From their online timetable they seem to have a very active tennis / yoga / exercise class filled timetable. The reviews all seem very positive - however 90% of the reviews are simply how well people were treated by individuals during the sign-up process. There's very little information regarding the actual classes/atmosphere/equipment/how busy it is etc.

I'm particularly interested in the tennis, padel, yoga and weightlifting. Any current/ex members or know anyone who is at this gym? Would be great to have some info. Thanks.

Are the inflatable monsters visible during the day. I have a day at home tomorrow with my stepson and was thinking of taking him out to do the monster trail if it's not raining. Want to know if we will see them or are they only visible at night?

As the title suggests, I'm looking for a shop that sells a good selection of quality EO's. I know that Holland and barrett do a fair selection and 'the good earth' situated in the city centre do a good selection (although not the best quality). If anyone knows anywhere else that I could try, please let me know. Thanks.

Hey Leicesterians!

Hey guys, did any of you know Nitrous Competitions is based in Leicester? We're always out and about doing promotional work - have any of you seen us about?👍

I drive on this road a lot and often see cars, well Golfs mainly, flying up the bus lane. Are there no cameras to catch them which is why they get awy with driving in the bus lane?

What's with the 3-4 young adults who seem to be filming cars going in and out of the Enderby Police Headquarters?

Hi all.

Does anyone know where i can buy Ghost Chillies, also know as Bhut Jolokia or Gulam Jolokia, in Leicester?

Hi everyone!

I’m currently training for the London Marathon next April and was wondering if anyone had recommendations for good running routes around Leicester, particularly as I start increasing my distances.

I absolutely love running in other cities, but for some reason I’ve struggled to find routes I enjoy as much in Leicester. I think it’s partly because I prefer longer, continuous stretches where I can just switch off and run without constantly stopping at crossings or figuring out where to go.

I live near Evington and don’t mind travelling a little to get to a nice route, but ideally nothing too far out. I’d also prefer somewhere that isn’t too isolated, especially as I tend to run alone (Great Central Way gets really quiet).

I’m still relatively new to running, so I’m not necessarily looking for anything particularly challenging, just somewhere pleasant, reasonably safe and suitable for building up to longer distances.

Would really appreciate any suggestions, especially from people who’ve trained for half or full marathons around Leicester! :)

Edit: Also, a little shameless plug, but if anyone would like to support my fundraising for RNIB, please do let me know! I’d be incredibly grateful 🤭

A very interesting video about Black American GI’s in Leicestershire, and the attempts of white American soldiers and commanders to segregate Leicester when they came in WW2. I’m honestly a bit surprised that I hadn’t heard about this sooner.

Here is the article where I found the video.

Welcome to Bastard Rant Saturday II

Bastard Rant Saturday is back due to popular demand (two people asked). This is a place for random acts of mostly harmless anger and frustration. Vent your spleen, get if off your chest, unload.

What to post :-

• Anything that releases pent-up fury, despair, and irritation

But don't :-

• Lose your temper too much, you still have to play reasonably nicely so please don't push the boat out too far
• Overthink it
• Forget to be human

5 Fox Ln, Leicester LE1 1WT!

Hi there people! I recently visited Leicester, and I was looking for somewhere to park. I went into East Street Car Park next to the railway station to leave my car for a while, but there were no payment machines OR barriers when I drove in. I saw the NCP signange on the gantry as I went in so I tried to find it on their app but I had no luck (turns out they went bust and I didn't realise) so after 12 minutes I drove out. I don't remember any explicit signange to say I could pay online and I wasn't exactly there for long. This happened on 10/10/2026, and I've since received a PCN. Can anyone help with their experiences with Euro Car Parks, or even some up to date pictures of the signage there so I can fight this? I've never had one before and I am quite stressed about it.

(edit)
I do have a picture of the broken/missing payment machine, but nothing else.

Me and my friend really want to attend atleast one Diwali party, any leads would be appreciated.
We missed all of the dandiya nights since i realised late and everything was sold out 🥲

Looking to buy a colleague of mine who is a woman and has recently moved out and got her own place, was thinking of what I could get her as a house warming gift, anyone bought any candles before, or anything of the sort and have personal recommendations?
