As the title says. I am set on getting my hands on one during my lunch break tomorrow but I don’t want a mid tier or alright one like a REALLY good one. Which cafes do people recommend?
I sound so old saying this but the rise of antisocial behaviour seems to be getting a lot worse, it’s not even teenagers either it’s preteens that literally look like baby gangsters in their balaclavas and Nike tracksuits. I initially thought it was because of the school Summer holidays but I can’t say it’s died down since.
Currently in Chesterton and there’s these TINY children running around egging cars and people saying “I can’t get arrested again” yelling at each other causing chaos.
There’s a group I’ve seen around Chesterton twice now, one of the times getting arrested and in the centre on TikTok videos with police, the ring leader looks like the stock photo I’ve attached and he always seems to be at the scene of the crime.
Parents of Cambridge, what are you doing?
I’ve noticed lots of tents in the centre recently and a little camp set up, I’m assuming it’s because we’ve had colder weather and rain and hoping it’s not the homeless population increasing in general? :(
I don’t have a lot to give monetarily wise but I have quite a few warmer, winter items I’d like to donate.
Does anyone know the best local charity for this?
I’ve never known anywhere so bad for fruit flies!
In the shops, cafes, my home.
I thought it was my LUSH perfume at first so I stopped wearing it or tried different ones but they’re everywhere.
(Funnily enough I’ve not seen any in LUSH where I go often)
They just have seemed to have taken over Cambridge!
Is there a science to this or am I just attracting them 😭
Hi, I’m super poorly right now and I’m dying for a nice spicy ramen/soup/stew when restaurants are open again tomorrow. Preferably with a homemade feel if that makes sense.
Anyone have a recommendation?
Dear tourists/residents,
I get it is the school holidays/your vacation and Jesus Green is a lovely park but…
anyone
I’m assuming most of the plastic bags I’ve seen holding bread or scraps for the birds haven’t purposefully been dumped in the water and have flown out of a overflowing bin but when it’s windy, it is easily done.
I walk by everyday and it’s so lovely to see the birds and their babies but let’s be a bit more mindful.
What are your favourite FIRST date drink/eating spots or ideas especially if you’ve never met them and they’re coming from outside of Cambridge so you want to impress them a bit.
Somewhere not too noisy but easy to wiggle out of if things go wrong?
Everything smells so intense, especially in this heat.
Cleaned what I thought was the source of the main smells but nope, everything just smells so intense.
I love being a woman.
Hey,
Unfortunately my lil hams cage got infected with mites so I’ve had to throw everything out and rebuy everything including food.
I get paid from my part time job and benefits on the 29th and can pay back full amount via bank transfer or PayPal.
If anyone could help I’d be really grateful.
Thank you.
Does anyone know how to fake a bank statement to look as realistic as possible?
It isn’t for a mortgage or financing or anything along those lines.
I basically have received money for spicy content and don’t want that being questioned to who I’m showing them to so need to remove it.
I also need them to align with another one of my accounts so that the balances all match up.
Any advice?
Hi,
My first time posting here so hope I’ve formatted okay.
My elderly family dog who is 13 has been really wobbly lately and not quite herself but unfortunately I’m flat out broke until payday. I’d prefer to get her seen as soon as possible so things don’t potentially progress and get worse.
I’d be so grateful if someone could help until then as it would ease anxiety a lot.
(Yes I do have insurance but the Vet would need payment upfront and we would have to try and claim after)
Thank you.
I ordered a custom necklace on Etsy and knew it’d take some time but I checked my emails and realised it’s coming from Tel Aviv to the UK.
I’m so disappointed I didn’t check before as the shop owner proudly shows where they are from in their bio, it was just an impulse buy late a night half asleep. I won’t be able to return it either and I’ll feel so gross wearing it.
The shop reviews have some comments like ‘Wearing this bracelet to show support to the strong people of Israel’ too.
I’m sure people are smarter than me but just something to look out for.
Where does the best iced matcha in City Centre? Preferably not a chain, especially ones where they premix the matcha in huge quantities.
I know there’s probably somewhere amazing on Mill Road as that seems to be the answer for everything, will take those too when I’m next there 😂
8 months post surgery and I’m still struggling.
About 2/3 weeks ago now I had a phantom gallbladder attack to the point I had to ring the ambulance as I couldn’t move for a good while, just hunched over in pain. They couldn’t get to me for 3 hours.
