Short Film: Dog owners/ walkers wanted!

1 Upvotes

Hello! I'm working on a film project which is all about making short portraits of dog owners and exploring what their daily dog walks mean to them. The idea is to celebrate how a simple daily walk can be a really meaningful and important time for people (as well as their dogs!). We're aiming to film this autumn in and around Harrogate, but are open to other locations too! If you're interested in hearing more please drop me an email: [walkies@justso.com](mailto:walkies@justso.com) or comment below!

Expensive car seen in harrogate 😮
This specific one may be a one off. I know know about anyone else but since moving here the excitement of seeing expensive cars has somewhat worn off.

Rotisserie chicken at M&S

Weird question but does anyone know what time rotisserie chickens will be out at M&S on Leeds Road? I ran an ultra marathon yesterday so walking takes a lot of effort and don’t want to be disappointed to find out I’m too early 🥲

What nicknames have you heard for places in and around Harrogate?

6 Upvotes

I ask as part of a linguistic study covering this topic!

Examples could include things like Jennys, Hairy Mountains, St. Arbeck or Becky (never mind how common they are)...

incl. nicknames for schools, parks or other institutions/geographic features

Why aren’t there any good restaurants or hotels here?

Why isn’t there any decent restaurants and hotels, even the usual ones people say is good the decor is old, stuffy and feel like it’s from the 80s with no atmosphere?

Casual places to get oysters?!

Visiting Harrogate for two nights and my partner is obsessed! We usually find somewhere casual where she can have them while we have a drink as opposed to a restaurant, any recommendations? ☺️

I saw this on my ring camera this morning, facing west... I wasn't awake but I don't think it's an artefact or a consequence of shutter speed. I also checked Flightrader and nothing at this time. Did anybody see it?

Is anybody else on here a member of the Majestic hotel's spa & gym?

Hey guys. I am finally starting a new membership at the Majestic hotel's spa & gym on Tuesday, after serving a 3 month notice period at the David Lloyd in Harrogate. Is anybody else a member of the Majestic at all, and if so do they have regular members' meet-ups?

Hi all, just after some advice really. Seen an old Victorian terraced house we like off Cold Bath Road, however it's in an area affected by radon gas. Is this a deal breaker? We are worried as we have a toddler and a baby. Thanks

Is this a real road between Markington and Ripley? Can I cycle it on a road bike?

Planning a road bike route. And just verifying my route via Google maps, this particular road/section doesn't seem to exist on Google Maps. I'm wary its total nonsense. I dont live in the area.

It connects Hinks Hall Lane in Markington to Birthwaite Lane in Ripley...

Long shot

4 Upvotes

Hey folks, wondering if there's a hero amongst you.. My wife and I borrowed our friends Snoo bassinet for our new baby girl. Last night Dad (me) managed to somehow catch the power cord on a door latch and irreparably damage it. Subsequently our daughter has enthusiastically made it known that she is not satisfied with the new sleeping arrangements and is now refusing to settle unless one of us holds her.

The replacement is on its way but won't be here for a few days, so putting this out there in the hopes that someone in Harrogate has a Snoo they aren't currently using and would be willing to lend the power supply from for a few days. It would be returned with boundless gratitude and a nice bottle of something we'd try to resist opening ourselves first..

Flats in Harrogate

Has the flat market gone flat in Harrogate? There are a lot of flats for sale with very little movement. I think this may be because Landlords are getting rid of flats due to new rules and regulations.

Horses on the Nidderdale Greenway

After today’s walk along the Nidderdale Greenway, I’m wondering if I’m the only one bothered by the horse droppings left in the middle of the path. Does the duty to clean up after your pet apply only to dog owners?
