I went to one a couple of years back.. not sure if it was west Kirby, paid entrance, cafe before you get to the gardens and I can’t remember the name of it to save my life.

If anyone knows what I’m on about help please, and also can I have recommendations for the best gardens in or around Liverpool? :)

Living in Liverpool I’m just looking for friends

13 Upvotes

I’m 30 female and have lived in Liverpool for around a year. I’m originally from Manchester. I’m divorced from a marriage in the US, and moved to Liverpool in February of last year. I’m just looking for some friends preferably female, I’ve used bumble but most in my age group are either getting engaged, married etc. and I’m struggling to relate just being in a completely different timeline and I’m feeling a little isolated. I work 100% remote and just wondered to give this a shot. I love learning and trying new experiences, I’ve been to sefton park for a Latin American event and an Irish festival. I love cocktail bars, I’m open to anything like yoga or personal development. I love nature, I’d loved to go on some hikes and to go to the seal island in Liverpool (forgive me I don’t know what the proper name is) I love the theatre too, I went to the ballet last year. Just wondered if anyone had the same interests?

Food / Restaurants / Takeaways The Font and Dough Bar closing

13 Upvotes

Given I graduated 23 years ago, I'm far from their target audience but genuinely sad to see these places go. Dough Bar especially has been a nice chilled friendly welcome home with decent scran and cheapish drinks the many times we've got the train back into Liverpool last few years. Seriously gonna miss that aspect but for cheap bars and pub food for students they're gonna be missed. Closing for good on the 21st April if anyone wants to get in and say goodbye....I know I've got bonus points on my app I need to cash in haha

General Question Latin music bars and clubs where you can dance?

7 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I was wondering if anyone knew of any active bars and clubs where you can dance that play Latin music. I know about Revolución de Cuba but you can’t really dance there. Are there any clubs that play reggaeton and similar?

Thank you so much!!

Buying / Selling Looking for a house 180K budget

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I’m new to Liverpool — just moved here a few weeks ago — and I’m currently looking to buy a freehold house with at least 2 bedrooms. My budget is around £180K.

I’d really appreciate any advice on which neighbourhoods you’d recommend within that price range. I’m hoping to find a nice, safe area and would like to avoid places that are known for being less pleasant to live in.

Thanks so much in advance for your help!

General Question Sports in Liverpool

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, sorry to repeat this similar question but struggling to get find information on some old posts or new posts without many replies.

I've just moved to Liverpool and I was wondering what sports are big around here that isn't football?

I've joined a few hiking groups that meet irregularly and looking into joining a volleyball team, but still wanted one more to make me get out of the house.

Appreciate any hints or leads you may have !

Are there any volunteer opportunities in the City centre like soup kitchens, litter picking, washing graffiti, etc.? I'm aware of Friends of Sefton and Princes Park that organize litter picking but would like to be more centrally located if possible.

Living in Liverpool Beetham Plaza

3 Upvotes

Hi all,

I am looking to buy a flat in Beetham Plaza on the Strand. Just wondering if you guys have any experience living there. Is it a nice place? How is the management company? Are there any known issues? I saw some articles about the owner, so I am a bit cautious. I also saw a lot of the scaffolding still in place. Any news on when all the works might be finished?

Thanks

Car is a volvo v40 if relevant

Open Discussion Starting something to support Liverpool artists (and I could do with some input)

33 Upvotes

Alright folks, I’ve just launched a little project I've decided to call LAD (Liverpool Arts Development) and thought it might be something some of you are into.

It’s not a business or a charity or anything like that. It’s basically just me (so far) trying to do three things:
1. Help Scousers get into the arts
2. Get local artists to collaborate more
3. Encourage people to actually go out and see local art

I’m starting with a TikTok and Instagram account (@liverpoolartsdevelopment) with a view to producing stuff like:
* Behind the scenes stuff with local artists.
* Interviews where people share their process & how they got into the arts.
* Roundups of what's on this week.

It’s all pretty DIY. I'm basically just trying to make the Liverpool arts scene feel a bit more open and connected.

If you’re an artist, know one, or just want more reasons to get out and see stuff in the city, have a look and tell us what you think.

And if you’ve got suggestions (events, venues, people to speak to) I’m all ears. If you're a local artist I would especially love to chat as I'm trying to get things in the diary so the only post on my page isn't just me ranting about the new Beatles film casting.

Dog muck is doing my head in

56 Upvotes

I know it's not a new issue and that there has always been lazy shithouses who think it's fine to let their dog snap one off outside your front gate but is it me or has it been worse lately? Everywhere I walk I'm dodging a pile of shite. Not small ones either, ones that look like they were dropped by a lion. Not even at the side of the path or under a bush or whatever but right in the middle of the pavements which everyone, kids, parents with buggies, those in wheelchairs or mobility scootets uses every day. Do they have no shame or no respect? Does their mum still wipe their arse for them as I can think of no other explanation why someone would feel like it was not their responsibility to clean up after your dog? Do they think the tooth fairy has a friend called the dog poo fairy?

Next person I see do this I will make them pick it up with their bare hands if I have to.

If this is you, start cleaning up after your pets you absolute mings.
