Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
Spotted : to the great neighborhood at the corner of askin and norfolk, we all help each other with chores, childcare, meals, offering one another a strong and caring sense of community
Spotted : To our most wonderful neighbour on Betts Avenue that clears the sidewalks and driveways. You're the first one out the door when the storm starts to clear, and with everyone sick in the house during the last storm, you really, really helped us out. Your kindness is so well appreciated and it's not just this time of year either, you've been spotted helping us out with lawns in the summer and fallen trees after a storm. Your heart is gold making you a treasure. Thank you. So very, very much.
Spotted : To the two gentleman who seen my husband and I struggle to get two toddlers in the house along with a trunk full of groceries and offered to help at 8:30pm it was so cold we appreciate your kindness! Thank you!
Spotted : to the man in the white van who stopped on Shepherd street to help my brother and boyfriend get my small yellow mazda out of the snow as it was stuck. Thank you so much! We appreciate it greatly--we tried to get it out for half hour---let me know who you are so I can buy you a coffee!!! Its nice to see caring helpful people still exist---
I read this on someone else's page and thought, what a great idea. Although it's a nice gesture, instead of buying random people coffee why not do this. Especially in this cold weather there are people who could really use this. Just a suggestion...
"We enter a little coffeehouse with a friend of mine and give our order. While we’re approaching our table two people come in and they go to the counter: Five coffees, please. Two of them for us and three suspended. They pay for their order, take the two and leave.
I ask my friend: What are those suspended coffees?
My friend: Wait for it and you will see.
Some more people enter. Two girls ask for one coffee each, pay and go. The next order was for seven coffees and it was made by three lawyers - three for them and four suspended . While I still wonder what's the deal with those suspended coffees I enjoy the sunny weather and the beautiful view towards the square in front of the cafe. Suddenly a man dressed in shabby clothes who looks like a beggar comes in through the door and kindly asks do you have any suspended coffee?
It’s simple - people pay in advance for a coffee meant for someone who cannot afford a warm beverage. The tradition with the suspended coffees started in Naples, but it has spread all over the world and in some places you can order not only a suspended coffee, but also a sandwich or a whole meal.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have such cafes or even grocery stores in every town where the less fortunate will find hope and support? If you own a business why don t you offer it to your clients I am sure many of them will like it.
Spotted : To the jerk who wrote 'can't park' in the snow debris on my car in the GoodLife parking lot at Tecumseh Mall: it is called snow. When I parked at 7:30am the lot was snow covered and I couldn't see the lines, so I parked beside another car. I'm sorry that when the snow melted I was parked on a line, but get a brain and think about why that might be before you put your stupid fingers on my car or anyone else's again. RUDE
Spotted : to the gentleman that gave a Costco cart guy a tip yesterday. I can't imagine that job is fun in the snow and freezing cold. I watched the young mans face as you drove away, smile ear to ear!!
