  1. Does anyone have a photo of the General Havelock pub that was on Ronald Street? My Aunt has asked and I can't find anything on a general Google search.
  2. Hey Mrs B and Lizzie. Yes finely chop and stir them into the mash. It would be lovely in a bubble and squeak as well. Hope you both enjoy!
  3. Hey Beekay! It's an Irish recipe I believe but is essentially mash, milk, butter and chopped up spring onions. Delicious!
  4. We've had bangers and champ mash tonight with carrots, tenderstem brocoli and red wine jus. Very nice it was as well!
  5. The company I currently work for used to have a shop on Wheeler Gate (opposite Cafe Nero) and next to Sainsburys but had to give it up n 2018 as the footfall was non existent. There would usually be a homeless person sleeping in the doorway so not the best place to have a shop!
  6. Went to the Headstocks pub for a birthday party in the function room back in March. Clientele seemed nice enough if not a little rough around the edges!
  7. I have tattoos and piercings. No gold teeth or jewelled teeth though! I only have 'normal' piercings - the most outrageous being I swapped my nose stud for a ring!
  8. Hey Margie. I'm with you on this one. I saw lots of people dressed 'inappropriately' whilst out in town yesterday and although it wouldn't be my choice - if they feel good in it - good for them! It doesn't define who someone is. Think we all need to be a bit less judgemental and let people be.
  9. Hey all, official police statement linked below. Awfully sad and very close to home. https://news.nottinghamshire.police.uk/news/man-arrested-after-three-people-found-dead-in-the-city-468375?utm_campaign=channel&utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=referral&fbclid=IwAR0eP0_C4lwXgDhl4RhGvvrqraeMxh0JHBDXUojmOBOGXMgo_gGjZDuDt88
  10. Can I recommend peat free compost if you don't already use it as it's a lot more sustainable and eco friendly!
  11. I'm currently reading the Lord of the Rings series by J.R.R Tolkein. Tried to read them in my teens and struggled but really enjoying them this time around!
  12. Just watched 30 mins of that and will watch the rest later. Really interesting. Thanks for sharing!
  13. I love the Beautiful South and the Housemartins. That's my working from home playlist sorted for the day!
  14. Merry Christmas all. Have an amazing time and stay safe!
  15. Haven't seen it but will probably watch it at some point. If I'm honest I'm absolutely sick of hearing about it! Although I'm on the fence - don't agree with one side or the other, I think both are at fault in some respect.
  16. A day of working from home for me then putting the Christmas decorations up this evening!
  17. I love a Snowball - can't wait for all the festive drinks!
  18. Agree with a lot of the comments here. It has been modernised beyond recognition of a castle and feels like there's almost nothing that's original there anymore. In terms of things to do in Nottingham according to Tripadvisor, Primark and the Tram are more noteworthy than the Castle.
  19. Anyone know when the next draw is for Carabao Cup?
  20. Congrats PP. Sounds like the perfect celebration!
  21. RIP to our beloved Queen. I've always had a soft spot for the Queen and think she is so iconic of everything British. She will be missed by so many. What an incredible job she has done these 75 years!
  22. I also did a speed awareness course there a few years back maybe 5 years or so ago now!
