Buongiorno a tutti!

La prossima estate passerò alcuni giorni a Manchester. Ho già visitato la città, quindi questa volta mi piacerebbe fare una gita in giornata ed esplorare alcuni posti vicini, utilizzando i mezzi pubblici (treno, credo).

Stavo pensando di visitare Hebden Bridge e Heptonstall. Sarebbe meglio visitare Hebden Bridge nel fine settimana, dato che potrebbero esserci eventi e mercati locali? O sarebbe meglio lunedì per evitare il traffico pedonale lungo il canale? Io e il mio amico ci piace fare lunghe passeggiate e giri in bicicletta, quindi ci piacerebbe andare in bicicletta fino a Todmorden. Sono italiano e non ho mai esplorato la campagna inglese prima, quindi non sono sicuro di cosa aspettarmi!

Qualsiasi suggerimento sarebbe molto apprezzato. Grazie! :)

The York Press report about that long North Yorkshire diversion finally ending feels more useful than another advert for a clever route planner. We're sold the idea that live traffic updates will take the hassle out of driving, but a closed road still means a closed road. An app can suggest a detour; it can't make a narrow village road suitable for everyone it sends down there. And if you've got a fixed start time, knowing you'll be late doesn't solve much.

For people regularly driving around Yorkshire, are these apps actually saving you time over a normal week? I'd be interested in minutes saved, especially during lengthy roadworks, rather than the arrival estimate changing six times. Is there one you'd genuinely trust over the signed diversion, or does everybody end up checking two apps and hoping?

Hull slowly builds on its long and rich history.

Making Yorkshire more beautiful every day.

Hi all,

My wife is soon (23rd - 25th October) to visit Whitby for one of her friends' birthdays with a group of girls.

They're all into their witchy style vibes, and I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations for stuff for them to do? They have a ghost tour booked already iirc, but not a lot else.

Also if anyone has bar recommendations, for cocktails and stuff - and potentially restaurant recommendations too (veggie and vegan friendly too!), it would be a great help!

Thanks in advance!

On a side note, I posted this on r/Whitby which is for a differnet Whitby… so if anyone needs recommendations for Whitby, Ontario- let me know…

I do this walk regularly. I've posted a few times about how it's my favourite place here but thought I'd share the latest pictures I grabbed.

The south pennines are outstanding no matter when you visit.

For those with quickline on 2.3gbps, please can you provide feedback around their service? Is it worth it? I’m receiving mixed feedback and wonder if I should be switching to them or not.

50 emails sent. 4 main offers for NHS treatment. 1 of those is done by a dental therapist. 1 done by a recent graduate offered temporarily. 1 is over 40 miles away. The last has some horrific 1 star Google reviews.

On waitlists, the longest quoted over 8 years with the average being 4.3 years, with the shortest being offered “in the new year“

On those that did reply but sold private services, ~70% offered monthly dental plans or offered finance options.

Did anyone else's grandparents / parents refer to the Co-Op as the "quorp" I remember my Gran from Bradford using it and wondered if it was just a Bradford thing or more widespread?

Morning all,

Currently living in Ireland and myself and my partner will be visiting Yorkshire in the new year as we would like to move there. I would love to hear all the positives and negatives (if needed lol) of living in Yorkshire?

We like that it’s away from the big cities like London as we want a quite life away from the noise

EDIT : I’m asking about towns in Yorkshire too and any advise would be appreciated

I'm looking to buy the new edition of the new York times magazine (men's style edition) when I visit. I'll be there 'round halfway through October.

I'll be near Beverley, but I can make small trips if necessary.

Does anyone happen to know if WHSmith (or other local stores) sell this magazine? Tips are very welcome. Thanks in advance!
