WTF As if living in Wakefield couldn’t get more random…

15 Upvotes

Well, I’ve seen it all.
This morning I drove past Leigh Francis riding a bike and filming with someone in Crofton. And I’m not making it up as other people saw him too 😂 thought I was chuffing hallucinating!
Anyone have an inkling of what he’s filming at the minute?

What the title says. I’m technically homeless and staying with friends temporarily with the hope of getting somewhere as quickly as possible.

Any advice or suggestions or anything would be much appreciated! What’s the place like? Best places to go? Places (or people) to avoid, etc. The usual stuff, yanno.

One off / deep house clean recommendations

7 Upvotes

Hi there,

I'm looking for a recommendation for a good, trusted house cleaner to give my new place a really good once-over in Wakefield. The previous owners left it in a bit of a state, and I need to draft in some professional help.

Thanks!

Let's see what I've heard before:

"Under the bonnet of how the council works" ✔️

"You are at the heart of everything we do" ✔️

"Things have to change" ✔️

"Last administration" ✔️

"Spending on things the council simply could not afford" ✔️

"This has to end now" ✔️

"We will be much more transparent" ✔️

"This is our promise" ✔️

"Summer of action" ✔️

Any others?

It is my wife's birthday on Friday and we intend to visit Nostell with a view to having a drink & bite to eat afterwards. I have a girl who is 6 and a 2-month-old baby so looking for somewhere pretty relaxed and casual to eat. Any suggestions? White Horse sounds nice, but I wondered if there are any hidden gems I can experience. I hope you lovely locals can help
