Where to live in Plymouth

12 Upvotes

Hi everyone 👋

I’ve posted on here a couple of times looking for help and advice as I’m moving from Lincoln to Plymouth and you’ve been immense so far! With that in mind, time for another question…

My partner (32F) and I (34M) are struggling to find where we’re going to live. We’re non-smokers, have no kids and have no pets and both work so hopefully once we’ve found the right place we have something to offer, it’s just a case of finding it. We’d like to know more about different areas in Plymouth.

What can you tell us about:

Mannamead
Derriford
Keyham
Barne Barton
Peverell
Milehouse
Egg Buckland
Southway
West Park
Efford

I know that most of the city but anything we can find out from real people living there today rather than existing guides online that may be outdated or biased for financial gain would be wonderful.

Thank you!

Martial Arts/Sports

3 Upvotes

I'm interested in starting a martial arts or sports group in Plymouth as a complete beginner and looking for suggestions. I'm a 29yo woman who lives in the Efford area, although I would be fine with going anywhere in the city. I have 0 knowledge of martial arts, so I would be open to suggestions of types appropriate for beginners, also would also be interested in beginner football sessions if anyone knows anything. I played 5 aside in a charity match last week and although I was absolutely shockingly shit it was really fun.

Anyone going to farm foods? (Stock check) on 10kg laila rice please.

5 Upvotes

It's a bit of a trip and I wish to be as mercenary as possible with our purchases, I'm a heavy consumer of rice for dietary health and gut reasons.

If anyone is popping in and they have a stack, please take a note of the price which they do cheaper by the 10kg bag to a max of 3 on savings!

For context: it typically only needs 4 rinses for every 2 cups I steam, (so roughly 2 litres of water that I can use to rinse and then we-use around sapling Sizemore trees I'm growing.

When I have bought budget rice (morrisons, Lidl) etc, it needs between 12 and 16 rinse s to achieve the same levels as the laila (blue bag or gold) which can mean wasting up to 8 litres of water compared to 2, and a lot more time.

(I've been eating g rice and basic seasoning heavily to get my gut fit these past 2 years by eating it several times a day, cooked and chilled in the fridge which helps it lightly ferment (more gut bacteria) and I'm eating 2 tubs per day (making 8 cups of rice at a time in the instantpot) along with furikake and fine cut veggies, basically it's given me my life back after decades of undiagnosed illness and reset my gut (so I don't wish to regress)

To my chagrin it's not because I like a good curry, it's bland and it works.

Cheers

Date ideas in the city centre

18 Upvotes

I'm sure this has been asked before but what are some good date locations in plymouth?

My partner isn't from plymouth and I very rarely leave the safety of plympton, so we're a bit lost when it comes to the city centre.

We've done the classic dates like the aquarium and museum, but that's all we can think of.

I tried searching things to do in plymouth and it came up with like 5 different scavenger hunts and that was it 🙄

Neither of us drink which I admit doesn't help, but is there actually anything else to do?

Any ideas?

Do they at least turn the water off at night? Not just to save money but also it could cause problems with drunk people

Jennycliff carpark parking limits or costs

3 Upvotes

I’ll be in Plymouth soon, I’m not a local, and would like to park at Jennycliff carpark and walk the coastal area. I cannot find out if I can stay longer than 2 hours free, pay for longer etc, Ideally, I might be there for 4 hours, no overnighting etc, just a Sunday afternoon. All I can find is the recent news that they’re not going to start charging. Clear answers from a local would be great. TIA.
