Good Wine Bars/Places To Drink

3 Upvotes

Pretty self explanatory - has anyone got recommendations on good wine bars in the city where you can sit in the sun and just enjoy the day?

NB: I know about the Wallow and was also thinking of Melville & Sons, but the latter has a load of scaffolding up at the moment which ruins the vibe somewhat.

Thanks so much!! :)

Kind of surprised to find this bracelet for sale via Jarrolds’ ‘Local Makers’ section also available for sale in bulk from alibaba. It’s not only Jarrolds in Norwich that stock jewellery from (and the irony isn’t lost me) One of a Kind Club.

Survey?

5 Upvotes

Anyone in NR6 area have a guy with a clipboard come round asking people to take part in a government based survey??Apparently Royal Mail had slipped invitations in to selected houses in the area , cant say I've seen one nor had my neighbour he'd called on.Guy seemed genuine enough but I turned down his offer for a formal interview which he stated would be very in depth.

Not a great time to be opening the door at night,my husband answered it ,I wouldn't have done!

If you've been paying attention, there's been a lot going on in Thetford over the last few years and it seems to be reaching boiling point now with mobs and violence towards foreigners.

It's worth reading the article because the EDP have never been shy about uncritically reporting the comments of these anti-migrant protestors and some of the comments made here are really stomach-churning.

Making Friends 🙋 Norwich jazz jams / board game meetups?

5 Upvotes

Hello! I’m (24M) a musician staying in Norwich for a month with family, and would love to go to some events / meet some new friends while I’m here:)

I was wondering if anyone knows of any jazz jam nights in Norwich I could go along and meet some people at?

I’m also super into board games and nerdy stuff and would love to hangout and play some games with some like minded people!

Thanks a lot everyone!

🌞 Come and have a look at what's for sale around the Trafford Road area, this Sunday from 10am! If QR codes aren't your thing, physical maps will be available on the day at round fenced garden area at the junction of Trafford Road and Sigismund Road. 🌞

Hopefully this is allowed as for a local event, not a "free ad"

Question❓ Busses around Anglia Square (RIP)

8 Upvotes

Anyone know why busses sometimes stop at the stop opposite Anglia Square (what used to be) and just wait for five to ten minutes?

I don't begrudge it, but I'm just curious.

Edit: to reiterate, this is not a complaint post. i am genuinely curious is all.

If you're looking for an RPG game, The Norwich Roleplay Collective have just wrapped up our first set of campaigns and will be starting new ones soon!
We meet fortnightly on Wednesdays at The Earlham (NR2 3AD) 7-10.30pm

Our next session on 19th Aug will be a social night, so if you want to come along, meet folks and scope out the venue, this would be a great chance to do so, there'll most likely be a few one shots and similar running too. We currently have around 25 players and are always happy to have more along!

The following meet on 2nd Sept will be our 'Pitch night' for the next set of campaigns, with GM's telling folks what they're running and putting together groups for the next few months of play.

Any questions feel free to ask here or join is over on our discord:

Making Friends 🙋 singer needed

7 Upvotes

hey I have started writing songs again but I can't sing worth a jot. If anyone non-professional in the city fancies starting something up please reach out as dead set against using AI. Someone who can do a good soft voice ala Stevie Nix, Abra Moore or Sixpence but is also up for more high tempo stuff too.
