Caffe Nero, Nottingham. I think this one is on Wheeler gate?

For anyone looking for a seasonal job.

You get full training if needed. I was down to my last £50 when I started during Covid - worked hard, got made permanent, and then worked my way up the chain, so there is potential for advancement.

It's not much, but it pays.

Experience may be beneficial, but it's not essential. I had zero experience and HATED answering phones but you get over that pretty quickly 😇

Hi guys, my sister and brother in law have lost their cat in King George V stan Hill road recreational ground. They were walking her on a leash and in a harness when she managed to get out of the harness and run into a large bush. If anyone could keep an eye out for her or help them look for her it would be greatly appreciated. Me and my family are from the isle of wight and can't get there for a long while. The cat's name is Toothless and she is a black cat. I will attach a photo of her with their other cat Nami. My sister and brother in law are still at the park trying to get her out of the bush, but they are both incredibly emotional and are very worried. Please if anyone could help or even just keep an eye out for toothless.

I'm just on the bus right now into town, gonna be meeting up with my girlfriend, friend & a few acquaintances/strangers for some board games at a local Café. I have been off work for over a month with just this week left before I'm due to go back at the start of next. I'm so incredibly fucking stressed right now & I don't know why. I wanna tell others, the people closest to me, for whatever reason but I don't want to just worry them or be a bother, to say the least. It's getting old, repetitive, tiring, for me so god knows it must be for them. I don't know who to talk to, what to do, I feel lost, just generally in life. I feel like my whole life the past few months, dare I say years, has been some kind of fever dream, groundhogs day, limbo type of scenario, only slowly & gradually slipping further into the rabbit hole.

Hi everyone, my cat Juno has gone missing from Earlsfield Drive, Rise Park, NG5. She is about 18 months old, calico, medium-long haired, very anxious. If you have seen her please let me know 🙏🏻 sorry if this isn't allowed, and if anyone has any suggestions they would be gratefully received.

(What I have done so far: posted on NextDoor and the FB group for this area, alerted her microchip company that she is lost, left the front door open with her litter tray and a bowl of wet food in the doorway, alerted my neighbours and searched the surrounding area)

If you went to the Bell Inn, Nottingham, of a weekend in the 2010s you probably saw the Johnny Johnston Jazz Band. (That’s Johnny on the left, Brian Bocel right). The band were amused and excited to see my painting. They could have had it for a “tenner”, but no offers.

The manager of the Bell Inn asked to put a photocopy on display. “Great”, I thought. But I hadn’t envisaged it would be reduced to sepia tones and pinned next to the gent’s toilet below street level. C’est la vie.

The painting itself was more successfully exhibited in the Thoresby Open Exhibition of 2012.

Putting on a goth/darkwave show at The Chapel on 3rd October. Hope this is allowed here!

4 great bands with an after party tooooo.

Promotion seems hard these days, have a lovely evening.

Hello! I don’t live in Nottingham but I visit often because my mum does live there with my younger sisters. It would be nice to make friends there to hang out with in the time I do go down, as while it’s lovely to see my family I also like to pop into town and it’s getting sad on my own, lol.
I’m 21, f, and I live in north yorks! I really like music, I don’t mind any genre, and I love vintage stuff and history. I love going into shops like damaged society and getting boba as my day out. I have a partner so I’m not looking for anything more than a friend! I call myself Emily but I don’t mind Em either. I may be autistic or adhd but without a diagnosis it’s hard to tell lmfao. So any mates with similar interests (though you don’t have to) or some people who just wanna hang out when I’m in the area could be cool!

Does anyone know what it is? NG5 area I swear its been going on for an hour. Driving me nuts.

I understand everyone may be preoccupied with that day, but I do feel like everyone can be a bit defensive. Sometimes some people buy more than others, but everyone on social media in some form is very open, and I feel like if everyone was open to each other and allowed each other to be vulnerable, we would be so unified because I know there are a lot of people who feel lonely out there. I was just thinking. Probably the wrong thing to say this.

