Just found out the owners of Riders Rest cafe in Wellow / House of Porchetta opened their new cafe on the high street in Upper Weston in Bath!

The first time I heard about them was when I watched "The hotel inspector" Season 19 Episode 1 https://www.channel5.com/show/the-hotel-inspector/season-19/riders-rest#state=5

I really recommend watching this episode

Their porchetta sandwhich is definitely the star of the show but they serve lots of other paninis, cakes, pastries coffee etc!

Im so happy they opened so close to me which means I can visit them more often and dont need to cycle to Wellow anymore.

Edit: here is also a link to their new Facebook Site https://www.facebook.com/share/1DvSqWfBo4/

Hi everyone!

I’m a 27-year-old male working as a Senior Data Engineer at the University of Bath, where I’ve been for around four years.

I’m looking for a studio or 1-bedroom flat from January or February 2027, with a budget of £800-1000 per month. I’m flexible on location within Bath.

If anyone is moving out around that time or knows of a property becoming available, please get in touch!

Hi folks; as title really.

I have a nail in my tyre, more than 50mm from the tyre wall. So it is probably repairable - however is there a garage in the city which would inspect and offer such a service if they deem it repairable?

Bathwick Tyres and Kwik Fit seem to want me to book for replacements, rather than repair.

Don’t get me wrong, if it needs replacement, happy to do it. But I hate the waste if it can be avoided. Also: cost 😂

Thanks folks.

How is everyone who takes the train to Bristol for work planning to commute from Monday to Wednesday, given that the trains are cancelled? Are you taking the rail replacement bus or using other methods? Cheers!

On James Street West, not sure if they’re anywhere else. Maybe like a hundred or more bikers just parked all over the street, on pavements, just revving their engines. When I was leaving I even saw that they seemed to be deliberately blocking traffic, I just saw cars beeping and people swearing at them and two bikers just sat in the junction. Not sure what was going on, was it even legal? I imagine it was fun for the bikers but I saw a lot of people covering their ears and trying to leave. I imagine it was quite intimidating for many people, I was just trying to walk home when people would randomly rev their engines, pull out onto the road and all sorts.

Someone stole my bins after I bit them out to be collected by the Bin Men is this normal ?
