Canada Goose

Hi,

I've come up from London for a conference and my friend Tarquin has spilt some of your Kirkstalle Ale on his Gilet last night while we were enjoying KPMG corporate hospitality.

We are flying back to Heathrow this afternoon so don't have time to get it dry cleaned but obviously don't want to go the day sticking out like a sore thumb without the proper attire. Is there anywhere in Leeds (ideally near the dock) we could pick up some Canada Goose, want to avoid brands like North Face unless it's getting dire.

Thanks in advance

Safe reputable vets who will spay a cat in heat? Recommendations please.

I know the general rule is to wait a few weeks after a heat cycle before spaying a cat but I also read that some vets will spay a cat during a heat cycle as there's a variety of opinions about the best way to do it.

I have been trying to wait until a few weeks after the cycle because I rang around local vets and they all said that's their way of doing things, however, it is proving impossible.

My cat is honestly never out of heat for more than a few days at a time, she's been like this for months and I have no opportunity to have her spayed because she's never out of heat for long enough. By the time I've waited the required couple of weeks she's back in heat again. She is never out of heat for more than a few days / week max.

It's becoming a problem because she is so loud when in heat and I worry about the neighbors, not to mention that it's just putting strain on the household in general with the noise and the spraying. It has been like this since we adopted her.

I'm looking for recommendations please. Can anyone recommend a reputable vet that will spay a cat while she is in heat? I'm willing to travel. Thanks

Is this permanent? Did we run out of money for the station project?

Just feels weird. We've been waiting nearly two years to repave that stretch of road, with it being half done all that time. Unless it's some kind of temporary covering? Anyone have any idea?

Gardening club for a young teen

My little 13 brother will be living in Leeds during the month of June and I've been making a list of ideas of activities he can take part in while here. I want him to spend as much time outdoors and have taken off time from work to spend with him.

I was wondering if anyone knows of any gardening clubs that he could join. I've looked online and saw a few clubs that are either for adults, aren't taking on any new members or are attached to schools so won't benefit him (he goes to school abroad)

Looking for Germany supporters in Leeds for the World Cup

Hey everyone. I’m looking for fellow Germany fans in Leeds to watch the World Cup matches together.

Quick context: I’m Indian, been living in Leeds for a while, and somehow ended up supporting Germany. I know, I know. Finding other Germany fans in England is basically a quest at this point.

If you support Germany for whatever reason, or just want someone to suffer with during the matches, get in touch. Would be great to find a group or even just one or two people to watch the games with.

Drop a comment or message me. Cheers.

LEAD GUITARIST WANTED!

We’re a Leeds-based indie/alternative band looking for a new lead guitarist.

We’ve recently released a new EP and have built a really solid foundation online. Right now, our focus is entirely on keeping that momentum going. We’re stepping straight into a writing and recording phase to get new material ready for release and for shows. Logistics-wise, we’ve got it sorted: we have our own dedicated rehearsal space, we demo everything ourselves, and we work closely with great producers to bring the songs to life.

We write music about everyday life and the honest, relatable things people actually experience. We’re ambitious and we take the music seriously, but we also genuinely just want to have fun. Writing and rehearsing shouldn’t feel like a chore; we want someone who wants to have a laugh and enjoy the whole process of building the next phase with us.

For fans of:

Deaf Havana / Twin Atlantic / The Xcerts / The Hunna / The Band CAMINO and loads more!

Who we're looking for:

We want someone who wants to take the reins lead-guitar wise - bringing big melodies, atmosphere, and a great understanding of dynamics. With a bulk of songs already main stays in our live set, we are looking for a songwriter who genuinely loves the creative process and wants to collaborate on new music from scratch, as sticking their own solid take on our existing material.

We need someone who is reliable, committed, and doing it for the right reasons. Gigging experience is definitely a bonus, but it’s absolutely not a dealbreaker if playing live is something you are excited for. Leeds or Yorkshire-based is preferred.

If you're on our wavelength and want to create something exciting, drop us a message. We'll probably chew your ear off and want to know lots about you, like:

A quick video or audio clip of your playing/writing

Your main influences

Any previous projects (don’t worry if you haven't been in a band before)

Please get in touch and I'll get back to you if this sounds like a good fit!

What area of Leeds could I live in on 32k per year ?

What area of Leeds could I live on 32k (before tax)

Provided I can keep a job...application for council houses could take years the council said...and from my experience when a government service says its gonna take x amount of time, it usually takes 2x or 3x that amount of time.

so renting a room or small living space seems to be the quicker option and I am in an uncomfortable housing situation and desperate to move out.

Ideally living on my own, I have severe OCD for which i take medication. So I honestly think I'd struggle with a flat share, although if there are separate bathrooms I could maybe probably do it.

What area of Leeds could I live in. I would rather it have a good transport link too the city center as I do not drive. Thanks.

Driving with the conference

Hi visitors to Leeds, please can you stop walking in the middle of the road when walking to the landlord conference.

I've had to do more than one emergency stop because you guys can't follow pedestrian traffic lights. Which is exactly more than the usual I have to do with the Uber eats bikes buzzing around!

Probably doesn't help I live next to the docks either TBF.

Disposing of dumped nitrous oxide bottles

We had these nitrous oxide canisters dumped in our household green recycling bin a couple of weeks ago. It was right before it was due to be picked up, meaning the binmen (understandably) left it. We put in a request to the council to come pick them up but no luck.

Can they be taken to a recycling centre? We tried looking online but it wasn't clear. We didn't realise this was a thing, but I've now seen a few on the side of the road on the way to work.

Got arrested for my mental health... wtaf?!?

So on Friday I was basically arrested/detained (photo taken by mate, my witness, of me wearing handcuffs, hurt really bad). I was detained under section 136 of the Mental Health Act 😕

My mum and dad called 999 on me and the police literally came, put me in handcuffs, whilst I was going through a panic attack, and took me away. After going through the process, I got let out on Sunday with a referral to a team to "look after me".

In this pic the cuffs are on my front, but about 10 mins later I was wearing them on the back after I went full panic mode and the officers changed my cuffs round and fucking tightened them like fuck.

Is this allowed under the law? Can the police do that to me when I’m going through a vulnerable time. They spent a rlly long time putting me through the restraint process which only amplified my mental health crisis and struggling.
