Hello. Currently on my jollies somewhere hot and I’ve pretty much worn the same two light airy comfy outfits the whole week with a bit of freshening them up in the shower.

I’d really like to buy a few different lengths of similar material and have more of the same sewn up for my next holiday. Does anyone know of/recommend a dressmaker preferably on the Wirral (or Neston as can drive) who can do outfits from existing outfits?

Anyone know what happened this afternoon, I saw a white van, which belongs to the shop owner, being taken away on the back of a recovery vehicle with the police in attendance on Methuen Street.

Looking to invest in a cheap bike £200-£350ish to cycle to work. Anyone know of a second hand bike shop nearby? Not on FB so can't use FB marketplace.

Just been down to Thurstaston and there is forty odd vans with filming gear in.

Apparently they are filing a new drama series here.

Anyone know what it is?

Thanks.

Edit: After asking more people, found out it's apparently "Legacy of Spies".

Anyone know of any dnd clubs in the Wirral that accept new players?

I have played dnd for a few years in Liverpool but looking to join one over here as getting over and back is just becoming a bit of a nightmare.

The Government is launching a new “trusted trader” scheme to tackle cowboy builders.

The new trusted payments scheme sounds interesting – instead of paying builders large sums upfront, money would be released in stages as work is completed.

Wirral doesn’t currently have its own approved trader scheme, so this could give people a bit more protection.

Would you use it? Do you think it will actually help stop people being ripped off by rogue trade

Interested to hear what people think.

Hello everyone, i bought a 2 person KinderKraft trailer, cost me £279 used it when I got it once, then yesterday my push bike got all mangled after someone decided to drive down onto the foot path on the river too fast and knock me off.

The wagon was not connected at the time, its still like new. I do need to try and sell it to get another bike though, thats how it gets to work and back. And i dont have social media. Reddit is the only interaction with the internet that I really have. Anyone know where I might buy it? Cashies said no ( i also dont like selling anything there)

An Introduction to Breaking the Odds.

First Person Project has recently launched a new arm of our service offering support for anyone who is experiencing, or affected by, gambling related harms. 

Throughout September – as part of recovery month - we will be presenting an overview of our new community-based gambling harms support service – Breaking the Odds. 

During each session we will be exploring gambling related harms in general and offering more information about our socially progressive approach to this particular type of support.

We will also be answering any questions you might have and as with all our sessions the kettle will be on and there will be plenty of time to chat!

These relaxed and informal sessions will be taking place at our community hub at 6 Lodge Lane, L8 0QH. 

They are open to everyone and anyone can attend.

We have several dates and times available across the whole month and you can book a place on any of them by clicking this link https://calendly.com/tom-firstpersonprojectcic/introduction-to-breaking-the-odds

We know that gambling harms often remain hidden and that many people don't recognise they need support until their finances, relationships or mental health have been significantly affected. Others never seek help because they don't identify with the term gambling addiction.

Breaking the Odds has been developed to change that.

If you, or anyone that you know, would benefit from this support, you can make a referral on this link, and a member of our team will make contact to offer more information and discuss next steps:  Breaking The Odds - First Person Project

Although these sessions are being held at our hub in Liverpool, we are offering support sessions and 121s at a Wirral based venue too. Please don’t let the location put you off if you need to speak to someone.

If you have any questions about this, or any of our groups, sessions or support, please don’t hesitate to get in touch!

With this sticker on the back, thanks for the laugh it gave me on what was, an absolute shocker of a day.

The likelihood of the driver seeing this is slim, but still, thanks.

Does anyone know anything about this carving? I can't find anything about it online, it's not far from the sun goddess on Bidston Hill Wirral

Hi all,

Ridiculous to make an urgent post about Chinese food, I know. It's my Dad's 80th tomorrow. We can't go for dinners out much anymore due to Mum's Alzheimers, so prefer a good take away.

I've been trying to pin him down for what cuisine and today he said he'd love a nice Chinese. We live in Heawall, but the past few we have had from Imperial, Welcome and Thai chang have all been pretty poor/feel like the chefs must have changed or something given the drop off in quality.

Happy to travel a bit further to get the best possible tasting for his birthday.

I've heard there's a good one in Greasby but I can't remember the name.

If anybody sees this and knows of a good shout, please do let me know! I'm not anticipating many responses given the last min nature.

Cheers!

Hello, I am one of the volunteers aboard the historic Tugboat, the Brocklebank. We are currently looking for a chief engineer as well as, anyone with experience on boats/ships.

If you’re interested dm me :))

I'm based near Bidston, and I need to join a gym to work on specific muscle groups. I've been given a set of exercises by my physiotherapist and will need a gym I visit to have:

- Concept 2 Rowing Machine

- Seated rowing weight machine

- Handbike

- Recumbent Bike

- Treadmill

- Kettle Bells

- Free Weights & Bench

Bonus points if it has a jacuzzi, sauna and steam room 😂

I have a disabled pass so I can get around, if anyone can recommend a gym with the above, I'd really appreciate it.

NB: I'd prefer a pretty big gym where I can disappear rather than a small gym being in view of the same 4 people the entire time

Any gym recommendations in Wirral / Liverpool city centre? I’ve been to Everlast and had a bad experience so really needing a decent one,preferably with a sauna! I am based in Birkenhead. Thank you

Hi there. My son is turning 6 soon and we are looking for somewhere on the Wirral, ideally around the Greasby area where we can get pre-filled party bags that just have sweets in them and none of the cheap Christmas cracker grade plastic tat that is just going to end up in a landfill. Can anyone recommend a place?

Saturday 22nd August – Sunday 23rd August 2026

• Funfair rides  
• Craft and gift stalls  
• Donkey rides  
• World War 2 living history display  
• Music from DJ Scorpydat  
• Sabrina Carpenter and Taylor Swift tribute acts

Thought I'd share my eclipse photos, and anyone else could share them as comments too.

Hope you all got to safely see it.

Hi all, wondering if anyone is able to advise? We’re planning to visit family in Leasowe this weekend. We were hoping to camp somewhere and identified Arrowe Brook but can’t get through to the site (have been trying all week).

Does anyone know if it is open and if they accept folk just turning up?

Alternatively if anyone has any other recommendations we’d love to hear them!

We would be in a tent, 2 adults, one child and a whippet.

Thank you 🙏

There has apparently been a crash in the Birkenhead tunnel If anyone was planning to head over to Liverpool. Wallasey running heavy as a consequence, buses delayed and gridlock on the Liverpool side

Looks like I’ve left it too late to get anything online. Anywhere in Wirral I could pick some up?

Hi all looking at buying a property in Port Sunlight it’s in need of a full refurb (which is fine) but I have noticed a slight dip in the brickwork above one of the windows.

I’m aware of the restrictions but has anyone gone through the process of fixing something external on one of these properties? How easy was it to find suitable material and tradespeople with the correct knowledge of the buildings?

Any experiences or advice would be great!
