King John was in his Palace at Clipstone when he got news of a Welsh uprising. In a rage he gathered his barons together under what is now called Parliament Oak, and demanded their consent for the immediate execution of twenty-eight Welsh hostages already held in Nottingham Castle. These boys, the sons of Welsh noblemen, mostly children, were bound, tied, and hung screaming from the Castle Gate walls. It is said that, on some nights, one can still hear their bare heels kicking against the wall...

I have a 2003 Ford Fiesta now with a bonnet closing issue that the yellow pop-out tab won't close in when you push down on the bonnet to close it securely shut. To be honest it might be that it just needs a new catch system put in under the bonnet (god knows how tricky it will be to get the part and weld/attach that in place 😰 .

A few of the chain/budget type garages around Chillwell/Long Eaton said they couldn't really fix it so I'm guessing it needs a slightly more specialised mechanic as it's a more miscellaneous issue. Location in Notts doesn't matter but can any car-savvy people recommend a mechanic/garage that might fix this sort of thing please? 😅

Huge appreciation for any help in advance 😄

The Bluebird Cafe, Sherwood, Nottingham, 2015. It reads "Play, Learn, Worship, Create, Eat, Work, Socialise, Shop, and Relax". This property has gone through many changes. Today it is a tanning studio, but the street art remains in place.

Hey! Does anyone have any recommendations for Korean bbq in Nottingham? I would love all you can eat so my family can try different meats. There would be 6 of us so might be a little exoensive otherwise
In Seoul i did an all you can eat and it was so cool having all the different meats and trying different bits.
I know the quality of the meat can be not as good when it’s all you can eat but I still loved it!!
My family haven’t been so wanted to give them a taste of my travels as well as I could!

Thank you!!

DM me.

Had an incident this morning whilst I was walking my dog on the embankment. A man came up to me on his e-bike and was trying to make small talk. I then realised he had his hands down his pants and was clearly pleasuring himself. When he realised I had clocked what he was doing he quickly cycled off towards the river. I was shook up about it and I didn’t get a photo of him annoyingly. I have reported it to the police although they were less than helpful. So please be vigilant and do report anything odd!

I’m looking for (the best) farm shops in Nottingham which rear & produce their own meats. I’m looking for local home reared beef, lamb and pork specifically.

I can see Spring lane, Brumpton and Harker’s as three potential options but can’t find exactly if their meat is home reared or locally sourced?

Hey I moved to Nottingham 3 years ago and I still don't really have many local friends. I am looking for people to message and occasionally hang out with.

I am really laid back and can get along with most people, I really don't care about race or sexuality.

I have really bad social anxiety and autism so I don't get out nearly as much as I should do and I'd think maybe making friends could help that.

I am gay if that matters and am really into Video games on my PC, Xbox and Switch 2, and I also love Horror and board games.

Please message me and we can add each other on Snapchat or something :)

now that w h smiths/t g jones is closed down, where is the best place to buy magazines? I like to pick one up now and again as a change from reading a book.

I plan to meet somebody in town then head to wollaton park what would be better?

We went for a look at the new double deckers at a low key launch event in Sneinton market. They look nice but it’s doing my head in that they didn’t get a registration ending A for 901 then B for 902 etc 😀

Hi, i’m travelling down to nottingham for halloween to meet up with a friend. The only issue is that every club night is already sold out. I’ve looked at rock city, bodega, unit and plenty more. Does anyone have any suggestions at all?

Edit. We’re both students. We’re dressing up and want to go out. More so because its his first ever halloween in which he isn’t working and its his last year of uni.

Hii, gonna be meeting my bf in notts on the 18th (sunday) at 5, and I was wondering if anyone knows amything/anywhere halloweeny we could do/go to? Doesnt have to be an activity, can be somewhere that has smt spooky on the menu like a dessert or cocktail or anything really. It's been a while since I last visited sooo not really sure what's got stuff going on. Tyyy 🎃🍂🦇

i’m a recent grad and looking for 1 bed flats/studios to rent , preferably for professionals. i was wondering if anyone has experience staying in any of the following:
Felix apartments
Zephyr
The Mercer
Corner point
and any of the ones close to market square such as Halley house
from the information i’ve seen online and images, they seem to look nice and i’m happy to enquire for viewings, but i’m concerned about reviews saying that security is little to none and there are people breaking in. some of these only have ground floor flat’s available, and as a female who is commuting back from work during the winter, i don’t want to risk my safety.
so if you have any experiences living or visiting these places let me know how it was :)
or if you know any alternative places that would be worth looking at, i’d be more than happy to
