D@*m I miss Tim Hortons!

I have to get this PR sorted out!

Is it the coffee or the donuts you miss, or just the prospect of being "pummelled with timbits"

I read somewhere that there was one in London somewhere, but it could be an urban myth.

definately the doughnuts, the missus started calling me Homer after a few days as any attempt to eat out ended at tim hortons!

In London? This I have to check! Thanks

Ive a nasty feeling that even if there is one, it will be a pale immitation of the real deal...Rather like the labatt "Blue" I was unfortunate enough to try on my last visit

You're so right, its the way of theworld!. Tried the old web pages, but all I got was that TH was float on the London stock Exchange so no luck there.

Never mind, I shall wait with anticipation until I am over there(hopeful the beer gut will have gone down by then LOL!!)

Thanks Iain

Isn't is a little overrated?

I sometimes go there and the iced cappuccino is nice, but the 'atmposphere' isn't so good, especially the one south of the Eaton Centre, just go a few blocks across and there is a nice one in Bay but still a drunk managed to fall over the other week

Probably around 50% of the time I have been in there (different ones across Toronto), there has been some kind of problem.

I actually prefer Starbucks, I'm not a snob but every time I visit somewhere I always try to go to one and get a city mug.

Just my opinion.

but Marge, you don't understand!! the donuts, the donuts...arggggle

babsi

I prefer Krispy Kreme

Sukhi,

There being one in London, is just a load of bollocks, if there is one there, i would have known about it, as i know every nook and crannies there is to know about london.

Anyway...Did you try the blueberry fritters or the dutchies? Those are our favourites, along with the french vanilla capp. Summer usually sees the arrival of the iced capps, i must say i won everything on the rollllllll up the rim, except the car, plasma screen and other big prices.

I have never understood the idea of sitting in there and having your Timmy Ho, its usually the old folks sitting there having a chat about nothing really.

Williams is a good one to chillout in, if you must sit in there. Was in port dover over the weekend, had my best timmy ho in canada so far :-)

BLASPHEMER!!! dont let immigration find out!

Actually, I've never met a donut I didnt like, but I'm still looking

Iced Cap's are all year round, as I had a few over winter, but one place in particular and I will name them (Bay and Bloor) like to make out there machine isn't working over winter

Krispy Kreme and Starbucks I am very bad then

Covenant

what! you mean Tim Hortons arn't the only donut manufacters? Therte is a GOD!!!

mickj

No....they are not Sukhi, so much for your fact-finding mission then :-) Krispie creme are alright, and queues have been known to go round the block in some parts of the country, which explains the size of people really :-(

My favourite from there, are the dark ones, especially "devils food", you have to try that one.

There is also your roadside shops like bakers dozen donuts and all that. That is the least of your worries though if you do take the plunge to come over here.

Think about this one "CANADIAN EXPERIENCE" :-)

Covenant

you mean eating donuts isn't enough?

mickj

Not even saying "pardon me" and "eh" is enough.
