Hi all

We're thinking of buying a house in the David Wilson Homes Saxon fields development. It's quite close to the old thanington estate and I was wondering if anyone had any advice as to what the area was like as we're not from around here!

TIA!

UPDATE: A group of staff are now filing a group claim against the owner and taking him to court starting this Monday.

None of the staff here get paid on time nor paid the correct amount. Most of us go weeks without any pay in which the management here ignore us. Certain individuals are owed over a £1000 for the past 3 weeks for 92 hours of unpaid work. Furthermore, management have recently threatened this individual by refusing to pay them for 8 months which is not just completely and utterly despicable, but illegal. I'd also like to highlight that all tips paid on card are not given to any staff here which is illegal under the Employment (allocation of tips) Act.

Hi, does anyone know of any free parking near premier inn Canterbury? Thanks

Hi, I'm looking to move to Canterbury soon. Are there any good places apart from Spareroom to find house shares or flatmates?

Hi, good people of Canterbury. What is the perception of Simon Langton Grammar School locally? I am planning to visit the school in the open evening next week. I would love to hear from you all about the school.

Hello! I'm heading off to Uni of Kent for a semester exchange in a few months, and it would be appreciated if any of you could answer some questions I had:

1. What's living expenses like? I know UK is generally more expensive in general, but I couldn't really find a proper gauge of prices for things like food, assuming I don't go to high end restaurants etc
2. What's a good/reliable mobile network?
3. What's a normal outfit for a female student during Jan-June (I have always lived in an all year summer place of average 30+ degrees) and what's an affordable store for winterwear? Since I intend to purchase most of my clothes here
4. How safe is Canterbury in general? In my country I typically feel safe enough to walk alone in the middle of the night, and I can always leave my laptop in a cafe while I take a pee break, but I know that is definitely not the case here I assume.
5. Any tips or recommendations in general on places to check out?

Thank you!

My parents are moving to Ersham Rd, in Canterbury, near the Canterbury East train line. As my dad is a light sleeper they are very anxious about how noisy it will be living there. If you have ever lived there, or near the train tracks on the Canterbury East line, could you tell me about your experience? Could you feel the vibrations from the train? What about noise? Thanks!

Hey all, my partner and I are coming on holiday for Christmas from New Zealand. I was looking for a place to have a proper Christmas lunch like a roast on the 25th. I’m having a hard time finding a decent place to book for the meal so any help is appreciated, walking distance is even better. We are staying in the centre of Canterbury near the Canterbury Roman museum :) Thanks in advance

This year I've got unlucky and now have some dickhead students living next door to me, banging and talking loudly until 5am...ready for my alarm to go off at 6am.

NOTE: Not all students are bad. But my batch this year are.

So, if anyone wants to rant about their bellend student neighbours, feel free to post here.

Anyone know any good gaming laptop repair places in cants? My laptops been overheating and I want to get it fixed.

Hi all, I want to take my wife to Canterbury for the day in a few months. She went to uni in Canterbury and loves it there. We have visited a few times and had a town centre tour and visited her favourite tea rooms and restaurants. Now I want to book a weekend there for her birthday but I'm stumped on what to book as an experience. Do you have a favourite experience in or around the centre? Something a bit different perhaps. Looking to come around Christmas time. Thanks in advance!

Hi, just wondering if anyone knows of a good doggy sitter in Canterbury, it would be for around Christmas time. Or a company that would offer this service.

Thanks in advance

Hi all, We have a group and play at Aylesham Leisure Centre weekly from 8-9pm. We are looking for a couple of extra regular players - varying standard and mix of ages (varying from 25-55) so all welcome really.

Pretty much the title, looking for a pub quiz going on this friday or sunday, preferably friday. Can't find much info online, was wondering about kent campus quizzes too. Cheers

I know some pubs only do them monthly, like the maidens head, so i was wondering if they were up this week.

Hi, I am in Canterbury for a while and will like to watch a sunday league game nearby while I’m here. Tried researching online but I don’t have much information about it. Could anyone shed some light on schedules or games?

Just wondering whether anyone does this or a simular commute and how long it takes/how often it's delayed - google says 1.15 -2 hours but that seems unrealistic the amount of people trying to get into London for 9

A few days ago she didn't look like that.

Maybe the rain has worked some strange magic. 🎩 ✨️ 🤔

Anyway, people can't help but stand still in awe of her.

The park and ride buses does a few stops to and from the city centre. Does anyone know if you can pay to hop on the bus at these locations.

E.g I'm not parking my car but being dropped off outside I town. I want to hop on a park and ride bus to the city centre and back.

Moving to flat by mid-October and wondering if there is such a thing as broadband and mobile bundles from providers.
