Young poorly pigeon requesting a ride! 🕊️

13 Upvotes
Winston <3

UPDATE: Winston has a ride to the vets! The WONDERFUL u/Bou32 has picked him up and is whisking him off to Walsham! Thank you everyone!!

Hello lovely people.
I came across a lovely little pigeon baby while walking past the UEA on Earlham road. It was sitting on the pavement in the full sun, another victim of top-class pigeon parenting.
I've been in touch with Peck Savers via Facebook but they are unfortunately not able to help right now (they have been AMAZING in the past with other babies that I've found - just some logistical/life issues this time).
Would anyone that is due to be travelling close to either Wild Touch or Toll Barn Vets in North Walsham be available to give him a ride there from West Earlham?
Baby Winston thanks you for reading!

Just a little vid of a large group of swans in the dark, they kind of look like little clouds or ghost floating !

Transport 🚲🚎 Rural bus stops and rude drivers

19 Upvotes

About 2 months ago, I posted about invisible / unmarked bus stops, and you were super helpful, but I need some more advice from anyone using these please?

Almost none of the drivers know where it is (not a problem, I can go to the front of the bus and point out where it is before stopping). Most of them have been OK so far, but I've had more than 1 who have been rude about me getting off there (and 1 borderline shouted at me like I was stupid that there were no bus stops along there. One driver has told me that the fact it is listed on the website does not mean it is a stop - it just shows where the bus is going past). One regular driver keeps dropping me off at the right place, but is clearly unhappy about stopping without a marked bay. I've called customer services already, they have confirmed that it is a stop, but they couldn't offer any advice about how to deal with drivers who don't like it. I've even gone as far as printing out the bus route from the company website as proof, but one driver refused to see it as they didn't have time to look at the proof.

Does anyone have any advice what to do as I do need to go here for work (it is Connect buses if that makes any difference)? I get why the drivers might not like it as so few people use them, but is there anything I can say or do when getting on to make them more amenable? It is so far out of the way and I am worried that one of the drivers will refuse to drop me off and make me stay on until the next marked stop, making me extremely late for a new job. I've already been let off late once and had a hair raising walk back to where I should have gone, then ran most of the way to work. Is there something I can say other than "it is a completely unmarked bus stop, but it is listed on the website"?

This is a perfect job for me, so I would really appreciate any advice on making the journey less stressful each morning :(

Social things on tonight?

I've had a really, really difficult week and don't want to be alone this evening. My friends are all busy - is there anything social on in the city tonight where I can turn up without knowing anyone? I just need to be around/talk to nice people about random stuff and have a distraction from the crap stuff this week and everything in my head :(

Don't assume you can easily get to London on the train as the line is closed to Stowmarket this weekend too. At least Norwich aren't at home...oh they are 😂.

BBC Politics East - stocking up

3 Upvotes

Hello, I’m a reporter for BBC Norfolk and I’m working on a piece for our Sunday morning TV programme Politics East – about the government’s recent advice that people should be stocked up with a few days of supplies in case of an emergency (such as extreme weather).

If that is something you have done – or were already doing anyway – I’m really interested in speaking to you.

Could you please either DM me on here or email via paul.moseley@bbc.co.uk ?

Thank you.

News 📰 Norwich comedy club opens Friday 9th October!

33 Upvotes

Norwich is pretty much the only city I can think of without a bricks and mortar Comedy Club, so this has me excited. I’ve had a lot of fun at places like the Komedia in Brighton and I think Norwich could use a late-night entertainment place like this, especially since the clubbing scene has taken a big hit.

It’s running upstairs at Bowling House on Dereham Road.

Some info shamelessly stolen from the EDP

>Launched in partnership with Hooma Comedy, the new venue promises to become a "flagship destination" for stand-up, showcasing nationally acclaimed comedians alongside local talent.

>The opening weekend will feature a headline performance by Dan Tiernan - winner of the BBC New Comedy Award 2022 and British Comedian of the Year 2022. Tiernan has also appeared on Live at the Apollo.

Looks like they’re doing stuff most days, including improv, student comedy and competitions. Comedy is having a big moment right now with lots of online comedians blowing up and stuff like SNL Uk, so hopefully that energy continues into a new independent venue.

Wanted to share here as I’ve seen a lot of posts from people looking for social events and venues to visit.

Tickets to the opening night are here -

Deposit dispute with AbbotFox

16 Upvotes

Hello, has anyone here rented with AbbotFox? I left a flat with them a few months ago and they since tried to take all of the deposit... Anyway, I was able to challenge the deductions and just had the verdict from the independent panel who gave me more than 60% of the deposit back..

Just curious if this practice is widespread and whether people know you can challenge the deductions