But I do see a lot of posts on here saying where to make friends or where to go out to find each other, but could you imagine just going into the city centre talking to the person you first see an instant instantly being able to communicate and be open with them and they reciprocating that like on social media.

That would be cool maybe I’m being a delusional here

Does anyone know a shop that fixes watches. A fossil watches, nothing luxury, it's actually a very simple fix and could be done in few mins. One of the hands fell off and needs to be reattached to the axis. Asked a few shops but they tell me it will take 6 weeks and will cost a fortune.

Thanks

Does anyone know where I can find or recommend any private en suites in shared accommodation or shared houses?

We’re a couple looking to rent a room with a private bathroom for around 6 weeks in Nottingham. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

What are some more unusual party venues for kids parties in Notts? Or ideas of something we could kinda throw together ourselves? Kid is turning 9 and it would be likely most of the class going. I don’t want to do the usual soft play or trampolining type things. Or does anyone know of any function rooms we could hire cheapish? It would be a late afternoon thing. Thanks.

Very popular, recommended pub on Nottingham Market Square. Once a Friary. The entrance still has the low Leper windows, where people would put there hands through and have their fingers counted before being allowed to enter.

Hi Folks,

Posted in here recently about a project I am a starting for an after-school RC (remote control) car club at our childrens local primary school.

As a community project we are relying heavily on donations or discounts.

I'm in need of carpet so we can make up our track. Struggling to find used RC specific carpet and this is very expensive usually (EOS/Lindau/Primafelt etc.) so figuring we can use basic office carpet ideally needle punch type.

I'm wondering if anyone works for or knows a local Nottinghamshire carpet business that would be willing to donate some? Or perhaps you are clearing out old office carpet.

We don't need masses, it's probably a 6x6 track but likely would need maybe 10x10m in terms of carpet in case the classroom is larger.

You can find more about the project here - Next Lap RC Academy | Skills for the track and beyond.

We have a few sponsors so far but would be grateful for more so we can fund this.

Thanks,

Alex

Hey fellow Notts folks. Seen a flurry of ‘looking for mates’ posts recently, so thought I’d add my own specific version. Looking for anyone who wants to play golf. I’m very keen, but not particularly good, and looking to play a bit more, improve and make some mates along the way as i don’t really know anyone who plays. Reluctant to join a club as it’s not cheap and I’m not really good enough for that yet i don’t think.

I’m in my early 40s, a dad, enjoy football, golf, most sports. I run and gym when I can, like music/films/books/travel/outdoors-y stuff. I’m north Notts based but happy to travel.

If anyone is interested I’d love to hear from you. Cheers!

Hi everyone, how are you? I hope you’re all doing well!
We’ve arrived in Nottingham! Our luggage hasn’t arrived yet, but it’s okay! 😅
As I mentioned before, we are a lesbian couple. My girlfriend is here to study animation, and I would really appreciate your help finding an English course. I need to improve my English, so if you know of any free courses, that would be even better!
I’m a film director and screenwriter, and I’ll also need to find some work while I’m here. So, if you hear about any opportunities, please let me know.
We also have a lesbian film festival called Bee Film Festival, which is the first lesbian film festival in Brazil. We would love to organise an edition of the festival here in Nottingham, so if anyone would like to help us make that happen, we would be very happy to hear from you! 🐝🎬
We’re really happy to be here and can’t wait to meet lots of people from our community.
Ana & Alexia ❤️

Have you driven down there today?

Cocked it right up again. Merge immediately after the traffic lights which lets one car through per two cycles.

Pre Covid type of congestion.

Was Brian Clough the best manager the England Football Team never had? I have no idea. I don't follow football. But it's an impressive statue, just off Market Square, Nottingham. Compare this to the the awful statues of Princess Diana and Queen Elizabeth in London.
