Is anyone willing to sell me their Hackney half bib? I missed registration but want to run tomorrow

This is not anymore and actually it's been gradually less and less possible, to rent a flat in London on your own. The rent, bills or council tax increase every year and doesn't match your salary increase if you ever have one. I see more and more share flats either for rent or for buying and landlords or sellers take advantage of this opportunity to make money or get richer if they own a few properties. This is madness and no prime minister is ready to change that !!!

Im looking to go for a nice cycle ride on the weekend as the weather is getting better.

Has anyones been on any good rides whether that be personal/santander/lime?

Im looking for something scenic(doesnt havent to be) - the obvious Hyde Park springs to mind but i want to try somewhere else!

Yo guys, didn't manage to see it the first time - has anyone had any luck seeing it tonight?

Two days ago (16/05) I left Gatwick at around 16:20, on a train towards King's Cross (and perhaps Cambridge... not sure) that was some minutes late.
I sat in First class and put the bag on the shelf, but left it there when I went down at King's Cross. It has a tweed-like pattern, with red and green decorations, a green shoulder belt and brown handles.

On top of being of EXTREME personal value, it contains some microSD cards. These are fundamental for my work – which is now quite on the line. I have no idea how this could have happened and my three hours of sleep might have played a role. What can I do?

Anyone know of a pub in london which is guaranteed to have the two hurling matches on Sunday. Preferably South London but willing to travel.

I'm in a guitar-bass-drums band and I can't find any Reddit communities to post in to recruit another member...

I may have to start one...but in the meantime, are there any online or other communities that are at all active for this sort of thing?

✌️

I would love to visit any nice London golf course for a game, but I have no idea where to look for a golf pals ! Is there an app to search for a golf buddy to play a game ?

does anyone else ever have to wait a while for a bus, and the stop gets packed, but when the bus comes at last, all these people who just got here push it? like, uhm, i thought it was polite that the first person who gets to the stop gets to get on the bus first... even worse if the bus is packed, youve waited a while, and it gets full up and stops taking people before you get on. this pisses me off so much but i want to see if anyone else has this and any solutions. thanks!

It was all over the carriage. What is this “HTB” business about? Not the first time seeing it.

Hi, I'm Mia from Talk London, City Hall's online community.

Did you know that the Mayor of London and Transport for London are currently trialling off-peak fares on Fridays?

We're running a survey to gather Londoners' feedback on the trial. Whether you're travelling today or not, we'd really like to hear from you.

Join Talk London to take the survey, read what other Londoners have to say, and help shape TfL's future policies:

My landlord was a criminal who ran off with people's deposits and used some of his flats for drug dealing.

R.I.P Sleepright properties.

Unrelated to the other Camden posts today but yeah, was there the other day and that's exactly how it feels, crowded, shops selling throwaway tat, overpriced food at the market, full of tourists. Vape shops, candy shops and some spots selling goth/alt clothes almost like souvenirs.

The exact feeling I got was like walking through magic Kingdom at Disney world, just corporate, mass produced items with some theming. I know its been like this for a few years now but yeah, thats the impression I got!

Edit: Few people saying this mainly applies to Camden Town and I agree, so yes Camden town*.

I just saw a Superloop bus and it got me thinking.

I walked past the guy who always sings Bon Jovi at the top of his lungs the other day, and visited the Devonshire and spotted a “Nat has herpes” on a piece of art they had in the back room.

What other London Easter eggs are there?

Smart people of London... Anyone know where I can sample some? :) Or better, any places I can sit and enjoy it with cake?

Clearly we could go online, but I’m keen to try-before-we-buy. Where does everyone go? We don’t have a car, live in SW15, and want to get something which will last a decade at least.

Why in the hell can't we call them clockwise or counter clockwise, like, you know, a Circle?

Or at least some sort of West/East or North/South, just something!

I honestly get it wrong 50% of the time. Attempted to get to Wood Lane from Paddington...I logically thought we'll Victoria is south west ISH, right? So surely it's that one.

no. it's the one that goes via Kings Cross instead, but taking it the other way because this is also the one part of the circle line that isn't part of the circle.

Let's also skip over that both these circle lines are in completely different parts of Paddington station, with barely any distinction or sineage as to which one goes where until you're at the barrier/platform level.

So im a 26 year old early stage trans woman with a science degree, 6 years of retail experience and 2 and a half years of working biological and chemical laboratories and I can't seem to get a job as a barista, or even a store assistant job... Any advice?

I moved here to be with my girlfriend and I was waiting for a DBS check but it came back after 2+ months (totally clean) with my old name on it (recently got my passport updated) and I got turned away because it didn't match my current passport. I had a bigger role lined up for next month but it's been pushed back to August because a medical report from the NHS was too slow so they put me into the next intake. My gf can cover rent for a bit but it's not sustainable and frankly getting HRT through private prescriptions is very expensive (but the Guardian headline will almost certainly get DIY HRT banned and the NHS still has a 15 year waiting list, and no way am I ever going back to testosterone that stuff is pure poison to me).

Does anyone have any advice or connections? Any roles or jobs in companies or places you might expect to be at least accepting of someone like me? I'm running thin and I don't want to borrow my partners money or apply for unemployment or anything like that. I just want to work and get on with life with my beloved.

I can only seem to find information about the Lost Property bar...

My problem is: I caught the train from the West Country to Southampton the other day. Unfortunately, when I changed at Salisbury, I left my keys on the train - so I went one way, my keys carried on to Waterloo. I've tried the SouthWestern Trains Lost Property system, which is cr*p, and I can get no news from them.

But then a couple of days ago, I spotted that the Tile on my keyring had started showing that my keys are still at Waterloo (sometimes it takes a while for these things to triangulate). So I know they're there, but I can't ask SouthWestern to send them to me until they've identified that they have them. Obviously no phone number you can call, just their awful online system. I thought if there was a hatch you could walk up to or whatever I could just ask a friend to go and ask for them (I don't live in London any more, so I'm not being a lazy sod by not looking or checking this out myself).

Hey folks, I’ve got a mate who’s turning 30 this year and he’s always wanted to play Dungeons and Dragons in person. I was hoping I could make it a bit more special with an interesting location to rent for the day, does anyone have any suggestions!

I was thinking some sort of medieval set up, big hearth, weapons mounted on the walls that kind of thing. But honestly open to anything, I haven’t decided the campaign theme yet so could even go down a different route like sci-fi and so on.

Ideally we’d have the room to ourselves + bonus points if there’s a bar on site!

Any suggestions in London zone 1? Preferably near Regents Park and Camden
