Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
I guess this isn't really a spotted. I was wondering if anyone knew this guy and how I could get ahold of him? Been out of contact for a few years and want to get back in touch. Thanks in advanced
I came home today around 5 p.m to find a parcel I received in the mail tampered with and stolen. I paid $67 for those baby shoes for my son and they are from Australia. I would greatly appreciate it if you would return them to me. Thank you.
On Sunday night around 630pm I found a car key on the path on the Riverside in west windsor. If it is yours tell me the make of your car or any other identifiers of the key if possible.
I was at Zehrs Sunday afternoon with my husband to get a few quick things when we discovered on check out none of our bank cards were working. We found out later the bank froze our account for "suspicious behaviour" which we didn't know of. It was embarrassing and awful but the lovely couple behind us in line handed me forty bucks to pay for our bill. They wouldn't let us get their address to repay them and said some very kind things. I went to my car and cried out of gratefulness to have encountered such wonderful and selfless people.
My mother in law has had an extremely rough year, losing her parents in back to back months last year and losing her brother this week, We were in Windsor making funeral arrangements today, when I begged her to stop and try to eat. She agreed, wanting to go to "The Leaf" as it is the old High-ho, where she worked as a teen.
The waitress we encountered there was beyond warming and wonderful, with not even knowing how our day/ week had been. I didn't catch her name, but if she sees this I know she will remember us!
You put a smile on my mother in laws face!! And for that, I owe you!!
The food was delicious, and in the end, we left Windsor with our spirits a little higher than when we had came.
Waitress from "the leaf" you have been spotted. Karma will embrace you!!!
The other day, I was at Remark farms racing to go to a dinner where I was supposed to bring some stuff - I had a container of cut watermelon in my hands along with other things and when I got to the cashier, I dropped the watermelon and it spilled all over the floor. A young man, in the next lineup with 2 of his friends (I estimate he was about 15) looked at me, smiled and immediately left the line. I thought he was going to get someone to clean it up - but he returned to the line with a new container of cut watermelon for me just in time for me to put it on the belt and pay for my items. AND got a staff member to come and help clean up the mess. Not often someone goes out of their way for you! I was especially touched because it was a teen out with friends and he did it without being asked or told, and without waiting for thanks. So THANK YOU - you made my day!!!!
To the girl whose car stalled on howard and edinburough,im glad you got home safe. It's too bad you suffered a little verbal abuse from some of those impatient drivers. Your situation could have been worse because of the few that weren't even paying attention. I'm glad I coukd help and thst you are safe.
I am a driver too, but when I have less than 10 kilometers to go, I take my bike. I'm the yellow vintage bike with the basket...you might have seen me. I try my best to follow the rules of the road, as per the Highway traffic Act, but more than half the time, no one sees me! I should rephrase it as, no one is looking for me!
A CYCLIST'S LIFE IS IN YOUR HANDS. You are driving a tonne of steel and glass, I am sitting on a little seat on some metal bars. I will do my best to make driving easier and safer for you, PLEASE stop endangering my life.
I love you Windsor, I moved back from Ottawa for you. I love my bike from Ottawa, but I did not miss the disrespect from Windsor drivers towards cyclists.
P.S. CITY OF WINDSOR MAKE BIKE LANES FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. And when they do exist, don't put a sign in the middle of nowhere saying "BIKE PATH ENDS". ?? What IS that.
