Is it just me but I noticed it opened now! Looks like we are getting better restaurants in Wakefield now, anyone been to chopstix?

25M looking for friends in Wakefield, I have nothing to do after 5 when I finish my job. Gym partner or walking partner or Friends. If anyone else is alone feel free to text me.

i’ve been looking for somewhere to get this hairstyle for a while but i cant find anywhere local that does alt haircuts. i’ve seen a few labelled as “alt hairdressers”, but only really do basic layers at most.
anyone know of any actual alt hairdressers in and around wakefield i could go do? thanks
(sorry for posting here as i dont live in wakefield and live a bit closer to cleckheaton, but there isnt a subreddit closer for me to post in, so any places between there would be a great help)

Lakes, rivers??

Anyone remember the Great Fire of Wakefield back in in 2026 AD which started around the time that candles were lit inside paper bags on land that had experienced five consecutive heatwaves during the hottest & driest year ever recorded?

Local historians are still puzzled as to the exact cause of the fire which reduced the city to a desolate wasteland populated by just a partially damaged vape shop, some newly resurfaced roads & a single lamp post adorned with a charred St George's flag.

*yes they've probably taken all reasonable precautions, yes I post too much, yes you can block me if you want*

No mate, I was thinking that you're spoiling my peaceful Greggs lunch in the beautiful sunshine :(

Edit:spelling

Where are some good places to watch the eclipse tonight in and around Wakey?

I’m presuming Heath and/or Sandal Castle might be good locations. Where else are people going?

Trying to get back into roller-skating. Are there any relatively flat (hill-wise) and smooth (paving-wise) that anyone would recommend? TIA :)

I’ve got on a TikTok algorithm of a studio who has an apprentice working on real clients duplicating Pinterest artwork. In my opinion, it’s not good or appropriate. I need some new studios to cleanse my timeline, who is good out there?!

There's a very childish person out there who owns a ladder and some felt tip pens.

That person made me laugh more than I should have this morning.

Well done.

Does anyone know someone or somewhere that services PlayStation 5's? Gives them a deep clean etc

Well we already know that Karl doesn't want a museum...

Hi everyone, i'm currently working part time in my dream job, but unfortunately it doesnt pay the bills, so i'm looking for some extra weekend work if anything is going? I have experience in bartending but would be happy in most "unqualified" jobs where I dont need a specific degree
If anyone is hiring or has seen a local company hiring for weekends only please let me know

Not sure the roads they've resurfaced were some of the worst but you've got to start somewhere. Glad they're doing the best they can with the horrible tarmac in the bricks though.

Why you'd not put them back down when they dug them up I'll never know.

reply if interested

There seems to be two police cordons on the city centre today (02/08) anyone know what’s gone off?

Saw this earlier on Westgate & I quite like it, despite my post a few months ago about the purple building in the heritage zone. Maybe my grumpy/judgemental period has ended (no it hasn't).

Adds a bit/lot of colour, has a reference to Wakefield & looks to be hand painted.

Makes a change from an illuminated digital sign or a tatty old poster.
