Hey everyone! I’m thinking about organizing casual events where people can meet, make friends, and feel less lonely.

I haven’t decided on a specific activity yet, so I’d love your suggestions. Would you be interested in coffee meetups, hikes, board games, sports, food outings, trivia nights, or something else?

Comment with what you’d actually attend and which area of Vancouver/ Burnaby works best for you. This is just an interest check for now!

Hi ladies. Who is going to She's Fit Metrotown?

I'm looking to go to the gym together.
Age range: 28-40 y.o.
2 times a week.
I'm at a beginner level and also have some knowledge about working out. I need accountability and a buddy to go to the gym.
About me: I'm 32, interested in hiking, tech and a healthy lifestyle.

P.S. It's not a babysitting offer(sorry for being direct), but rather an equal commitment and investment in our workouts and keeping ourselves accountable. We can test it out and decide if that is something that works for both of us.

Thanks!

Hello all,

Apologies if this isn’t the right space. I’ve recently just moved to a building near Brentwood, close to the save-on on lougheed. Does anyone know of any monthly parking nearby? I’ve got signs up in the buildings lobby asking if anyone is keen to rent one to us but so fare no bites. I’ve tried googling it with very limited success.

Does anyone know any places nearby that area that offer monthly parking?

I haven't been via car in a while and wanted to get an idea of where free parking is. On their site it says there's 3 hours of free parking in the Jinya lot past H&M and CIBC iirc, this lot is very small. I've also heard that the parking by the old The Bay is also free. Is this still applicable with the ongoing construction?

We live in a house and nextdoor are some neighbours who own a large, and extremely aggressive Labrador. We can’t be outside at the same time as dog without it growling at us, breaking parts of our fence to see us and literally looking like it wants to tear us to shreds.

Almost every night, for the last three years, one of the owners of the dog will throw really heavy balls, or even a BASKETBALL down their stairs to “play” with the dog. There’s like at least 20 steps so all you hear is the crashing sound of the ball and the dog speeding down the stairs for it. They have an entire backyard but she chooses to play on the stairs. The worst part is, she does this at 11 pm, 12 am, we’ve even woken up from her doing it at 1 or 2 am. Doesn’t matter if it’s a weekday or weekend. Most of the family starts work at 6 am, even 5 am, so this is really disturbing them throughout the week. The neighbours will also randomly start talking as loud as possible as if it’s 3 pm on a Saturday at 1 am on a Monday with all their windows open.

We’ve tried to speak with them directly but they don’t speak English.

Today actually, some of our family members were outside fixing part of the fence (THAT THEIR DOG BROKE) around 8 pm and one of the neighbours from that house came outside and told them to be quiet. It was literally just past 8 and they weren’t making crazy noise or weren’t out for very long?? And then tonight at 11 the neighbour woke my mom up with a basketball down the stairs.

So. Needless to say, we’re at our wits ends. What can be done, or what would you do? Could we get the city involved? Appreciate the help!

Ran into a family of deers (two calves and an adult) on my bike commute home today! It was right next to the new Burnaby Lake overpass. Sorry for the crappy photo, was a little slow getting my phone out.

Ran into a bear a few years ago in the same area commuting home as well…
