Re: Still confused about Canadian calling....

I think that's one of the issues I have with Toronto and the GTA. As in London when the city became to much I had a lot of options... i.e. home counties, Brighton or Whitstable. There is very...

Re: Vacuum Cleaners HELP!

Re: Vacuum Cleaners HELP!

I use one of the Bissell hepa filter vacs - reasonable price. Also the Hoover windtunnel ones can be had for under 200 at Sears or Cad Tire. Stay away from Dirt Devil - rubbish.

Re: Breakfast Choices

Same here... I live in a palatial 600 sq ft downtown condo. No room to swing my cats :p

I've got just about enough counter space for a coffee machine and that's it.

Re: Breakfast Choices

Yesterday I went to an Irish bar on College. Had the weekender which included peameal bacon and a farmers sausage. I had to send barperson for HP. Coffee was an organic columbian. Rather tasty.

Re: Intro \ 6 day Anniversary

There is one of those just south of Carlton and Church - satisfies the Ryerson crowds - always looks jammed.
