Or just cheap food n booze. Also a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 Winnipeg has an insanely high amount of restaurants per capita... it's such a competitive business that you absolutely need top notch service/quality of food to stand out. Now if I were to wish for a new restaurant to come to Winnipeg it would be Trois Brasseurs (3 Brewers). I had it in Quebec and it had great beers and solid dishes.

Apparently it was “secretly” purchased on January and will be redeveloped into retail. Staff were let go with no notice this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they were on a tour or something. They were exploring caves when fast rising water cut off the entrance. Apparently things can flood fast there. The coach took them further into the cave to look for an alternate exit and high ground to keep safe. One plan was to keep them there til October until rainy season passes. But they had bad weather moving in and I think I saw them saying the air wasn’t great hence the dive out plan. It will likely be a movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's the remarkable strength of character and courage shown by all of the people involved, and the level of skill of the people who found the boys, and then devised and are carrying out the plan to get them out. All led by two apparently quiet, non attention seeking, British civilian amateur cave rescue divers, one a retired fireman, one an IT guy, and also I think an Australian MD/cave rescue diver. I understand that It was the two Brits that initially went in, and found the boys and the coach. One 47, and the other 56 years old. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/07/09/meet-seven-british-divers-playing-leading-roles-thai-cave-rescue/ At one point they have to take off their tank, and go through an opening 38 centimetres across. they lead the boys out, one diver ahead of the boy, and one behind, all roped to each other, and to a line fixed to the cave wall. the boys do not wear a tank, the lead diver carries a second tank, which is connected to the boy's full face mask. brilliant, cause the tanks are heavy. and move. It's an almost incredible demonstration of fortitude, and skill. I also appreciate the Thai officials complete lack of grandstanding.... one short press conference a day, by one person. no questions. I learned that there are cave diving rescue societies, which of course these men are leading members of. And that they call diving in a cave where it is partly submerged, and partly not, sump diving. If you're following it, they do not have oxygen in their tanks, they have air. Edited July 9, 2018 by Mark F Wanna-B-Fanboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, they were having a picnic after a soccer practice & decided to go exploring. The caves are well known in the area as being dangerous & there are signs posted, right at the mouth of the cave, advising people not to enter (especially at this time of year).
