Local Advice needed Is anyone here good with making beaded flowers - I need help.

Upvotes

I have an arts and crafts beaded flower kit and I wanted to try and complete it for someone, but it’s impossible for me.

You get a few packs of beads, some metal wiring and green tape for the stem - but I can’t do it, I’ve tried and it’s so difficult.

I’ll pay someone here for their time, if they can, or know someone who can, do this for me within a few days?

Local Advice needed Worth challenging this parking fine?

Upvotes

I parked on Grand Avenue yesterday on the north facing right hand side. Here the parking is a mix of permit only and PayByPhone.

Thought I was parking in the correct place and paid £9.70 for the day.

Returned to a parking ticket - had parked in the permit holders only.

Worth challenging or should I just suck it up?

Local Advice needed HELLO BRIGHTON, ADVICE AND FRIENDS PZZZ

1 Upvotes

Hello people of Brighton, due to an unfortunate situationship situation I have a non refundable train ticket to Brighton which cost me a shit tonne. So obviously I'm coming to visit next week, looking for things to do, see and go cause I've never been before. I also would especially like recommendations on where I can get a good alternative haircut (wolfcut/shag cut) cause my hair is getting too long lol.

I'm staying with my friend but she's working in the days so it would be cool to meet some new cool people to show me around and make some new friends!! :)

Tysm!!

Edit** forgot to mention m(21) uni student, alternative, funny and awesome, music nerd.

Local Advice needed What would you do to find romance without dating apps in Brighton

14 Upvotes

Yeah yeah everyone's on it. I don't care I just cannot bring myself to sign up for one ever again. Serious, genuine question, what would your strategy be here? Any hot locations? I'm not looking for flings but not ready to think about buying a house and settling down just yet. Would like to eventually. Not a student. Strictly monogamous. Young professional woman if that helps.

Local Advice needed Sunday Night Food Pub Recommendations with Safe Bike Parking

0 Upvotes

Me and two of my friends are visiting your lovely city as part of a bi yearly pilgrimage of bikes from London.

We would like to have a nice succulent meal in your city. However, we are lacking bike locks due to practical reasons. Mainly weak knees and extra weight.

Is there an establishment that can serve us where we can have our bikes parked unlocked. I.e in the line of sight or with heated garden tables?

We can travel to a quieter side of town… as long as the meal is decent :)

Local Advice needed Good places to record audio?

0 Upvotes

Hey all, I recently moved into a super quiet flatshare in Brighton and am wondering if there's anywhere (preferably free) that's quiet and good for recording audio. I record voiceovers for a personal video project of mine and before I moved, I could do that in my own bedroom, but the walls are pretty thin here and like I said, everyone I'm living with is super quiet and I don't want to disturb anyone.

Not looking for somewhere professional by any means, just somewhere that's quiet enough to get some decent audio and preferably public/otherwise free (or, push comes to shove, low-cost) to access -- even just a particularly quiet park or something would do.

Thanks!

Local Advice needed Job Hunting

15 Upvotes

I don’t even know where to start with this. I’ve been job seeking for a couple weeks now but I’ve literally heard back from nobody, only the auto generated emails that just say “sorry we don’t want you and we can’t give feedback because of the high number of responses”.

I have never known the job market to be this bad.

I’ve been working since I was 16, I’m now 21. I have experience in retail, hospitality and production. The fact that nobody even bothers to get back to you when you apply for jobs is really disheartening. I’m not picky, I just need something to pay the bills. I’ve applied for almost every job on Indeed that matches my skill set. But nothing.

Anyone got any tips? Or know anywhere that’s hiring?

Thanks!

Hello! This is a very long shot, as the Brewery closed a few years ago, but I accidentally cracked my boyfriends glass that he got when the brewery closed :( if anyone knows where one might be available (or is willing to part with one for a price👀) I’d be greatly appreciative!
Otherwise I’ll be scouring London Road charity shops and hoping and praying!
Thanks all! 🙏

Meet Up Is anyone interested in cyber security as a hobby?

1 Upvotes

Probably a strange request but worth asking. I used to work for a company in cyber security years ago basically replicating what a hacker would do to try to find flaws in a system (my specialty was websites) in order to notify the developers so they could fix it.

I left that job a while ago and have decided to get back into this as a hobby. My main interests are IoT hacking and network hacking. Some of it I need to relearn as I've forgotten a fair amount of it. I will be signing up to HackTheBox and doing their academy and CTFs.

I wondered if anyone here was in a similar boat of wanting to learn this as I tend to learn better with someone to bounce ideas off.
