As title suggests, would like a cheaper way to get to London everyday. I work in Central London Mon-Fri. I can get to my place of work easily from King's Cross, the commute itself isn't awful (though not great) but the cost is unsustainable. Does anyone know of a cheaper way, for example a station to drive to and park at that is cheap enough to make the fuel worth it? Or anyone wanna car pool to this mythical station with me haha!

Edit: forgot to mention commute includes a ten minute bike ride to and from station from South Cambridge

Hello everyone!

Recently hit it off with this girl and I’m wondering where the best spots are for a first date! I’m not from the UK and I’m very new to the area so any suggestions at all would be very welcome

I bought a jumper at Bicester but they forgot to take the security tag out. Does anyone know if any shops in Cambridge use this type and can remove it for me!?

Looking to have a sitdown meal with the family and wondered if anyone has experience with both and could comment on any preference? Noticed LP has a lot more feedback but believe that is due to KSM being newer

Looking for a place where I could send some files to 3D print.

I’ve seen some schemes online that gives residents free period products but I’m not sure where to actually find them.

The sanitary products sold at supermarkets have become really expensive for me and the quality is poor. If anyone knows where I can access freely available and easily accessible sanitary products, that would be really helpful.

I'm thinking of meeting new people, possibly even a regular pub evening or coffee situation after work - is there something like this already that's casual and easy to join, or am I the change I want to see in the world?

So this year has sucked a total load of donkey and I want to do something nice and festive that also connects with nature without causing any damage. Are there any good spots to find pine cones/needles, berries, holly bushes, anything like that? Serious answers only - I'm talking a year of people dying on me left, right and centre, financial worries, health problems, rejection etc - I just want to do something nice that I can feel proud of once I'm done!

A volunteer-run, established digital publication - is looking for reviewers between the age of 20-40 to attend shows, and write reviews following the show. No experience writing reviews is required as we're looking to provide accessible reflections to others within this age demographic.  Good English is a must but we're not writing essays - reviews are usually 400-600 words and we do provide a star rating.  The main T & C is that reviews must be submitted to the editor for review within 36 hrs - we aim to publish all reviews within 48hrs to provide theatres/productions with ample time to use our reviews in promotion. All shows would be comped - usually 1 ticket, sometimes we're lucky and you can have a second for a friend.  Reliability is a must but we understand sometimes things happen and all we ask is communication with the Editor in these instances. If you are interested please drop me a message. 

Are there any apps like The Fork to find a good deal for restaurants? Thanks!

31M Haven't played in a while but wouldn't say I'm awful, Available weekends/evenings.

24 Hours in Police Custody: Tonight's episode explores how fraud case helped take down Biggleswade drug dealers 😱

I’m moving away and want to donate a few bits of equipment (pretty basic) for electronics repairs to an active repair cafe or hacker space that is helping the community.

Any hints?

Don't. I live with someone working on the site building these houses, and it's shocking.

There is so much shoddy workmanship all over the site, and wrong materials used for fire safety and insulation. It's bad, and it haunts us both to think about the poor sods who will end up living in them. Especially as these are not just inconvenient issues for the homeowners, but potentially life threatening. The companies involved are aware, and they made it clear they are not interested in hearing about it. This is sadly also nothing new or special in this sector.

I've reported it, alongside evidence to the relevant people, so I can only hope now that someone will catch it before someone is living in them.

Looking for lessons that aren’t goin to break the bank

Hello,

I will be going to Drumsheds (near Tottenham) on Fri 13th Dec. The event finishes at 3am, anyone know of a cheaper way to make up some of the distance at that time or is it no chance and just going to be taxi back? Thanks!

Please can somebody tell me the name of the pub that used to be on the site of this restaurant.

Its driving me mad.

Heading into city centre for drinks one weekend soon and would love to know if any places with a jukebox! Preferably a digital/touchscreen one!

Where would be the best place to develop film in Cambridge? I have an old roll of film from 2007 taken with a fairly old camera. Thanks 😊

Laptop is a surface go with some stickers on the top, including some studio ghibli stuff, coffee companies, and one that says "manifest that shit"

I’m looking for a fishmonger in Cambridge that keeps and sells the bones and heads after filleting fish. Only tried Waitrose so far, they don’t.
