Small group of us who meet up most Saturdays with the prams. Nothing organised or formal — bit of a walk round the park, coffee after, chance to get out, get your legs moving and talk to other dads

Woolston Park this week, main car park off Somerset Way, 11am. Babies in prams or older kids, doesn’t matter. Just turn up.

Sometimes standard carpet cleaning isn't enough. We now progress into salvage restoration.

This family was blaming the dog for the condition of the carpet. Heard it all before. They may contribute.

I love defending our canine friends when telling the customer, " Well, how come under the sofa is dirty when the dog can't get under there.

And as the morning goes on, it has now materialised that the last time the carpets were cleaned was pre covid.

All that traffic being ingrained into the fibres.

Get your carpets professionally cleaned annually and twice per year if you have pets.

We are based in Warrington, Cheshire

Hi everyone,
I’m looking to track down one OXBERG door in the oak veneer finish (same as in the pic) to complete a project.
If you happen to have one lying around from a disassembled BILLY bookcase or if you’re planning to get rid of yours, I would love to take it off your hands! I’m happy to pay a fair price and can arrange for a collection .
Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I am an undergraduate student at SWPS University conducting a BA research project on how adults currently living in England and Wales describe their views on same-sex marriage and any changes in those views over the past decade.

I am sharing it here to include residents of Warrington in the study.

Eligibility:

• aged 18 or over

• currently living in England or Wales

The questionnaire takes approximately 5–7 minutes.

The survey does not ask for your name or email address and is configured not to retain your IP address or location data. Participation is voluntary and unpaid. Some questions concern personal or potentially sensitive views, and “Prefer not to answer” options are available.

Responses across the full range of opinions — supportive, neutral and opposed — are equally valuable. Please consider taking part regardless of your own view.

Thank you for considering taking part.

Hi! I’m new to running and saw an advert on facebook about this event on the 20th of September. I just wanted to ask if this event is more competitive or do they have any time limit? Thank you

Edit: Also, another one..is there any running clubs that I could join or participate? I saw some in strava but there’s a specific pace they wanted for the runners to join and I’m not at that level yet 😅

Where do the gays and girlypops hang in warrington??

I ask as part of a linguistic study covering this topic!
Examples could include things like Stocking Lumps, Penny/The Keth or Wally Rez (never mind how common they are)...

moved here recently – anyone else in the block smoke 🍃? 🫣

Few weeks in now, decent group going. Any dad with a baby in the pram (or older) welcome.

Walton Hall & Gardens, main car park entrance, Saturday 11am. cafe on site for a brew after. Parking’s about £4 at weekends. Got a WhatsApp group keeping it going week to week — comment and I’ll send the link.

Hi everyone,
Bit of an unusual request, but my driving test is in a couple of days and I’m looking for someone who might be willing to supervise me for a bit of practice tonight or tomorrow evening.
I have my own manual Citroën C1 and learner insurance. Unfortunately, I don’t have any family or friends nearby who can sit with me, so I’m hoping someone in the local area might be able to help.
I’m not looking for driving lesson , just someone who is legally able to supervise a learner driver (21+ and held a full UK licence for at least 3 years) to sit in the passenger seat while I practise for an hour or two.
I know it’s a big ask, but I’d be incredibly grateful if anyone could help. Happy to meet in a public place first if that makes you more comfortable.
Thanks so much!

Has anyone noticed it smelling like smoke all day today in Warrington?

Is there a cause

[Inspired by a recent visit to Warrington General Hospital]

Has anyone else been hit with ridiculous parking charges at an NHS hospital just because an appointment ran late or it took ages to find a space? Private parking companies are profiteering off people who are already under immense stress, with hospitals in England bringing in over £254 million in a single year from parking alone. I’ve found a petition calling on the government to regulate these companies and make public hospital parking free or capped for patients and visitors. If you want to support the cause, you can sign it here:

Hey, I'm 32F, lived around Warrington for most of my life but I don't really have any friends left in the area. I'm wanting to get back into the gym after neglecting it for a few months but I feel like I'd be more motivated to go if I was going somewhere friendly, maybe find a workout buddy or do some classes with people who actually chat to each other. I'm currently at JD and the atmosphere there just makes me want to stick my headphones on and not make eye contact with anyone 😅

Just wondering if anyone can recommend a gym that has a more community feel? Maybe something different to a standard gym? I prefer lifting weights over high-intensity/cardio stuff so maybe a gym focused more around functional fitness or powerlifting could be cool to try? I don't really know, I just want to be more active, stay motivated and meet more people...open to suggestions!

Looking for a good joiner/carpenter in Warrington area for a few small jobs (including replacing a kitchen worktop).

Does anybody have any recommendations, Thanks in advance.

Does anyone do any cooking lessons within around an hour's drive for my young adult who refuses to cook because they say they don't know how? They don't like learning from us 😂 thank you

Hi everyone!

I'm looking to get a few (for now, hopefully more later) T-shirts printed with my custom design, with about 2 weeks worth of time before they're needed.

I know there are all sorts of online companies that can do this, but I'd really like to go with someone nearby. Both so I can support someone local and independent for its own sake, but so I can hopefully go down there to have a look at what they've made, and talk to the owner/staff in person.

If you know of businesses offering this, please let me know! Thanks in advance!

Came home Sunday night to a massive wet patch in the spare bedroom. The valve on the old radiator had been dripping for god knows how many hours and the whole corner is totally soaked through and smells like old pond water. Pulled up the worst section but the underlay underneath is basically black mush now, so the whole lot has to go.

The room is roughly 4 by 3.5 meters. Trying to find somewhere to get a replacement sorted quickly before the damp smell takes over the landing. Checked a few budget options online this morning like ScS and that flooring place near the town centre, plus a mate suggested checking out Urmston Carpets for their roll ends since they do clearance stuff.

If I buy the piece myself from a warehouse, is it easy enough to find an independent fitter around here who can do a quick cash job on a weekday? Really don't want to wait three weeks for a standard store-arranged fitting slot.

Where is everyone watching the game tonight?
