House Insurance Companies

I’m seeking fellow neighbours’ wisdom and experience before shopping around. Does anyone know of a decent company that offers house insurance for a home on Thetis? Or any companies I should avoid? 

I’d appreciate your insight. 

Please call, text or email.

Free and For Sale Items

Free 32" tv (not smart tv).

Still works fine, used in our previous home and brought here in case we wanted to use it, but turns out we don't need a second TV. Unfortunately, the stand was lost in the move so will have to be wall mounted.

Free Christmas Tree Stand

Heavy metal type. no leaks, just bought a new one.

Two Wood Bar Stools

These are original Pier 1, solid wood and got some good heft to them. They are dark reddish wood, 29" seat height. Were $300 each new, asking $100 for the pair. Good condition - few nicks and bumps on legs. email for pics

Unique dining table

Brought table with us hoping to have a spot for it, but time to accept that we don't (sad to part with it). It's very heavy, seats 6, black block legs and frame and has a one-of-a-kind zinc sheet top. It served us well for many years as a kitchen table and the zinc has been weathered by the memory of many fabulous dinner parties. $150. 

Email for pics.

Change the Date: The First Soup's On will be on October 14th not the 7th.

Graeme Shelford asked us to hold a Soup's On event on the same day as Veronica's Celebration of Life. Veronica was a big part of Soup's On over the years. So of course, we said yes.

So, the first Soup's On is on October 14th at 11:30. 

Sorry for any confusion.

Helen and Gloria

PS. We will advertise again closer to the date.

Goosey Gander Shop Open Saturday and Sunday 10 to 4

Do you know what is wooden and hollow, about four feet long, painted in brown and creamy colours and makes a strange low rumbling sound? There’s one in the Shop. It’s a Didgeridoo all the way from Australia. 

There’s also a lovely 40-year-old wooden flute from Nepal. And if you have searched and searched on west coast beaches in hopes of finding an old Japanese glass float, you are in luck. A whole box was found hidden in a basement and they are being offered at a very reasonable price. Now is your chance to own one. 

A couple brand new items came in too, a Soda Stream and a Magnavox Boom Box. 

Last Saturday morning Pat & Tim Mattson won $50 in gift coins for luckily buying the 5000th item sold. Actually they bought number 5001 too.

A big thank you to them, and to all of you who have shopped here over the years.
