MM is such a great writer. Glad to read she’s still contributing to the Wpg Free Press while on sabbatical in Kyiv. #CosoCanuck #AFreePressMatters ☮️💟 https://open.substack.com/pub/melissamartin/p/pawns

ST. JOHN'S, N.L. - In an improbable confluence of geopolitical strife, childhood wonder and salty air, a Ukrainian watchmaker has repaired a 118-year-old town clock in eastern Newfoundland that hadn't told time in decades.
Liudmyla Pass, 68, had been in Newfoundland less than a month when she climbed the stairs to the long-silent clock tower in the coastal town of Carbonear on Tuesday, armed with her tools and five decades of expertise.

This is how you “corporate” I’m an elearning designer and I’ve had a subscription to https://thenounproject.com/ for years. I emailed them about something and got this response. If you need iconography, you can see why I highly recommend supporting them.
@Jezibaba @NorCalCherylLyn thanks for the list. I have some #CosoCanuck outlets bookmarked and will dig them out and share

Did a search for 'boiler' in a neighbourhood fb group earlier today because our boiler pilot light went out and wouldn't stay relit. Shout out to the folks who said 'call Hydro' - they came this evening, sussed out the issue and replaced the part for $20 - no labour cost. The fellow said he and his co-workers wished more folks knew they provided this service, so now you ALL know! Yay for public utilities!!! #mbpoli #CosoCanucks
@Vikky Our sweet and very intelligent part Abyssinian Emily has shown some hesitation to leap up onto things- sometimes misses, sometimes has no problem. But the litter box comment gives pause because our other cat has been an occasional “out of the box “ pee-er for years (she’s a DSH and on Metacam and Amitriptyline for bladder issues). Maybe we’ve been glaring at the wrong culprit…
Question for #cosocats folks: what are some signs of arthritis in cats?
@kel Either way it was fowl play. (I mean it was right there… what was I supposed to do?¿)
Maybe it's just me, but if you have to hold a 1.5 hr seminar to explain the 10 docs and annexes, each with their own instruction docs, that are required to bid for an opportunity to apply for contracts, perhaps your process is a bit cumbersome... #worktoot
Do you know someone who is looking for English language (EAL) lessons? A most accomplished and amazing friend (former SIL) is accepting new students for December or January start dates, from beginner to advanced levels. Will be done via Zoom I believe. DM me if you know someone. #CosoCanuck
