Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
So my 5 yr. old autistic son and I were going on our morning walk, which we've been practicing for a couple months now and need a lot of motivation to complete safely. We got to our last long stretch of block before home, and ran into our mailman. This guy is awesome and does a great job, with a smile on his face every day. Well today sir you put the biggest smile on my sons face the whole way home. You waved at him at least a hundred times, made honking noises, raced pass us delivering mail, than would let us pass you. Then finally we got home and you pulled up your truck, as my son waited on the porch for you. You came up and handed him the only piece of mail today and it so happened to be an autism magazine. You have no idea how much that meant to him, being he has an obsession with mailmen, garbage men, and construction men right now. These mail men and women are much more than just mail delivers, and this is why we need to save our door to door...thank you Mr. Mailman
HELLO,
we have a friend who attended a bridal shower on Sun Aug 23rd 2015 and lost her gold ring. The shower was at Caboto Club (we were in the Windsor Hall but it could be anywhere around there) It was gold with an embossed pattern of vine leaves (grape leaves or maple leaves) on it. It's very important to our friend and we would appreciate any information on it's whereabouts. Please contact us if you find it. email nickees_chickee@yahoo.com
Well yesterday at about 630 pm or so my daughter and I went to Costco. As we went to get our cart I noticed in the cart that it was linked to a set of fobs with one key attached to it. I returned it to the service desk and I hope who ever lost them gets them.back! I know it is a fortune to replace them!! So if your the one looking for them.go to Costco! ! & #128515;
Sitting in line at Tim Hortons this morning on Lauzon and Wyandotte....when I pulled up to pay, the officer in front of me bought my steeped tea! How nice is that? Brought a smile and bright moment to my day! Thank you!
Bike theft has become a major issue in Windsor. There are many people who rely on their bikes as their only means of transportation. There is a facebook page called Stolen Bikes of Windsor where people post photos and information about their stolen bikes as a means of getting the word out there and hopefully recovering their property. Recently someone posted the photos in the link below and we have had no luck identifying the man. Does anyone know who this is? We need to report this to the police..

Went to Shoppers after work. Wallet got stolen. Mall security was awesome, but didn't find it....get home and start cancelling stuff, and get a phone call from "Justin" who found my wallet in the parking lot, and had already been to my house to return it while I was searching with Mall Security.
The cash is gone but so what...everything else is still in there!
THERE ARE GOOD PEOPLE STILL!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Oliver Swainson and Bob Hodge must be recognized as heroes. These individuals saw a problem in Windsor and took action. They have formed a Facebook group to help prevent/ recover stolen bicycles. Rather than hoping someone else solved this ongoing problem, they jumped in and said "We can make a difference." Through word of mouth, FB traffic and a recent segment on the local news, 'Stolen Bikes of Windsor' has grown to almost 1000 members. These gentleman have accomplished this in a focused and respectful manner. Oliver & Bob's efforts have been noticed by the WPS culminating in a face to face meeting.
They are admirable examples of everyday citizens making a difference. Good on you, gents!
