Please Make Note Of  Our FYI Holiday Break: Sept. 8-15

By David Farrell

The stores and online ads are already starting to tout Halloween and Christmas, but the fact is it’s September and the FYI team has been ploughing forward without a break since last Christmas, but we’re taking one next week.


Please note that there will be no website updates from September 8 through the 15th  and the next newsletter won't be published until Thursday the 21st.

We apologize for the interruption, but we too need time to relax and decompress. For me, it’s my first trip to Cape Breton, and assuredly I will return rejuvenated and ready to go the final distance before 2023 drifts into the new year.
