What's happening in Grimsby UK today? Hop over to the news there. That is the fun part of the internet.
We have similar weather - in Grimsby UK is 8 degrees Celsius. The weather in Grimsby ON is 6 degrees Celsius.
News similar? It doesn't look like it to me. What about this story: A toilet at a community centre has been turned into a recreation of a museum in Paris - the Louvre. The replica and other reproductions are in a bathroom. Another themed room in the building are The Great Escape. The art exhibit is called Grimsby's best kept secret.
What about this headline: Rescuers called to dog stuck in a ditch on Cleethorpes beach make an unexpected discovery. What is the discovery? The dog is a stone statue. Looks like my own spaniel statue to me. We're not likely to ever find a dog statue on our own Grimsby Beach - ever.
Here's a story that could be similar: The Body Shop to close Grimsby (UK) store after chain went into administration. So I looked it up for Niagara and the announcement is that the Niagara Outlets, St. Catharines and Burlington stores will stay open.
Here's a "whopping" difference. It is the building plans in Grimsby UK vs Grimsby ON. Grimsby UK is going to convert the historic Beeches Hotel and restaurant into nine homes and not be demolished. Grimsby ON's Cole's Garden Centre with its Christmas cottage and house is going to be the site of a seven-storey condominium. The "cottage" is shown in the condo picture, but we all doubt it will stand for long. How many residences will there be? 215 residential units in addition to the 148 units proposed at the next door Burgess House site - also an historical building that is expected to "fall down" so that construction can begin.
I suddenly wondered if I would be able to see the Cole's Condo building from where I live. But that won't happen - the new 4 storey hospital being built is blocking the view in that direction.
Here's a condo development that Ontario can admire - it is in Waterloo.
