What you can and cannot post


We know swearing is commonplace these days, and seems to be largely acceptable on social media. But the mods want everyone to feel that they can come here and not be offended or made to feel uncomfortable. Therefore all instances of swearing, derogatory remarks and bigotry are removed by the sub's bot.

Non-commercial notices such as charity, church, scouts and so on are welcome.

Commercial advertising such as shops and other businesses will be removed unless you have clearance from the mods.

We're tired of seeing surveys, research calls and other stuff, so those posts will be deleted.

Students doing school and college projects should message the mods for clearance before posting otherwise your post may well disappear to /dev/null.

Things to do in HD?

Hi, 23M here.

Recently moved to HD and at this point I'm fed up living the work-home-sleep life cycle. I'd like to meet ppl my age and do stuff outside of home/work, however I don't know anyone in the area and people at work are far older than me and have different interests.

Mostly ppl my age go out and get pissed, but that ain't really my thing. I drink alcohol only on special occasions, mby once or twice a year.

What would be a good place to meet like minded individuals and make friends? Rn I just kinda sit indoors and doomscroll/watch Netflix/play computer games and it's boring the hell out of me.

Any advice/tips of what to do with my days off would be appreciated

Strange high pitch tone.

Does anyone else in Huddersfield sometimes hear a high pitch noise outside? It lasts about 4 in 5 seconds and it rises in pitch.

Does anyone know what it is?

Areas to live

I currently live just up the hill from the train station and it’s not great. Here for uni, the rent is so high for what it is. They are trying to charge an extra £100 a month for the car park (which is full of rats dead and alive 😆). Looking to put a deposit down for a flat for July / August / September. Any recommendations? I have a car so it doesn’t have to be close to the town centre! Thanks!

Debating moving to Meltham/Slaithwaite, any areas to avoid?

Meltham is more likely due to value for money and availability. We essentially need to be commutable to Manchester and are looking for a place to start our family.

No offense to anyone who lives in these areas, I've moved around to know to just ask this bluntly.

Every area has parts or streets to avoid, so curious if there are any here?

Craving Baklava

I went to Turkey in the summer and had some of the most amazing baklava over there. I found some in Sainsbury's for £5 for a little box and it was OK, but not great.

Does any one know where I can get my Baklava fix? I know that there's different types; Indian, Middle Eastern etc but I'm not fussed with the region, I just want some authentic sweet pastry nutty goodness....

*edit - spelling

Looking for Small area of land to rent

Hi I’m a male 46 and a working professional in the engineering industry

I am thinking about Buying a Caravan to Live in for a few months ……basically to cut down on Costs of rent I’m currently paying for an apartment.

My problem is that I don’t have anywhere that I could park it and live in it that is off the public highway. So I’m looking for anyone who may have a small parcel of land that they would be willing to rent to me where I could do this?

Thinking maybe in the corner of a field or any area of private land.

Caravan would be only a 4 berth type so not to big …..so only small area required

I would be willing to pay up to £200 a month in rent for a small /reasonably quiet/private and safe area where I could park and set up a caravan that I can live in.

I work every weekday from early morning to late afternoon…..so would only be in the caravan weekday evenings/nights to rest and sleep and weekends I also have my own small car.

So if anyone has anything that may be suitable or knows who might have …..please drop me a message to discuss things

Many thanks
