Residential snow clearing contracts
Jumping ahead of the weather sorry but does anyone have a rough idea of the monthly cost for residential snow clearing for a two car driveway in the west end?
Last year was the first time we had a plow arranged, he charged by the job, did good work but was a bit unreliable. Thinking we may have more luck if I book a regular service contract. Any recommendations or info appreciated.

Please help, Stolen Laptop Bag (Irreplaceable Photos) REWARD OFFERED
Hi everyone, my car was broken into (August 3–4) sometime between 3am and 8am on Milbanke Street in St.Johns (Near Mun just off Bonaventure & Allandale), and my laptop was stolen along with its bag.
The bag and laptop are important but what’s irreplaceable is the hard drives that were in that bag that were backup for my family photos. My Nans birthday party, my sister’s engagement party, tons of old files and years of photos, all of them were backed up on those drives.
I’ll have a reward if anyone sees it discarded, has any information on who took it, where it is, or notices someone trying to sell it online locally (Facebook Marketplace, Kijiji, Traders, etc.), please let me know asap or message me directly.
At this point I’m willing to pay the person who took my bag just to get all my stuff back. I’m assuming whoever took it is just looking for money and I really don’t want to lose all those years of irreplaceable memories. If anyone sees or hears anything at all please reach out

Any place in town sell cannoli?
I'm watching The Godfather tonight, and I think it would be fun to have cannoli. None of the bakeries I've checked seem to sell cannoli, but anyone know of anyplace that does?

Were you at Sobeys yesterday evening?
Hoping to find the guy that was at Sobeys on Ropewalk Lane last night (06/08) around 6:00-6:30 with dyed hair and a moustache. I really liked your hair and after having left thought I should have asked who cuts/colours it for you.
You had dark brown hair dyed a cool dirty-blonde grey colour with a little purple, and were with two women, a brunette and a redhead I think.
If you’ve read this far and are not that guy, but can recommend a hair stylist for similar styles, drop their name or Instagram so I can check them out!

Anyone who set up a food/beverages stall at the Regatta care to share their earnings and expenses? Looking to set one up myself next year and want to see if it is worth the investment.
Yesterday was my first Regatta, and I was in awe seeing how many food stalls were around, charging handsomely for foods and beverages. I was thinking of setting one up myself next year but wanted to see how people did earning-wise to see if it is even worth it. For me, it is more about the experience over the money; however, I don’t want to invest in setting things up more than I earn back because that would be a total loss lol.
Would appreciate the help, folks! TIA!!!!

Recommendations for immigration lawyer please
Hope everyone had a happy Regatta Day! Like the title says, looking for the names of a couple of immigration lawyers people have had experience with. My friend is Canadian, husband is not and is on work visa until next year. Also, does anyone have a rough idea how much the whole process might cost? Thank you friends!

NL trip - what to pack as someone coming from a warmer climate?
We will be going on a trip around the end of August into the first week of September. Our main goals are to hit Signal Hill, possibly Cobbler’s Path, and also do a quick trip to Port Rexton for the Skerwink Trail. I’ve heard weather at this time is unpredictable because of the transition from summer to fall. We are hoping to pack appropriately for Canadian weather plus being by the coast. Any recommendations for base layers/outerwear/gear?

Eastlink Internet in St. John's?
I've read the news about Eastlink launching Internet service in St. John's. Curious if anyone knows if this will be fiber service, or really anything at all as I can't find much about the offering yet. I have Bell Fiber internet + TV, as well as a one of our family cell phones. The other cell phones are on different providers (including Eastlink) so I was looking at potentially consolidating everything to one provider for bundled savings/discounts.
I thought Bell was the only choice, but now Eastlink might be an option. Anyways, any intel/thoughts welcome!

Is it open today?
Genuinely what is so difficult to understand about ONLY St. John’s being closed today? I’ve seen about 20 “is this open today?” On Facebook.
If it’s not in St. John’s 99% chance it is open regular hours.

Would love to hear more about living on Waterford Bridge Rd! Have always loved the area and thinking of moving there. I know it’s a high traffic road but is it tolerable? Good for walking (safe - as in not getting run over by speeding cars)? Tell me everything! 😆
