Moved recently

Hello:) just moved to Leicester recently, and I’m looking for some pals to hangout with as it’s been pretty lonely! I’m 21 and a female, I love to create art, play video games and attend live music as much as a I can! If anyone would be interested in potentially meeting up shoot me a message :D

Thoughts on oadby as somewhere to live with young kids?

Looking at moving to oadby with my family. Budget of £300k for 3 bed semi.

Would you recommend? If so what particular parts of oadby? Used to live there but 20 years ago now.

Thank you

What actually makes you trust a tradesperson enough to hire them?

I work with a few local roofers on their marketing, and I find that in Leicester the people that want quotes don't tend to go with them whereas their conversion rate in the surrounding areas is much higher.

I'd just genuinely like to understand it from your side as a homeowner or landlord, if you've needed a roofer in the last couple of years:

  • How did you find them?
  • What made you pick one over the others, or put the job off completely?
  • What's the thing that made you trust (or not trust) a roofer?
  • What's the worst thing a roofer or builder has done that put you off?
  • When you did find someone good, what made you trust them?
  • Does price matter most, or is it turning up and being straight with you?

Not selling anything and won't be posting any links. I'm just trying to get the roofers I work with to do better. Cheers.

Judo in Leicester

Hi I'm I member at Southfields judo club. We have plenty of kids but would be cool to have a pull round with some adults. For anyone interested in popping down or starting new.

We sometimes have Bjj people join.

Here's some pro's

Not in town , big free car park at rolleston school

£4 Matt fee , no subscriptions required . 1.5 hour session

Tuesday from 6:30pm - 8pm

Instruction first, then randoori (sparring)

I'm making this post not as business promotion , we struggling for adults tbh . And would be good to build the club back up.

Drop a reply if you want to come down 👇🏻

If your experienced there are some strong players and coaches that will give you a pull round

If your new your very welcome.
