@under_coveranon @unpopularcheer @missspeat @CuntyOrDie It costs like $350 to get off this island (even just to go to Atlantic provinces) … let alone get back. Virtual is game changing for CSSNL and CWE. Each team travels once a year due to cost, if we didn’t do virtual the athletes would not be ready.

@SharkWeek @DiscoveryCanada why are we only getting day 1 of Shark Week on @discoveryplus ?

[N E Payne @nepayne2]

@EddieSheerr We fly to Florida… Saturday! Hahaha. First flight in the morning so hopefully it starts later, but I’ll be checking in with your updates! Thanks!

[N E Payne @nepayne2]

@harleyf In the pic? Yep! Flying YOW tomorrow for a couple days then road tripping that way again! Can’t keep @jnormore away forever, hahah.

@tctaylor87 That sucks! I miss Ottawa so much, I hope you make it!

@porterairlines if you have a plane stuck in YHZ that can’t go west due to storm, and one stuck west that can’t get out east, could that one in YHZ theoretically take over the run to YYT?

@TerismithTeri @dwancherry They dogs are deserving. The problem is this “rescue” doesn’t do anything more than bring them here leaving many sick and set up for failure, leaving them without homes once again.

[N E Payne @nepayne2]

@dwancherry I got one of my dogs through them (because a friend fostered so I knew the dog). They didn’t want to release the vet file to me at first and thought I was crazy for wanting a quick check with my vet when I got her. I can see why they didn’t want me know… negligence at best.

@EddieSheerr @ticwriter83 Yes we have one kid in daycare that has caught just about everything out there this year… we have never had COVID.

@dog_rates @subaru_usa My rescue babies! Strangely enough the husky I rescued from Texas in the US and the Pittie mix from Northern Manitoba, Canada.

@ladycowparsley @DeckBeersNL @AuntTriffie @BrentNorthcott Red Cross is great. The town of PAB is organizing another way also but haven’t released details.

[N E Payne @nepayne2]

@DeckBeersNL @AuntTriffie @BrentNorthcott They are. It’s behind my grandparents old house and that’s my uncles gear, all gone. Is it really the time to troll people about their tragedies?

[N E Payne @nepayne2]

@dog_rates @Trupanion My Pittie Mix Daisy with my eldest. Just the sweetest, cuddliest, most kid loving dog ever despite her rough start before we rescued her.

[N E Payne @nepayne2]

@tctaylor87 Good luck! If you need any help looking at things before you get to town I’m happy to help!

[N E Payne @nepayne2]

@levindesigner Omg a decade! It was so amazing, we were the proudest of friends.

[N E Payne @nepayne2]

@piya @landwashbrewery down the road from me is lovely, @bannermanbrewco is great too. Lots of local brews at the corner stores from across the island and Labrador. If you get a nice day I love the beer garden at Bar Brew Dock too and they have lots to good food and local beer on tap.
