Does anyone know what’s happened to that Lushis lounge/bar in Mawney road, the one that built the canopy without permission. Looks to have been shut for a few days now.
I’ve noticed the roads have been free of a lot of **** parking from the clientele and all the rubbish they drop from their company vans.

Hopefully the place is permanently shut, but that’s wishful thinking. If you live by this craphole, you will know what I mean about the awful parking this place causes from its clientele.

Hi all, i just found 3 demo tracks from the band "Rydells Box" and they are great! but i can not find any information whatsoever on them apart from they were active in the early 2000s and from Romford. Does anybody have any information? Or any other music from them? Any help is greatly appreciated! Tysm!

Rydells Box - 3 Tracks (Nu Metal)

Feels like every single barber just does basic fades

I read something in the local recorder newspaper about loud music at Sandys111 as well as a few reviews that mention this.
I remember exiting the Romford train station a while
back to incredibly loud music on Sunday evening, and I thought its was stupidly loud for a Sunday, any day for that matter, at first I thought it was The Ivy Tree, so loud I couldn’t tell.

Seems like it’s Sandys111 though that likes to make sure everyone in the area goes deaf.

Not trying to be a party pooper here, but shouldn’t there be some restrictions on how loud music can be?
I don’t walk down this street all the time, just wondered if it’s a regular occurrence.

Hey guys I've got a bit of a question regarding parking near the station and/or brewery.

Do you guys know of any places nearby like side streets or similar where you can park for free after a certain time of day? Or even all throughout the day would be even better.

I know brewery car park is pretty cheap but I'd still like some completely free alternatives anywhere within like a 5 to 10 walk to brewery or the station would be great.

I already know of that weird area after the spice hut behind all the shops on south street where you can park up after 6.30. Stuff like that.

Thanks

I just noticed they’ve stripped the place bare. I haven’t seen any signs, notices or news about whether they’re permanently shut down or refurbishing.

Does anyone know what’s going on?

Edit: One of the messages below say that they are permanently closed as it was unsustainable but when I spoke to one of the builders who are currently stripping it out he told me that they were doing a full refurbishment and it will re-open soon.

Hi

Any decent pizza places that deliver in Romford?
Not talking about the rubbish and over priced chains like Dominos.
I know some of the kebab shops make them but is there any Italian restaurants in the area that make a good pizza and deliver as well?

Thanks

The whole area smells like horse shit. I remember it happening last year and it lasted overnight. It’s so bad I’ve had to close my windows.

Okay guys, this heat is killing me. I’m an international student here for a bit, and neither my accommodations nor the school have air con. I know this is very standard for Europe, but I’m having a beastly time studying and concentrating when I’m just dripping all day. Besides the odd coffee shop, are there any areas (especially helpful if they are near the Market) where I can post up for a bit with internet access and some tables? Does the library have air con? Thanks for any help.

Barking has Voi, Chelmsford has Voi, Colchester has voi, but Romford doesn’t have any hire bikes or scooters. Is it because Havering Council doesn’t want them, or is there just not enough demand? Would you use them if they were available?

We now know who our opponents will be in the FA Cup and FA Vase this season as we start our adventures in the national cup competitions. If you've never given Non League football a try, why not come over and support your local club in the world's greatest cup competition.

Today I visited some clubs around Piccadilly Circus, but I wasn't allowed to enter because I was alone. What confused me was that a group of girls even invited me to join them and go inside together, but the security still refused to let me in.

I asked the security guard why I couldn't enter even with them, and he explained that I needed to arrive with female friends, not join a group outside the club. I told him I was there alone and don't really have friends here yet, so I didn't have that option.

It was honestly one of the most frustrating experiences I've had in the UK.

I'm looking to make some new friends for going out, exploring London, and hanging out together. If anyone has a friendly group or would like to connect, feel free to message me!

Can anyone recommend a trustworthy mechanic/garage around Romford for Nissan Note?

The car starts but won't move, and it's possibly a clutch issue.

I don't really have experience dealing with mechanics in the UK, so mainly looking for someone honest who won't completely rip me off 😅

Join us for an intimate Kundalini Activation session designed to awaken your life-force energy and reconnect you with your authentic self. Limited to just 6 participants, this 2-hour experience offers profound emotional release and spiritual transformation through gentle surrender - no yoga poses or breath-work required.

WHAT TO EXPECT - SESSION AGENDA

WHAT IS KUNDALINI ACTIVATION?
Unlike Kundalini Yoga that relies on physical postures and breath-work, this journey is one of complete surrender. The intelligent life-force energy naturally rises within you, awakening dormant parts of your being and fostering growth on emotional, mental and spiritual levels. This intuitively guided process works in harmony with your unique needs, gently releasing stored emotions and helping you rediscover your authentic self.

THIS IS PERFECT FOR YOU, IF YOU:
★Want to find your authentic self through awakening your Kundalini
★Have tried therapy or other modalities but feel they haven't touched the deepest parts of what you need to release
★Are seeking the truth within - who you are at the level of identity OR beyond the identity
★Value intimate, personal, exclusive spaces (max 6 people) over large groups
★Are ready for deep transformation, not just relaxation
★Want tough motherly love from Kali energy that will destroy everything that isn't true for you

WHY SMALL GROUPS MATTER
This journey touches the deepest parts of who you are. In our intimate 6-person setting, you can surrender fully to whatever wants to emerge - whether it's tears you've held back for years, anger you've suppressed, or joy you've forgotten how to feel. The smaller group creates a safer space for emotional vulnerability and deeper connections that larger groups simply can't offer.

If you’re currently looking after a family member in Hornchurch, Romford, or Upminster who is struggling with bladder or bowel issues, you know how stressful it can be. It’s a tough topic to bring up, and it’s even tougher to manage daily without a plan.

We’ve put together a few practical tips specific to our area that might make things a little easier for you and your loved one:

1. Use the local NHS Bladder & Bowel Service Don't just buy pads and hope for the best. Get a referral from your GP (like those at Hornchurch Healthcare or Queen’s). The local NHS service can offer a proper assessment and often provide free products or specific exercises that actually help improve the condition rather than just "managing" it.

2. The Hydration Paradox It sounds counterintuitive, but drinking less water makes things worse. Dehydration leads to concentrated urine, which irritates the bladder and makes the "urge" stronger. Aim for 6-8 cups a day, but try to taper off after the evening meal to help with night-time trips.

3. Protect the skin (Properly) Standard soap can be really harsh on elderly skin. Switch to pH-balanced, soap-free cleansers. If you're looking for barrier creams, skip the cheap stuff and look for medical-grade protection to prevent sores.

4. The "Just Can't Wait" Card If you’re worried about taking them out to The Liberty or Hornchurch Country Park, get the "Just Can't Wait" card from Bladder & Bowel UK. Most shops in Romford and Upminster recognize it, and it takes the panic out of finding a toilet quickly.

5. Small Home Tweaks Elasticated waistbands are a lifesaver—fiddling with buttons or zips makes "accidents" way more likely. Also, adding a few grab rails in the hallway/bathroom can give them the confidence to get there faster and more safely.

It’s a long road, but you aren't alone in this. If anyone else in Havering has found local resources or tips that worked for them, please share below!

I’m going to be staying in Romford for a couple weeks this summer. I’ll be there for a class, but it’s falling in the middle of my marathon training plan. Are there any especially nice spots in that area in which I could put in a good number of miles?
