#yqr — Public Fediverse posts

It's spring-ish today on the Canadian prairies, and while I was out running errands a car cruised by me in the parking lot. A little Acura coupe with the sunroof open, and a dog's head [1] sticking up out of it, loving the breeze, the smells, and the sights of all the people.

It was a good day.

[1] What looked like a cross between a husky and a border collie - pretty sure its IQ was higher than anyone in the US administration's cabinet.

Live in #Regina? Have something that's #broken and you'd like it fixed? How about getting it fixed for #free?

Regina has a Repair Cafe! It started a year or so ago. I started volunteering when I found out about it. The volunteers are all great people, and between them they seem to fix a lot of stuff - everything from garment #repair to bicycles to power tools to electronics, and more.

I'm not an official spokesman or anything - I just volunteer. But if you're in the #YQR area, you can get the date and location of the next repair cafe from this webpage:

https://www.envirocollective.ca/repair-cafe/

There's also a link from there to where you can sign up for a repair spot. Walk-ins are taken as possible, but reserved timeslots are served first.

As I write this, the next one is on Saturday 21 March at the Circle Project, 3433 5th Ave. I haven't actually looked where that is yet, must do that.

Anyway - come get stuff fixed for free, by friendly folk in a relaxed atmosphere. And save one more thing from ending up in the #landfill.
