I thought the point of this was not to call it Dundas and it still says Dundas! Would’ve been easier to leave it alone, but a make-work project is always a good time?!

My friend Geoff wouldn’t stop complaining about this abandoned motorcycle, so this morning I decided it should become a garden and this afternoon me and his girlfriend Eva created this Motorcycle Garden Pocket! Thanks to the bike’s neighbour for the broken bike basket—it made for a nice planter.

The barbershop in my neighbourhood said they needed a sign to tell pigeons not to hang out in and around the dog bowl. They did not expect me to actually do anything about it!

Yeah, the pool vacuum is working, and they think it gets turned on every morning, but “it’s just not good at getting the stuff at the bottom in the deep end.”

I was told by a “lane swimmer” standing in the pool during lane swim that I shouldn’t splash water when I swim laps. This person clearly thought she was at lame swim. Pls read the schedule carefully! Happy 100th birthday to Sunnyside Pool!
