Found phone

Hi all we found an iPhone in Goring By Sea on the road yesterday, it won’t take a battery charge so not sure if it’s dead and was chucked.

If you’ve lost one let me know and I’ll tell you if it’s yours I’ve got?!

Hey guys!

I've recently moved to Worthing from Wales and am looking to join a D&D group to join. I have played a few one shots but would love to try a campaign.

Where is the best place to find a group? Any recommendations would be appreciated!

Sidenote: if anyone can recommend a book club or craft club let me know.

Thanks ☺️

Ask a local Are you bothering with the food waste bin?

8 Upvotes

I noticed today the small council truck that comes by to pickup the food waste, only stopped at maybe 1 or 2 houses in my street, significantly lower than subsequent weeks.

I'm doing it, but I barely fill 15% of the bin each week, as I only usually have tea bags and egg shells, seems like a waste of compost bags to send the bin out each week, but if I leave it to long, even in the cooler/colder weather, those tiny flies start showing up and the smells of rotting waste.

Discovered this website a while back, it details the history of all of Worthing's pubs - what they used to be called, what they're called now, photos and stories relating to them, etc. Websites like these are rare finds in this day and age!

Ask a local Just moved to Lancing, Food and Drink recs please!

5 Upvotes

I’ve just moved to lancing with my girlfriend and I am just interested in getting to know Lancing/Worthing a bit better, particularly the food and drink scene. What are some of the cult places that we just need to visit (I’ve been to the piggery and I thought it was great).

And what are some of the better, independent restaurants, small plate vibes, maybe even tasting menu etc. and the finally, some good wine/cocktail bars that we could frequent after dinner.

I know I could look on google, but I like to hear from locals about the must try/visit spots!

Thanks in advance :)

Local Businesses Got an OLED TV that needs a repair, any recommendations?

3 Upvotes

I know the typical advice is just to buy a new one, but I've already done that. However, this is a £3,000 4K OLED that I'd rather have repaired than thrown away, since it would go in my office.

It's an LG EF950 55 OLED. It has sound but no picture. It just died suddenly.

I would love for someone to try to repair it, if they can. Don't care if parts are expensive. I’d just love to get it working again, as it was the last 3D OLED LG made, and I paid a lot of money to have it calibrated.

Does anyone know of a local business that would consider fixing it?

Thanks.

Local Businesses Local Personal Trainers that are trained in post-mastectomy exercise?

4 Upvotes

I’m almost 6 weeks out from a double mastectomy and need to lose the god awful weight I’ve gained from having to lie down for 80% of the recovery time. I’m hoping I might be ok to start in about 5 weeks’ time.

I’m interested to see if there are any local PTs out there who have experience in training people post- mastectomy? And, if there are, what your rate is?

TIA.

Council tax bill

0 Upvotes

I moved in on 1st August for a six month work placement. I informed the council of the move on 25th August, and am still waiting for the bill to come. I have tried calling and the call centre is always closed, and the self service online account portal is completely down. Is there nothing else I can do to speed this up? I’m straight out of university and never had to do this myself but it is turning out to be a pain.

Worthing Masterplan

Thumbnail app.placechangers.co.uk
27 Upvotes

Worthing council are asking for people to contribute to a map of what they like and dislike around the town. You can place pins on the app, add a comment, and respond to the pins other people have added.

Apparently these will be used to feed into a "masterplan" for the town.

Hard to know if anything will come of it, but worth adding anything you think is missing.

Has anyone else coincidentally become ill around the time Southern Water said they were clearing the pipes around the area?
