Anyone know anyone near or in Milton Keynes that sells enoki mushrooma I've been looking for a while and can never find them

What does everyone think of the food places in Crownhill ?

Anyone know where to buy some? I’m happy to drive out to a farm shop or something if need be.

I’m just really missing American mulled cider, and thinking about making my own for the holidays. Cheers!

So I registered for council tax about 6 weeks ago when I moved.

Got an auto generated e-mail and then nothing since then.

Hi, we are trying to book a driving test, but looks like they are fully booked for the next 24 weeks. Is there something we're missing? Is there anyway of getting booked on for a test? Any help is appreciated!!

Are there any recommendations for day trips from Milton Keynes that are accessible by train/bus and is not London. I wanted to visit Cambridge or Oxford but I can't seem to find any bus/train that goes directly to either of these places.

EDIT: Thank you all for the recommendations, really appreciated

I have a normal bike and a E Bike.

Locked and left my normal bike at the station while I went to work in London and came back to all the accessories on my bike STOLEN by some scum bag.

I thought to myself I’m glad I didn’t use my E bike as the whole bike would have likely been taken.

I’ve enquired about the secure diamond rated security for bike parking that you pay a fee for. Would my E bike be safe with this?

Thanks.

And or surrounding area?

Going to work this morning 100% of the cyclists I saw had no lights, and wore no reflective clothing. For some reason they think wearing black will help them get spotted in the dark. This was at 7:00, before sunrise.

You're an idiot if you don't use lights. Please use them, especially this time of year.

My 77 year old mum rang me during the week to say that a £1 coin booklet collection that she had been building for a few years had gone and the only time that someone had been left alone in her bungelow was a mk council contracted workman (while she went to use the toilet at a neighbours). I've had a brief look for it today and can't find it either, so I don't doubt what she is saying.

She's already rang the company and spoken to one of the managers and hopefully the person responsible has had similar complaints in the past.

There was about £150 in the booklet and they also swiped a black and white photo of her brother.

Please make sure you lock up anything of value before you allow anybody into your house!

Hi! I'm taking a short city break to MK this coming week. I'm thrilled to be visiting your wonderful city again. I'm American, but I live in Hungary, and visits to MK are a special treat for me. I really enjoy being in a modern city, and being able to get around hearing and speaking English everywhere is so relaxing.

Anyway, I'd like to do a bit of shopping while I'm visiting, and I thought I would ask here for suggestions about where/what to buy. I'm looking for the following stuff:

• A Raspberry Pi 5. I can easily order this online, but, when possible, I like to buy things in physical stores. Are there any around selling them? Does anyone know if the museum shop at the National Museum of Computing, which I plan to visit, might happen to sell them?
• Fake meat-- specially a fake "roast". The roast in this picture is from the American brand Tofurky, which I understand used to be sold in the UK but no longer is. Can anyone suggest local brands making something similar and where to buy one?
• Black pudding and white pudding. I assume I can just buy this at Sainbury's, Waitrose, etc., but I don't know which brands are good. If there's a local butcher that makes some in-house, that would be even better.
• Dad clothes. I can, of course, just go to Centre:MK and walk around (okay, I plan to do that a bit anyway), but if anyone can mention that places where middle-aged men buy trousers and pants and such, I would appreciate it.

Sorry if it's a lot of questions. I've done a bit of research on the topic myself, but I would very much value the input of locals-- you know your city better than google or I do. Thank you so much!

The whole point of Subway was to see and choose what went into your sandwich. Now presented with this. Thoughts 💭?

Our dishwasher isn’t draining and we need to get it fixed urgently, ideally this week. Does anyone have a service they would recommend?

Last time I went there it was £14 for two people. It is now £36 for the same activity.

What am I not understanding here regarding the massive price jump?

Hi everyone,

I'm a casual badminton player living in central MK. Where do people normally play badminton and how much does it cost you?

I have been playing at Shenley Leisure centre, been trying to register for a membership for a discount when I book a court, but have had no luck. (Can't speak to anyone on the phone, left emails and voicemails and no one got back. Went there in person and someone told us to come back next day to do the registration in person, next day I came back and was told to do it online, and nothing worked online).

Many thanks.

A family of at least three crows seems to have made their home in the shopping building. It was a shock to hear them cawing but it adds character. Does anyone know how long they’ve been living there ?

Finally it snowed. Not much, but it was so pretty to look at.

A 33f friend needs work, but has no experience in anything other than a bit of cleaning, does not drive, no confidence, and English is okayish. Unskilled warehouse work such as packing, conveyer belt sorting, or online grocery picking always seems to be available but I don't believe it is possible to specify what shifts can be worked. Given the time of year restaurants only want experienced staff as it is too busy to train anyone up. I'm looking at supermarkets, but again getting there very early or staying very late might be an issue unless they can walk there. House cleaning is a possibility, but that might only be a small handful of hours per week.

Bus services becoming less frequent and starting later and finishing earlier - might just be the ones I use, but the issue seems more general. MKConnect is unreliable to get somewhere at a specific time. Taxis would be much more than the hourly wage so pointless. Carpooling is a possibility but can't be counted on and definitely not in the beginning.

I'm not sure what to suggest to them. Having access to a motor would make the world of difference.

So I know I've left it a bit late to be asking this but are there any catterys around the MK area that you guys would recommend or that you know have availability?

I live in Wales and all the ones round here are booked up or look shoddy as hell and I wouldn't trust them with my boy.

Just trying to see if there's hope for spending Christmas with family by boarding him close to them rather than over here.

Bringing him with to family isn't an option unfortunately since they have a husky that has a very high prey drive for cats especially and my boy is very skittish so that's not a good combination for anyone involved.

Where can I get one in Milton Keynes please

I know Asda in bletchley does it but where else please.

My msi laptop display died yesterday and I have lots of projects on my hand, any shop recommendations that can fix it quickly? Thanks.

Anyone know anywhere , it's fine even if it is in London. Just want to be part of it and go groove ... If not, we can start one here, may be?

Asking for my wife, she has a shoot on Monday and just lost one of her acrylic nails, are there nail salons open in CMK on Sundays?

Would love to watch it together if a group is out watching it together or all at home?
