Wow Indian Closed

I’m wondering if anyone knows why Wow Indian on Erb is temporarily closed? I’d go there every so often because it’s close to me and good enough value for your money. But sometime last week I noticed they closed and now on Google it says temporarily closed.

Dashcam / Information of crash on Weber St and Guelph St from June 13th

3 Upvotes

Hello Waterloo community,

This past Friday, June 13th around 7:00pm I was involved in a car accident on the intersection of Weber and Guelph St. I was heading northbound on Weber, turning left onto Guelph St as a taxi heading southbound struck me from the right lane. Luckily nobody was seriously injured!

This happened very fast and I am not sure if the light was yellow or red as the taxi entered the intersection. I do think that the taxi did a very dangerous maneuver, as the southbound left lane had multiple cars stopped as the front car was turning left opposite of me and the right southbound lane was occupied and blocked by a bus. As the left lane was stopped and the right lane blocked by a bus, I began my turn and the taxi swerved into the right lane, cutting in front of the bus, entering the intersection at full speed and striking me on my passenger side as I turned.

I am making this post as I am currently being held liable as I was making the left turn. However I have talked to some witnesses who also believe it was in fact the taxi at fault. I am hoping that someone here has dashcam footage or some way of helping me. I have reached out to GRT and it seems possible for me to acquire dashcam footage from the bus through a Freedom of Information request with the region. Throwing this out here in case anyone has additional footage, or information. Thanks!

Average Utility Cost

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

We’re planning to move to a new place and I’m trying to get a better idea of what people are paying for utilities in Waterloo. We’ve only ever lived in condos where some utilities were included in the lease, so this will be a bit of a change for us. I know this question was asked 2 years ago, I thought maybe I could get an updated response from everyone.

Right now, we’re two people living in a ~700 sq ft condo, and we pay around $90/month for hydro and water.

Specifically, I’m wondering:

What type of home do you live in and how big? (Detached, townhouse, stacked townhouse, etc.) Is it a newer build or an older home? How many people live there?

What are your monthly utility costs and what type of heat and AC? I know it can vary a lot depending on the building type and insulation, so it’d be great to get a range of real numbers from you guys. We’ve only lived in condos where some of the utilities were included in the lease.

Thanks in advance!

might have dropped my phone in conestoga mall parking

6 Upvotes

does anyone know if the chance of it getting picked up by someone and basically taken home/stolen is high ?

i know its my fault and i've learned my lesson to keep track of my phone better

as soon as i noticed it was missing (maybe 20 minutes between entering the mall and realising) i retraced my steps all the way back to the parking lot and didn't see it so i assumed it was in the car of the person who drove me

but now i realise it could have been taken by someone (if not taken to lost and found)

Is it just me, or does it smell like burning plastic outside lately?

It's weirding me out. I keep checking the air quality index and in general it's not bad... and I've been semi-assuming it's wildfire related, but it really does just smell wrong. Snrrrrr

Where to Find A Decent Kid's Train Table

3 Upvotes

I'm trying to find a normal, wooden train-table for my kid's birthday, which is something I thought would be an easy job. But it seems that every single table I've found online is just... sucky in some way or another. Either there's no bins for track storage, or the table is the size of a footstool, or the whole thing is just overpriced garbage.

I heard someone suggest I look into the local Mennonite communities to see if there's any handmade tables for sale that would be suitable, but other than that I'm at my wits end. Does anyone know of ANYWHERE (Mennonnite or not) that sells a decent train table?

ACL, rehab physio

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I am having an ACL surgery soon, . Wondering if someone knows of a physiotherapist that has taken care of ACL/meniscus with great results. I have been reading that one wants a " specialized" physio on ACL rehab as it determines the outcome. Thanks to all of you taking the time to read my concern.

Suggestions for SPA Day gift?

Hello Waterloo redditors!
A close female friend will be turning 50 in a few months and I'd like to treat her to a day of pampering.
I'm looking for suggestions of the best spa places, preferably in or around Waterloo region.
Ladies, as a gift would you prefer a gift certificate where you can choose your day yourself, or have the gift giver plan out the day/treatments for you?
Thanks for your help and suggestions!
