Hello - I would love to chat to parents in Gloucestershire to see how you find out about the activities and things to do within Gloucestershire for you and your young ones?
Please let me know below the way you find out and if you would be open to chatting more.
Uni student 20F and my partner is full time employed 24M. Cheltenham area, looking at 1 bed apartments.
I've put in about 5 or 6 applications now and they've all been rejected, I've been looking for a month. It's demoralising and stressful, my partner can't come to viewings so it's just me organising and going to them.
We can't afford anywhere more than £875pcm.
Is it recommended to offer above asking price? Should I say about a gaurantor and my partner's extensive savings? I'm on mailing lists but even that isn't working.
We keep getting beaten by single applicants.
Any advice is more than welcome 🥲
Hey there is there any couch surfing website for Gloucester. I need a place to stay I can pay but have limited budget so where to get a temporary one near branwood Gloucester.
Thnks in advance.
Is there anywhere in Gloucestershire that take in children's toys which then pass these onto struggling families for free this Christmas?. I don't want to put them for free on Facebook or to some company that'll profit from them.
I m an international student at uni of Gloucestershire . I got the permanent job offer from sainsbury and the shifts are like from 4 am so need to shift in Gloucester asap. Also if temporary wht are the cheap hotels ,dormitory hostels near branwood or in Gloucester.
The past couple years I’ve had to spend some time in Gloucester/ Gloucestershire. Although from south glos I consider myself more from Bristol rather than Gloucester. ( as any sane person would do )
An example is that I worked for a while in Stroud and one winter there was tons of snow , when I started my commute there was a light dusting but pretty much nothing and gradually the closer I got to Stroud the heavier the settled snow seemed to be.
Also , I work ( now in Bristol ) alongside someone from the cam area , everyone seems to think he’s crazy when he says how bad the weather is at his home compared to down here in Bristol , it never seems to be like one area has a bit more or less rain than the other , it seems to always be a vast difference.
Can anyone offer me some insights to this or is it possible that like my colleague , I too am crazy…
Just wanna know cuz on Gloucestershire live it said that Dobbies Hardwicke is permanently closing.
I want to get my nails done this week and so I don't have the time to book appointments. Can you guys suggest any salons in Gloucester that do walk ins and are affordable prices.
I ask as there are sirens going off up north for the floods.
We’re new to Gloucestershire and we’re wondering if there are any firework displays for New Years at midnight?
Sometimes different venues/ restaurants do their own little display, does anyone know any places that do it/ seen any previously in the last couple of years?
We’d love to celebrate NYE at home but then drive out somewhere to see anyone doing fireworks at midnight.
We’re based in Gloucester, but any recommendations around Gloucestershire would be appreciated.
I am moving to the GL3 area in Innsworth and it seems that there is very limited broadband options. Does anyone have any recommendations for broadband as the only options seem to be gigaclear which I have never heard of and have quite a few bad reviews and v4 which again I have never heard of. Thanks in advance!
54 gay male. Looking for friends in Stroud area. Maybe Dursley too.
how do i leave
Ladies, I’m looking for a budget friendly nail salon/ person to do builder gel nail extensions for me. I have previously had experiences of doing my nails and getting them over buffed after which my real nails have become brittle and damaged. I have now let them grow (4 months) but also stress bite them.
Thank you 💕
As the title says. Was supposed to be going but plans changed so giving the tickets away for free. Let me know if you want them.
Hello, looking for some honest opinions, my wife and I found a nice property just outside Dursley, (Cam Green Road) it is properly outside of the town however Dursley would certainly be our go too for nursery, shopping etc. What are peoples opinions of Dursley? Right now we are renting in Thornbury.
In April of this year I went on a ghost tour with my boyfriend and my best friend, during the night we were shown a lot of places where there had been ghost sightings but didnt experience anything until towards the end of the night.
We were taken to a room that was left in ruin, I can't remember why but you will see what I mean in the images I will add
On the wall there were pictures of the children that had once stayed there and a nanny who looked like she was in her 20s
The layout was a large square room with two rooms attatched. The first room (Where my phone was) was opposite the entrance and was more similar to a cupboard, I reached around and pointed the camera right and took 2 pictures in rapid succession
Before this I had taken a picture of the second room, to the right of the entrance, which now acts as proof that the room was empty and therefore the picture cannot have been staged
The wall between these 2 rooms was damaged and this is where i saw it
first shot of the whole between room 1 & 2
Does anyone have a recommendation for a good driving instructor. Someone that does intensive courses with a test. I've seen a few advertised online but I'd appreciate if anyone has had a positive experience. Around the tewksbury area thanks.
Anywhere in Gloucester/Cheltenham/Hereford/surrounding that specialises in the “awkward sibling” photoshoot trend please? Or know a photographer who does the classic family portraits? Something in the style of the lovely example photo
I just wanna know because Google Maps Apparently says that is it now "Open 24 Hours" When previously, It said the Burger King Was permanently shut So yeah if you near the Burger King right now, Then take a picture of it and send it in this posts comment section or say if it is or not and I will believe you
Hi all, I'm looking to move out of my parents desperately now. it hasn't been a great place to live for a while, as soon as I turned 18 this year I have been looking multiple times a day on rightmove zoopla openrent onthemarket and even Gumtree and fb marketplace. I can't seem to find anywhere pet friendly with a Budget under 1000pm in Gloucester or Cheltenham vacinity. whenever I've tried to book a viewing I'm not able to go on the exact day it was listed and so someone immediately takes it. Well I am writing here in case there's any landlords or anyone that has connections.. I'm kind of out of options, I want to start my life (house share is out of the question) I even have the money to pay a whole year upfront and more and tax return forms to prove it, just finding the place seems impossible
Anyone here fluent in JavaScript, specifically node.js and REACT?
A software company is looking for someone with experience in the above languages, with the possibility of an initial 2 year contract + share options.
An interest in aviation would be a bonus but not essential.
