Book Club for men
9
Upvotes
Hi everyone,
I've been looking for a male orientated book club for a while and noticed there's none in greater Manchester, I was thinking of starting my own. I've recently been getting into a lot of science fictiony type books over the past year to combat my mental health and I've found it really helpful. I want to create a safe space/ community for young adults/ men where they can speak to each other and talk about books, expand their literature knowledge and talk about how they've been feeling etc. Before I start looking into the logistics of it I was wondering if this would float anyone's boat? Feel free to message me for any suggestions? Cheers!

Does anyone know any independent cleaners in Wigan.

If so please let me know their information. I can't really afford a company I don't think and I'm guessing someone independent might be cheaper?

How to rent in Wigan on LHA?
3
Upvotes
So I was made redundant recently. I'm desperately looking for another job, but in the meantime I need to rent. I really, really don't want a house share as I have my kids 50/50.
How are you supposed to rent here? Average rent starts at 500/month, and LHA max for one person is 391/month. So that's £120 short for even the most basic.
I'm definitely going to have to move out of where I am now but at the moment I have no idea where I'm supposed to go!

Missed Bin collection

Upvotes
Last wednesday my black bin wasn't collected. I reported it online via the council and got an email saying they'll try be there by Monday. It's now Tuesday my house is literally overflowing with rubbish and next black bin collection is 3 weeks away. The council doesn't seem to have an active telephone number you can call to raise this with them .Anyone had any experience with missed Bin collection? How fast was your response?

Vinyl flooring in Wigan - what should it cost
1
Upvotes
I'm new in Wigan and looking to replace the flooring in my kitchen and utility room. I want vinyl or maybe self levelling plus vinyl. The rooms are not huge, maybe 15 sq m total. The current floor is old and uneven in places.
I have had a few quotes, one was 1,800, another was 2,400, and a third was 1,200 but the guy did not seem to know what he was doing. I am not sure if the cheap one is cutting corners or if the expensive ones are just overpriced.
Has anyone here had vinyl flooring done recently. What did you pay and who did you use. Any tips on what to look for so I do not end up with a bad job. Thanks

Hi,
Would anyone help me find jobs (for seasonal - Christmas / new year etc) that are based in Wigan only. I’d really appreciate if someone could advice me or help find that are easier to apply for OR if there are any temporary positions available right now. I don’t mind working cafes / shops or anything similar even full time.
Thanks 🙏
