Good evening, Victoria! First, a quick update from us.
We’ve been working on the speed and performance side of the Victoria Buzz website after a massive spike in traffic over the past couple of days caused a technical glitch.
That same issue prevented some images from loading in yesterday’s newsletter, but things should now be back up and running smoothly. Thanks for bearing with us!
And for everyone who has been asking, the Buzzle is back up and running, so you can once again test your knowledge with today’s puzzle.
In today’s news, Brentwood Bay actor Daniel Diemer has landed a role in the hit Canadian series Heated Rivalry, Victoria hospitals have reached a $21-million fundraising goal for surgical robots, and several people were arrested following a reported home invasion in Vic West.
Thanks for reading, and have a great Thursday!
