Re: Good (taste & value) Indian food in TO?

My favourite is Trimurti

http://www.trimurti.ca/home.html

Re: Heat Help

4Bells - you have summed up our dillemma perfectly. What's up with that indeed?

Think I'm going to get her the $153 subscription to 'Now'.

But it is odd you can't get one of the most popular...

Re: Food help

The Brit shops I know are both in the east end I'm afraid. They're both on the small side but pack a lot into them - including all the things you've mentioned.

The first is called Chocolate Box at...

Re: Heat Help

When I look at the Heat website I see the one year subscription (Rest of the World) as 250 pounds. I don't know where you're seeing $153.

She does look at the website but it's apparently only a...

Re: Heat Help

I'll give it another try but have not seen them in the past, nor in the magazine shops that call themselves "International". Thanks for the reply though.

Heat Help

Does anyone know where I can buy the UK gossip magazines 'Heat' or 'Now' in the Toronto area. No-one seems to sell them. It would make my partner very happy. (A subscription costs about 250 quid, so...

Re: Hand luggage with Air Canada

I've not had my hand luggage weighed by Air Canada before but I've seen others get randomly spot-checked

That said - their allowance is generally a bit more generous that the charters. You're...

Re: East V West

Re: East V West

Actually a recent report said that housing in the west is overvalued, so you may find that prices might fall a little out west. Ontario generally is pretty expensive, especially the Greater Toronto...

Re: British Goodies In Toronto

I also have some British friends in Michigan. Does anyone know any British shops nearer to them in southwestern Ontario - IE: London, Chatham, Windsor way?

Re: British Goodies In Toronto

I've been to the Nutty Choclatier before and it does have a lot of Brit goods too. I found the selection and prices here much better and the fresh baked goods are a bonus too. We had Scottish beef...

It's called Mrs. Bridge's British Bakery:

Re: Cost of Living in Toronto

Hi,

I don't have a break down for all these things and this is a very loose comparison.

But every time I go back to UK I notice most things in Toronto seem to be around half the cost of...

Re: Canadian PR visting USA for one week

I strongly support the view that you should get health insurance for ANY trip to the U.S regardless of your nationality. We even get it if we're going over the border for dinner. Get hit by a car, or...

Maybe a bit off topic, but if you're going to Gatwick - and a lot of these flights do - we saved a lot of money taking the local train with Southern, instead of Gatwick Express. It comes quite...

This is true as far as it goes but there are a few things you should be aware of.
