I have featured Jimmy's Coffee shops on several locations for various memes but thought it would be a good addition to T for Tuesday.
JIMMY'S AT GERRARD, including the back story to the name Jimmy's.
Can you believe I forgot to include this famous Jimmy from the Ossington location????
This Jimmy's is in Kensington Market, a fun place to visit. Click on the label/tag below this post to see more Kensington Market sights.
Makes my grammar heart happy as one of my many irritations is misuse of LOOSE VS LOSE!!!!
I am not sure what is difficult about lose and loose with such different meanings. I love the nuanced tea offer.
ReplyDelete...neat images, but he spelled his name Jimi!
ReplyDeletelooks like an interesting place to visit Happy T wishes Kathy
ReplyDeleteNice collection of murals. It's so easy to be hung up on other people's spelling and grammar mistakes, and then to become peevish about it, but I agree with you, carelessness or ignorance can really be annoying. You are lucky that you aren't locked down.

Mae, we are in a lockdown. These photos were taken in 2018.
DeleteI'm enjoying the Jimmy photos. That patio area looks like just the thing :) Happy T Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteCoffee shops are my favourite shops. Happy T Day, Valerie
ReplyDeleteI like that British Tea translator. And nice murals too! Happy T day!
ReplyDeleteWow a terrific mural of Jimmy on the side of the building. Seems a neat place, like the patio area. Thx for sharing. & stopping by my site recently. I will add your site to follow. regards, susan
ReplyDeleteps. I just realized that Jimi spelled his name with and i ... it seemed to jog my memory
ReplyDeleteThat Hendrix wall painting is so impressive-wow!! I'm a stickler for using the correct version of words also;)
ReplyDeleteLove the British Tea Translator:):) Happy T day!
Great murals. The British Tea Translator made me laugh. Needed that. Happy T Day!
ReplyDeleteSuch wonderful murals and I love the cafe setting - gorgeous! The British tea translator really made me smile - perfect 😀. Happy T Day wishes! Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteVery nice indeed. The murals are fabulous. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI always LOVE it when you take us to one of Jimmy's locations. This mural is absolutely incredible, but the ones insid you shared are great, too. So many Jimmies, so little time. I think your British Tea Translator is "spot on."
ReplyDeleteI like it and thought the British Translator was funny. Happy T Day!
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely mural. Of course of all the Jimmies, he is a legend (although he spelt his name Jimi).
ReplyDeleteYes, I also get annoyed when people misspell things. I try not to be too pedantic about it. But English is my second language, but I am a better speller than my husband, who is British.
Yes, I did get the tea translation. I actually practice it. When situations threaten to get out of hand, I will announce that I'm going to put the kettle on etc. Or when there is an embarrassing silence, I will ask if anyone wants some more tea... It's a shame the Spanish don't drink tea!
Happy (belated) T-Day,
Lisca
Great murals. And I chuckled at the tea translations. Happy T-Day!
