Town stinks 😷…

Not sure if it’s the heat, but town literally smells like a urinal today. Looks like most of it could do with a good power wash, get all the sick stains off the floor etc 🫠

Parking

0 Upvotes

Hi guys,
I’m soon to be moving to Nottingham and was wondering if anyone knows any cheap car parks nearish the city centre? I’ve found a few but they’re all quite expensive. I’m looking for a long stay car park for when my family come to visit. I also don’t mind parking a bit further away and getting a bus/ walking back in.

Thanks!!

Anyone have information on the new place that's opened in West Bridgford? It's called Kona and opened where sexy mama loves spaghetti was. Really I just want confirmation it's new owners and not the dirty owner of SMLS trying a new venture.

Solo birthday weekend in Nottingham - what shouldn't I miss?

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

M, 38 - I'm thinking of visiting Nottingham for my birthday for a couple of nights (2nd-4th August) and it'll be my first time in the city. I'll be on my own, so I'm looking for recommendations from locals.

A bit about what I enjoy:

Comic book, gaming, anime and generally "nerdy" shops.

Interesting/Science museums (less interested in law/history unless it's something really unique).

Friendly pubs, bars or clubs (Friendly since I'll be on my own)

Nice cafés, independent shops and places that are good to just wander around. Hidden gems that I might miss.

I've already got a few ideas but I'd love to hear what else anyone would recommend.

Thanks in advance!

So me and some others will be in Nottingham in November and will be there for bonfire night. We've taken a quick look and it doesn't look as though there are any particular events on the night for it. Anyone know of anything that I've missed or is there just no large firework displays?

Recommendations for places to remote work in the City Center

6 Upvotes

I'm meeting a friend on Friday and we plan to co-work for 4-5 hours (we both work remotely), can anyone recommend anywhere suitable?

I've heard of people co-working from Wetherspoons elsewhere but not sure if there's any decent WiFi/mobile data in any of them!

Where's best to donate a chromebook to someone who actually needs it?

8 Upvotes

I have a perfectly good working chromebook that I no longer need or want. I was going to sell it on Vinted but decided to just donate it instead as they only seem to go for about £30-£50 and I don't have a camera to take pictures of it for the listing and i'd be happy for it to go to someone who actually needs it.

I considered just dropping it off at a charity shop so the profits would benefit a charity but then the chromebook itself could be bought by a student or someone with expendable cash and I'd really prefer it go to a family that has nothing where it would change their circumstances a little or give a poor child a resource to study with or something along those lines.

Anyone have any suggestions?

How busy will Hockley be on Pride Saturday?

24 Upvotes

Update: we’ve decided to reschedule. But I hope all of you that are going to Pride have a fabulous time!

I’ve planned a lunch with friends in Hockley on Saturday (table booked for 12pm) and was planning on going for coffee somewhere beforehand and dessert somewhere else afterwards. I now realise that it’s Pride 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️, so I’m wondering if it’s going to be too busy to do that?

I know from friends who go to Pride in other cities that often ppl stay in the bars rather than going to the organised event. Is Nottingham the same?

I’m more than happy to join in the fun, but not if it’s going to be absolutely mobbed!

TIA

Nottingham Chinese chip shops?

5 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

My sister is going to Nottingham to do nerdy Warhammer shit (and historical figures I guess?). She wants to check out a Chinese chip shop and get some curry chips. We're both very interested in regional variations in Chinese cuisine. Do you have a favorite place? What is your go-to English Chinese dish?

Thank you!

Do you work for Student Loans Company? I dropped my Msc during covid due to domestic violence, the uni and the doctors gave me a note that student finance asked for to reconsider a second loan, but they actually just stopped responding to the read. Continued...

0 Upvotes

my only assumption was, (and I'm likely wrong) that they thought it wasn't a legitimate reason I could back up when they said I needed to provide proof, so when the uni of notts wrote a length letter evidencing police involvement, (thanks to UON staff) and my doctor backed it up too (I was in a hospital unit) they just stopped replying, I chased it 3 times and then just gave up due to discouragement.

It's a few years later and my lifes in a good place, can you help?