It faded after a while, lots of rucking rocking and forth, gritting my teeth etc so I cancelled the ambulance.
I still get the phantom pain of cramping and that horrible sensation down my back but this was a full on attack.
I had no idea this could happen, however I’ve booked a doctors appointment to rule out other issues but the pain feels identical!
The last week I’ve been away on holiday drinking, I’m not a heavy drinker day to day but on holiday I like to. The contraction/cramping pain has been awful. I’ve just thrown up bile like it’s my full time job too.
I’ve never been someone to bloat badly but my stomach has been in shambles with bloating and mg periods feel even more awful now than they did before!
They act like it’s such a simple procedure and said I needed no follow up but it’s feeling very misleading.
SPATIAL** stop it
I’m currently on holiday with my friend and I’m trying to remain calm but I’m fed up of getting bumped into every 2 seconds.
She has ZERO spatial awareness and the paths are thin. I feel like I’m doing gymnastics or temple run to make sure she doesn’t bump into me or other people (it doesn’t help that other people don’t have spatial awareness either). I’m like 99% sure she can’t help it as she walks bow legged and keeps accidentally shaking tables too but OMG.
I FEEL EVIL cause she’s so sweet but I want to scream. I’ve made small jokes about it but yeah going to do nice things out feel like a chore.
So I’m going on holiday Sunday and I’m getting rid of loads of unique, high quality vintage bits for dirt cheap so it can go fast, bit of extra spending money, essentially all £5. We’re talking real silk, leather, some really nice pieces.
People are trying to offer me £1,£2,£3 or begging for pennies off like babes all I’m asking for is £5 so I can at least buy a couple tequila shots or pina colada.
If you’re not in the position to spend £5, maybe £9 after fees and shipping, maybe Vinted isn’t the best thing for you rn.
Not even gonna check messages anymore because it’s putting me in a bad mood and just shipping out the ones that buy with no hassle. Added screenshots of just some of the annoying ones today.
Extra annoying points for the American one because I’m not giving you 50p off an already dirt cheap real silk skirt then waiting 10+ days with international shipping to receive my £4.51 lol.
Rant over LOL.
Hi, I posted in here recently for my mum finding a pigeon (She found a local rescue with space eventually) and now it seems to be my turn.
Opened my flat door this morning, accidentally spooked this poor baby, it flew across the road into another building in full force then slid down into a corner (so a fall quite high up).
I picked it up, bought it back into my flat and put it in the box you see it in until I remembered I had an old hamster cage.
He/she is super light and fluffy and honestly feels like I’m holding my hamster. Was warm and breathing quite fast but now has settled a bit.
It’s Sunday so I’m trying really hard to find somewhere open, but I’ve also been told bird rescues in my area are rapidly dying out.
If it’s the case of having to look after pige for a couple days until I can find someone, what should I be doing?
My mum previously kept a baby alive for weeks with peas (hence them in the picture) recommended by a rescue, thrived and got better until we found a rescue. It may have been older though.
This one seems younger and thinking it needs crop feed? I can Amazon some for delivery tomorrow but I’m not sure what to do for now as I doubt I’ll find it locally.
Any advise?
PS - The bedding is made with natural dyes such as fruit/veg I use it for my hamster.
Long story short I opened my door this morning and accidentally spooked this baby pigeon, flew accross the road and failed to land and ended up scared heavily breathing in a corner. Are there rescues able to help today? Yes I’m googling and calling but if anyone knows that’d be great. Thank you.
I’ve done the walk to Waterbeach, been able to get the train back to Cambridge and there’s been a pub at the end of it.
Does anyone know any other paths which are nice and scenic, quite similar, not too much road traffic and maybe somewhere to eat and drink either on the way or once there with decent transport back?
Thank you.
UPDATE: There’s a pigeon that keeps circling the garden unsure if that’s a parent and thankfully found a rescue to take it if needs be.
My dog found this pigeon on the garden floor and alerted my mum, shortly after pigeon fell on its side. He’s now had water and perked up a bit.
We’ve heard other birds but not seen any pigeon parents, not sure if it’s old enough to be alone?
He’s currently in our guinea pigs run (alone ofc lol) shaded etc.
Annoyingly we had a baby pigeon situation not so long ago and called around rescues in our area and they seem to be overcapacity.
Is there any hope of parents coming back, piegon having a bit of heat exhaustion and getting better later or should we try contact a rescue?
