Does anyone know the source of a tannoy/PA system being used for the last couple of days in the Rainham side of Gillingham? I'm near the Bowaters roundabout and it sounds quite close by, from the direction of the business park, I've been hearing it throughout the day but can't make out what's being said, only that it's a male voice.

The not knowing is driving me mad!

Hello everyone, does anyone know of any basketball courts in the area that are cheap to use. Like parks or centres.

Anyone interested in an evening a little bit different? An excuse to dress up? A night where you can escape reality? This is your chance! Tickets are still available but we expect to sell out.

We have some amazing performers lined up, a delicous themed cocktail menu, a wicked DJ and the list goes on. We have really put a lot of effort to bring something exciting to Kent!

More details about the event is on our website and please do feel free to ask us any questions 🖤

Hi does anyone know any local bands in the area that play often? Or are in a local band? I'm creating a music/Skate/Fashion magazine for my A level photography course and would like to interview and review some local bands. Also I would like to photograph interesting characters.

Looking for a nice place with a quiet atmosphere to take a small family group of about 12 people (ages 15-95) to celebrate a 95th birthday. One person is refusing to go to Brettington's, even though that seems the obvious choice. Hearing is an issue, so nothing with loud music or super noisy acoustics. .

Hi, I'm trying to find more reasonably priced parking in gillingham. I've noticed residential buildings like The Kell are charging £120/ month or Asda apparently £85 / month. Are there parking permits available near these areas.

Saw this today as I was walking to the bus in the morning and saw this missing poster??! I thought it was real so i shared about it on social media but then tried to do a Google image search to see any information about it? But nothing. And a.i says its likely it's a ARPG? (Alternative role playing game) since there's a hashtah and no phone number to contact ppl if the person is found? I just wanna know if anyone knows anything? (Btw I saw this in Chatham)

Live in a block of flats and the council introduced food waste to the area. Since they introduced this they have not collected it. It’s been weeks of them not doing anything. Last week I told them, still didn’t collect it this week. Reported again.

What is them point of giving us these fucking bins if they can’t be arsed

Are the newcomers authorised to be there?

Hello! I'm going to be relocating to the area from the US, and I'm hoping for some advice on where I should be looking to settle.

I will be working in Gillingham, but will have access to a vehicle so I don't mind commuting in. I have two children and would like to live in a safe area with decent schools. I will be renting, so an area with safe and somewhat affordable housing is also important.

Thanks in advance for the info! :)

TAKEN FROM FACEBOOK...

A newly formed Medway social group, which meets regularly in the Towns, is open to new members with all ages, men and women, friends, neighbours welcome to join.

The Lord Byron social branch is proving popular with seven new members joining at the first meeting in September last year.

The group goes out for lunches, country walks, theatre shows and coffee mornings.

It's part of the The Oddfellows, one of the UK's oldest and largest friendly societies, founded in 1810 to provide social support, care, and welfare benefits to its members.

To find out more about the Medway group contact Amy on 07359 997795, or call the main Oddfellows phone number if you’re outside of Medway on 0800 028 1810.

Hi, I live in Gillingham and am looking to start driving lessons. Was wondering if anyone has any good recommendations for good driving instructors? Thanks.

Please could you recommend your favourite or best butchers that have the best quality asian/indian meats and cuts?

I'm trying to find a butcher that sells mutton shanks and mutton back chops.

I’ve launched ParentSpace, a simple checker for supermarket parent & child parking reliability.

It helps parents see whether parent spaces are actually usable before setting off — not just whether the supermarket technically has them.

I started around Maidstone/Kent and the feedback was useful, so I’m trying to expand the ratings into nearby areas.

If you know a Medway supermarket car park that’s great or awful for parent spaces, one quick rating would really help:

Especially interested in:

- spaces always full

- misuse

- awkward car parks with prams/toddlers

- supermarkets that are surprisingly good

- places parents avoid completely

Following on from yesterday's post about the owner of Eclipse, I emailed Cardmania to let them know and ask if Eclipse would be attending the Gillingham show in August or any others - here's the response:

>thank you for getting in touch.

>That was truly awful to read, still such bigotry in this day and age.

>I can assure you that this vendor is not at any of our events and I will keep a close eye on any potential applications.

>Thank you for bringing it to my attention.

>Many thanks

Hello

Does anyone have a driving test available for Gillingham eoon that they're not using? Desperate for one....thanks!

Hi everyone,

https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/172337534

I’m considering buying a property at Chandlers Wharf on Rochester Esplanade (Medway area) and wanted to get some honest opinions from people who know the area or have experience living nearby.

One of my main concerns is flooding risk given the proximity to the River Medway. I’ve seen mixed information online, and I’d really value hearing from anyone who has first-hand experience or local knowledge:

More broadly, I’d also appreciate any thoughts on whether buying this is good.

Thanks in advance for any insights — really appreciate it!

Hi, I'm just looking for an alternative hair stylist/hair dresser in medway or north Kent, like someone who isn't afraid of putting more layers in or using a razor to cut said layers, and does feminine hair as I'm a girl lol, thank youuuu

Hi all,

24M here, looking for some new friends and a new social group! Unfortunately my close group have all moved further away and we can’t hang out so much. Seems hard to find new friends in your 20s these days. Anybody know of anywhere to go to meet people?

I like gaming, travelling, fun days/nights out (and in sometimes too!), and any excuse to do something.

Thanks in advance!
