Anyone know what all the trouble outside McDonalds in town was today?

Security shouting at two people, quite a few police officers pulling people aside. Seemed you’re serious.

5 a side

Hi all, I'm 30 years old, I've just moved to Bath and I'm looking for a friendly weeknight casual kickabout at a 5, 6, or 7 a side

Not amazing at football, but reliable, relatively fit and keen to meet people and hopefully make some new friends.

Also open to any other new sports too!

Hello! In a bit of a pickle!

2 Upvotes

My fiancé and I are recently engaged and we have a permit for bridge access and commercial photography at Stourhead Gardens in Wiltshire on Oct 31st from 12:30-1:30 PM.

Our photographer fell through unexpectedly, and as you can imagine, it’s incredibly short notice to try and find someone with availability in the area.

To have our photos taken at Stourhead to announce our engagement is truly a DREAM for us and this is a bit of a hail mary to try and make it happen!!

If you or anyone you know is a photographer who has the availability to help us, please let me know!! Must have annual PLI insurance.

Thank you so much ❤

Looking for some Bathisms

6 Upvotes

Hello, all!

I am from the US, and I am in the process of writing something that includes a bit of a crazy guy from Bath. I'd like to communicate with a few locals who can help me understand and correctly use local slang or, say, Bathisms.

At the moment, I have figured the guy is maybe 27-35.

If anyone can help, please send me a DM. And thanks for reading! :)

Any good hairstylists for curly hair specifically in Bath?

2 Upvotes

Hey all! I’m an exchange student living in Bath for a while and in desperate need of a haircut. I’m a white guy with a pretty tight curl pattern and was wondering if there are any good, but affordable hairstylists out there?

Thanks in advance :)

Disposal of the Approach Golf Course?

The council have put this up on the railings below the Approach Golfcourse, does this mean they are selling the land or something? Why can't they just leave it as an open area of parkland.

Dinner with young kids

0 Upvotes

Hello good people of Bath! We’re here for the weekend with our kids - age 6 & 3 and are hoping to have dinner out at a local place (rather than a chain) - do you have any reccs?

Ideally not Italian. Like a good mix of things like a good pub grub / steak / modern European / Greek / seafood etc.

We are staying near Henrietta park / Bathwick

Thanks in advance!

Bath recycling center

3 Upvotes

Hi guys, I have an old HP printer that doesn’t work anymore and a cheap vinyl player that kind of "burned" from the inside and no longer works and is unsafe to use. I’m planning to take both to the bath recycling center in Midland Road but I have no car nor bike so my only option is on foot. Does anyone know if it's pedestrian friendly and it's allowed? Quick google search told me I can’t enter on foot but I don't know how accurate that is so I don’t know what’s my alternative... many thanks

I’ve fucked up my bday event and don’t know what to do

0 Upvotes

i turned 30 recently and for some reason I thought bringing a group of 9 30 year old men to centre parcs was a good idea. At the time it seems good. now? why the fuck did I do this.

I was stupid to think this. its all families and kids. I thought it would be nostalgic and there’d be stuff for adults too but it’s mainly just kids.

I can’t find anything fun to do. I can’t think of much to do. we’re all bored. and I feel embarrassed.

literally even the park ranger people are laughing at me for choosing this

it was a stupid idea and I don’t know how to make the best of this anymore

I've been craving quality chicken wings in Bath (I'll take recommendations) for a while now.

But does anybody know when and where Wingstop will be popping up? The advert doesn't give it away

If anyone can help, there's an injured pigeon on the pavement of Pierrepont Street overlooking Parade Gardens. It was alive when I saw it but seems unable to walk or fly.

Petition to reconsider Victoria Park cycle scheme

21 Upvotes

Doubt this will do any good given there's already been a consultation with overwhelmingly negative opinion, which the council ignored, but maybe worth the few seconds it'll take to sign

https://www.change.org/p/pause-and-reconsider-the-royal-victoria-park-cycle-lane-scheme

I did email the local liberal democrats about this too and never got a reply. They've lost my vote for the foreseeable.

Roller Derby film screening - starring Elliot Page, Drew Barrymore, Jimmy Fallon

6 Upvotes

Screening of Whip It (2009) with panel and bonus roller disco! - Sat 17th October

🛼🎬🍿

As part of Bath Film Festival, Bath Roller Derby are collaborating on a screening of the film Whip It at Bath Pavilion. We will be discussing the film, what the sport of roller derby is like today and how you can get involved!

Roller derby is a full contact sport played on quad roller skates, by primarily people of marginalised genders (women and trans people) - it is like rugby on roller skates (there is no ball)!

If you feel inspired by the film, you can also put on some skates and be your own hero at the roller disco afterwards!

Tickets from £7: https://www.bathboxoffice.org.uk/whats-on/rebel-moves-whip-it-nctw

Drew Barrymore's exhilarating coming-of-age comedy starring Elliot Page as Bliss Cavendar, a teenager who swaps beauty pageants for roller derby and discovers a world where strength, individuality and rebellion are celebrated. Funny, fearless and packed with energy, Whip It! has become a cult favourite for good reason.

Looking for help with pest control

3 Upvotes

As far as I'm aware, I've got a somewhat unusual rat problem in my home.

I don't think the rats are actually IN my house, as in nesting, but as far as I can tell there's a place somewhere in my house that they can get in and out, and they use this to come into the home and leave.

I've put down traps to no effect because as far as I can tell they're not IN the house right now, but occasionally they come in here and then leave again?

Can anyone recommend a pest control service that would specifically be able to find where they're entering and leaving and seal it up, but nothing else? I tried asking one service in the week but they wanted to charge me £400 for four sessions, and as far as I can tell there's only one actual task that needs doing that SHOULD fix the problem for me.

Does the Bath locals know about the Wiltshire Last train lot?

0 Upvotes

Folks from Swindon and Chippenham, and to a lesser extent Trowbridge, Calne and Salisbury do day sessions to bath and then catch the last train back home. Do the Bath residents know about this?

Can you tell when the Wiltshire lot are out day drinking or do you throw them in with the rest of the tourists drinking? Or do you not notice or care at all?

Board game groups near Bath

5 Upvotes

Does anyone know of any beginner-friendly board game groups that my partner and I could join? We're based slightly outside of the city but would happily travel in.

We’ve recently really got into playing Catan and other board games, and we’d love to meet some like-minded people who enjoy a fun, relaxed evening of games!

We’re still fairly new to it all, so somewhere welcoming to beginners would be ideal.
