A couple Fridays ago I bid farewell to the LFPress team. I’m sad to go but excited about what’s next. After several years of balancing full-time reporting work and law school, it’s time for me to become a lawyer. #ldnont

It was a privilege to tell London’s stories for so many years at the LFP – to show the city to itself, the good and the bad, day-in, day out. I wrote about so many things and came to know so many fascinating people!

The forecast was calling for a 50% chance of rain today. We’ve avoided it so far, but there is a light mist coming down now. Tons of students keep coming and going from Broughdale Ave.
Police are writing tickets. But it doesn’t seem to be putting a damper on the party. So far I’ve seen officers from Hamilton, Peterborough and London out on patrol.
Emergency workers have a command centre on Audrey Ave., a Broughdale Ave. side street. They also have these sweet golf-cart/UTV things. The crowds in this student party zone have grown considerably since noon.
