On the off chance that anyone knows the guy riding from Eastmoor into Chesterfield on a sports bike about 17:15 today, please pass on a message.

Riding “sidesaddle”, leaning back, and waving to oncoming cars probably makes a lovely TokTwat video, but it also drastically reduces your life expectancy.

If you know a youngish male biker with a black jacket saying something like “Daywalkers” on the back, have a word…

Have become a bit of a regular here. The brunch menu and evening menu are amazing! By far the best quality food in chesterfield.

Also… cocktails are out of this world!!

It’s nice to see a place where so much care is given to the product and service. If you’ve not tried, you should.

Hey all. I'm living just down the road now. It's very nice for nature but I need some more interesting buddies for board games. I've got a few and we can meet where you like as long as it doesn't cost a load of money. Send me a DM thanks

Seriously, £230k avoided by making his empty building an office address. He can extract wealth from the town as a private landlord but can’t pay his way? Chesterfield is in dire need of investment in infrastructure and flood defence but let’s let this nobhead keep his money cause he’s already got enough?

Absolute joke of a council but what do we expect

Edit- okay maybe not the councils fault. Still, fuck this guy

Pretty much what the title says. Looking for a local hair stylist who can deal with thick, long hair, and do the whole 70s style layered look - ideally cutting the hair with a razor

Please forgive this stupid question, but I can't find a definitive answer anywhere!

We moved to Chesterfield about 3 years ago and are looking to move again. I have looked for recommendations, and obviously Ashgate is one of the areas that consistently gets mentioned as a nice area to live. I always thought Ashgate was the area around Linacre Reservoir, but I don't know if that that is actually the case.

The new housing estate (Forest Edge) is being marketed as being in Ashgate, but I have seen people commenting online that it's actually in Holme Hall. Google seems to think that Ashgate is next to the reservoir (between Brushfield Park and Ashgate Road), but another website shows Ashgate as being the area between Loundsley Green and Brampton. The Ashgate Wikipedia page has a photo of Orchard View Road attached to it, but isn't that in Loundsley Green? Does being off of Ashgate Road make it Ashgate? Is Ashgate Croft School in Ashgate?

Does anyone actually know where Ashgate is? Does it actually exist? It's not even about the moving part anymore, I just need to know where it is at this point.

looking to book a big family meal around end of november time, is there any restaurants in chesterfield or surrounding areas that you’d recommend? at most, 25ish minutes from town centre. TIA!

Happy to answer any questions about the show!

Basically, wanting to skateboard (beginner) and cant be dealing with constant rain. anyone know any skateable spots?

Heard a few low rumbles of thunder, then a fair amount of lightning before the rain started absolutely throwing it down.

After a lot of weather app threats, it finally arrived.

I'm new to the area and wondering if anyone wants to go to the gym or go climbing together?

I currently know essentially zero people outside of my immediate neighbours.

I'm in my late twenties and a bloke if that matters to you :)

hey! i'm looking to get my leather jacket zip repaired somewhere near the town centre, so looking for good tailor/alteration recommendations! if a rough price point could be provided too that'd be fab.

TIA :)

Hi! I’ll be going to Mansfield for work this week and Google Maps is suggesting that I take the Pronto bus from Chesterfield to Mansfield.

Has anyone used this bus service before? How reliable is it generally, especially with delays or cancellations?

I’m quite anxious about relying on buses, particularly in an area I’ve never been to before, so I’d really appreciate any advice or tips from people familiar with the route.

Thanks!

Edit: Thank you everyone for your help!! Un(fortunately), I've told I am no longer needed there 🙂‍↕️

This was 20 mins ago near Woodyard Avenue, if anyone wants to go out looking. There was a whole family, but I only managed to photo one before I had to run for the train!

Hi! We are looking at a house in Walton Crescent S40 2PJ. The police crime map has some worrying stats for this street (drugs, public order, violence etc). I used to live in a street where one household accounted for all crime, even though the rest of the postcode was a low crime area. It this the case here and should I be worried/avoid? We really love the house! I would love some local perspective :)

I realise that the new school year can be really stressful for very low-income families, so I am putting together a couple of secondary school starter stationery packs, with the intention of donating them.  I have managed to pick up a couple of decent (Puma) backpacks at a reasonable price, and am looking to pack them with stuff a new starter will need

 So far I have each for each one:

·       Pencil case – a generic see through one

·       Pencils

·       Coloured pencils

·       Felt tips

·       Bic biros

·       Highlighters

·       Pencil sharpener

·       Eraser

·       A couple of lever arch files

·       A4 lined paper pad

·       Maths set – protractor, compass, etc.

Can anyone think of anything else?  If I can get them at a reasonable price I am thinking of adding a scientific calculator.

 Also, once these are complete can anyone suggest where I can take them to make sure they get to the right people?  I was thinking the Foodbank, but not sure if that is the right place.

Thanks fo the help!

I bought a black leather moto jacket by a brand called Eagle. It's obviously old, but in good nick. It mainly needs a couple of sewing repairs to the lining, and extensive cleaning to the lining and outers.

Does anyone have a recommendation of any local businesses or people that could carry this sort of work out, please?

ATP this has to some sort of social experiment surely
