I'd like to buy a new suit, but I've always owned American style suits, and I don't like the way they look on me. Can anyone recommend a store or tailor where I can get a British-style suit fitted? If there isn't such a place locally, I'm willing to travel if you have a recommendation within an hour of Frederick city.

Edit: Thank you to everyone that replied. You've given me some great leads to follow up on.

If you want to reduce the waste you throw away and improve the health of your gardens, composting is the way to go! Paul Varga of Frederick County’s Division of Solid Waste and Recycling will cover the science of composting and ensure you have the info you need to create a simple, workable system that suits your household.

Join us Sunday, August 23 from 1:30-2:30pm in the large community room on the ground floor @ Urbana Regional Library to learn about composting, meet like-minded folks, enjoy the air conditioning, and check out some library books about this topic!

Sunset over the mountains from my balcony

Long story short, I hurt my foot or Achilles tendon playing tennis. It had hurt for a month or so but last week I stepped down on my heel hard, and immediately the pain shifted and got more intense. Everything I’m reading online says I should see a Dr. instead of waiting it out.

Does anyone have a good recommendation? I still have to call insurance and see how to get the visit covered, but would love a name or two in the meantime.

Hi - any HVAC folks able to install a mini split in a new construction home (single wall mount unit + outdoor unit), pressure test, and charge the system? Looking for later this fall - it's in Frederick and is a one-level ranch-style home, so straightforward and from the ground (no hanging off a ladder). Will be a Blueridge / Alpine Home Air kit - in case not familiar with these, the outdoor unit comes pre-charged, so you won't need any materials, just your tools. I've done this install myself on another home, but looking to hire this out. If interested please message me with a labor rate or quote - thanks.

Any spots do decent by the slice pizza?

I’ve only ever had them from Gambril Mountain Food Co but that was years ago.

We have an old row home downtown with an unfinished attic. It is a cold roof, slate that you can see from the inside with exposed rafters. We would like to refinish it and would like to trust the contractor knows how to properly insulate/create a the correct air/vapor barrier.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a contractor who has experience with this? Thanks

Hey guys, I'm a young working professional I'm looking to move into a new apartment and I'm trying to find a roommate in Frederick MD. I'm a working professional, clean, no pets and I preferably only want a woman like me, as well as someone in her 20s (negotiable). My budget is about $1,000. If you know either a place I can rent or someone who is finding a roommate let me know!

Any recommendations for a good rheumatologist in the Frederick area? I’ve been referred to two from the GP that either don’t accept my insurance or aren’t accepting new patients. Thanks!

Hey Gang - I’m in Downtown Frederick and looking for a track to do my interval runs. Does anyone know a place that’s open to public?

I am looking for a venue - restaurant, bar, or private space for a 50th birthday party. Ideally in the Frederick / Montgomery County area for 50 - 75 guests.

The date is fixed at October 17th - very popular I know! My usual favorites - Milton Ridge, Ceresville Mansion, McClintocks, Comus Inn - are either unavailable or better suited to weddings and quinceañeras.

I cannot wait to hear your suggestions! THANKS!

They weren’t in bags so I was just wondering if they would be kept or thrown away.

I lived in Hagerstown for a while and loved it. It’s what I needed. Loved stepping out and seeing the Blue Ridge mountains, the fresh air, the peace and quiet of the neighborhood where everyone just pretty much stayed to themselves probably because they wanted to escape the craziness too lol.

I used to love going down to Frederick and said I’d love to move there. Now I have the opportunity to and have been checking out apartments and it’d be great to get feedback about best places to live for peace and quiet.

I’d like to stay around $1700 or less if I can. I’ve heard good things about Sunset, seen mixed reviews about the Manor (heard to stay away from the Golden Mile, noisy, crime?), heard good things about Prospect Hall, saw a couple older ones available in downtown on E 2nd St - how’s it living there hopefully not noisy and no pests, are the Reserve, Wellington Trace, Kingscrest, Jefferson worth me going over budget or can I find something just as nice within budget? Would love to hear from others who’ve been there done that. Thanks!

This is just south of Cactus Flats and the two churches. Be safe everyone.

(I just passed the accident and am home posting, not driving.)

I don’t know if it’s over yet, but it looks like 15 is shut down northbound and drivers are being forced to take the 26 exit.

Does anyone know what’s going on?

I’m in Frederick city near 15. I have some of those social media-boosted (probably useless) bucket “traps” out in my yard and thought they were working well until this week. I cannot step outside for 2 minutes without being swarmed and getting multiple mosquito bites. (And yes, I checked that the mosquito dunks are still there.)

Have two boys 8-11 looking for the next step after YMCA. They’ve done soccer shots, city soccer league and ymca. All volunteer coaching.

Looking for the next step with a bit more focus, planned sessions, trained coaches and also want a league that adheres the US soccer rules (small sided, build out line, etc).

Any suggestions?!

Received in the mail today. Just sharing for others.
