stories like started with 1 vehicle, now has multiple models/listings?

I have read multiple Reddit posts, though none are from my area of interest.

Also targeting CAD 100/day for 5 person AWD new SUV is doable for weekdays?

Event Hello st thomas! If you're free tonight, come watch my choir perform

22 Upvotes

We're Univox choir, a non-auditioned community choir from toronto and we're putting on a concert in st thomas tonight! It's free to attend, or by donation. The venue is central United church at 8 pm.

We don't expect a huge turnout because we're not from the area and rely on word of mouth, but we've worked really hard on our repertoire and just want to share it with folks! We have some really cool music which is not exactly what people expect from choral music

So if you're in the area and free please come check us out!

Question ❓ Noise near Sunset and Shaw Valley Drive

2 Upvotes

There is a loud noise like a motor running hard outside. Anybody else here the noise? Was originally thinking it was something around my house but it sounds like it is further away. Almost like a plane flying over head but constant.

New to the area so not sure what it is. Any suggestions?

Question ❓ House cleaning

1 Upvotes

My wife and I are planning to list our house soon, so i thought I would reach out to the st.t community and see if there are suggestions for great house cleaners in the area. We have fresh paint basically top to bottom (some rooms last year, some this year). Just looking for a good deep clean before we do photos. Looking for wipe down baseboards, dusting, washing floors, blinds, shower, tubs etc. We are pretty clean people, but have 2 dogs, busy lifestyle, work out of town during the week etc to get the house photo shoot ready. Thank you in advance for any suggestions. Cheers

Question ❓ Share your London commute tips and tricks?

2 Upvotes

All these constructions along with the usual morning commute traffic is driving me nuts. Anyone have commuting hacks they want to share? I for one take pond mills from Wilton grove now instead of taking Wellington or highbury to take me downtown. But seriously we need more intercity public transportation options so there will be less cars on the road.
