NOTICES
We notice that some pet owners occasionally “misplace” their pets. If your dog or cat has somehow run away or “lost”, do let us know. Let us post it in the blog. Send us the information, not forgetting a photograph and we will do the rest.
IT’S ALREADY HAPPENING IN AND AROUND CANAL GARDENS!
FROM STRANGERS TO NEIGHBOURS
How many know that a few senior citizens gather at the guard post at about 6.30 pm along the canal almost every evening to exchange stories and just having a good time? Take an evening stroll along the canal and you will meet this group of “uncles”.
Do you know that as a result of a wedding, a baby full moon celebration and 2 house warming sessions where the whole street were invited, there is now a group of residents along Road S that occasionally find an excuse to gather during weekend nights to drink and banter around?
These are the human interest stories which we are interested in to bind us as a community and to make Canal Gardens a better place to come back to after a hard day's work.
If any resident wish to know more of the above, write to us at cgrakk@gmail.com.
Remember, we cannot do all this alone. We need you to chip in and make this blog a residents’ blog. It is your blog.
