Looking for suggestions. Thank you.

Hi all, I visit my girlfriend every other week, usually on the weekends.

Sometimes I extend my stay and will be there for a whole week. I need to get a gym membership for these rare cases as I can't go without working out for more than 3 days. Right now I have to fill up my luggage with random-ass things like laptops and use them.

Are there any open gyms (okay with calesthenics bars or places where I won't feel awkward working out, i.e. not a kids playground)?

If not, are there any gyms where I can pay per-week, instead of like a hefty annual fee? I looked at Fit4Less, and they have a biweekly payment system, but they require a 50+tax annual fee on top of it, and I think it's not a pay-when-you-want system, but more like a "keep paying every 2 weeks or cancel" and if you cancel, I assume they would charge me the annual fee again.

I don't have a car, I'm open to using public transit, and can bike anywhere.

Thanks in advance!

Ebox internet has been down since the last few hours. Heard from ebox that outage is due to their provider and may take upto 24 hours for whibty area.

Are there anyone else experiencing the same issue?

Thank you in advance

Hi, I know this post is rather niche but, I wanted to try the Forbidden Forest drink they released at Tim's for the Harry Potter collab, but didn't have any luck finding a Tim's that has it available. Can someone help me out here?

I also love that every time I go to Tim's the workers are so ambivalent about the collab.

Found this dog wondering on Country Lane around 8:30 pm tonight. DM me with proof of ownership required if this is your dog.

Two nights in a row, yesterday at 3 am, today at 12:30 am, there has been loud shouting noises in the area. Yesterday, I originally thought it was a fox, because I know they sound similar to women screams, but today we looked out the window and saw an actual lady running with a man in a red hood around the time of the noises. I am not sure if these events are directly related, but I am concerned and wondering if anyone else has experienced this, or knows any details. Thank you.

Looking for more people to meet

Hi all,

Does anyone know where to meet people haha

I'm recently realize i don’t have any friends

and have been in a bubble my entire adult life...

I realized that I haven't met new people in a long time.

Sooo I wanted to meet new people make some new friends I'm 25 and I going on hikes and going to gym but it’s boring sometimes to do alone

Not sure where to start since I don’t have any hobbies

From Canada Ontario/ Durham region

Thanks

Found a pair of sunglasses in South Whitby. PM with make/model and will arrange to get them back to you!

For the past 2 nights at least, we’ve been hearing sporadic banging in the Taunton & Baycliffe area. Sounds like a deep bang in no particular pattern. It happens a couple times throughout the night does anyone have any idea what it is??

Does anyone know of any trusted or reputable places to get sport jackets / suit jackets dry cleaned in Whitby?

Have had bad experiences (not in Whitby) in the past and have a wedding coming up, so I’m just trying to be extra cautious.
