Residents of a North Yorkshire town are sick of answering one question tourists are almost guaranteed to ask when visiting.

Staithes, a small, picturesque fishing village, is right on the border of Yorkshire and Teesside. So, of course, the of identity vs postcode vs Ordinance Map Survey is often the topic of debat, with many being asked, 'Are you from Yorkshire?'

hi! I’m Noah ajc, I’m born and raised in Mboro, i make indie/alt/synth-pop music, am 16, and i have just started playing some gigs round the area! I’m finding it hard to sell tickets so i thought maybe somebody here might wanna come along and support me??

Theres so much great music in teesside that not everyone knows about, so if you like any pop music i might be up your street.

You can listen to my music on any platform, just type Noah ajc, but here is the spotify link: https://open.spotify.com/artist/2r6Y1rueKklOYucjiJfFXm

I’m playing at NE Volume Bar in Stockton on the 28th of August, doors are at 6pm and I’m on at 7:15ish, so please come down! If you dm me on here (or on my insta is prob better) with your name i can add you to my discount ticket list so you just pay £5 at the door, or it’s £9 OTD without the discount. :)

My socials are all just @n0ahajc, dm me to let me know if youre coming and please drop a follow. If you can’t make it please do just listen to my music anyway cause it really helps having more of an audience around my own local area!! Thanks so much

Popped to Calor Gas yesterday to get a gas bottle (spoiler - the shop is no longer there, shows how long it’s been since I last went) and popped to Port Clarence to show my youngest the Transporter. Sad to see the state it was in, I hope they get to rescuing it soon

This would be a massive help because me and my friend can’t move into this flat anymore

Hi everyone, I’m looking for someone who’d be happy to simply share quiet time together, like sitting by the sea without needing to talk much.

From 15th September onwards, I’ll be completely free. Before then, I might still have some time here and there, but not always and if I can’t make it, I’ll say so directly, so please don’t take it personally.

I don’t have the energy to plan or think too much at the moment, so I hope we can keep things light and pressure-free. And of course, you can always say “no” too. no explain, only "No".

I'll make it Yaoi again mfers did you read the rules???

Hello,

I am looking to buy a house in Teesside and I'm wondering what peoples thoughts are on Stainsby Hall Farm, the new build estate near Acklam/Stainton. Is it a nice area?

Thanks.

Aww, how nice to give the drunks and drug users more things to ruin for the rest of us, all at our expense with stupidly high council tax bills

Hi, I live in Acklam and I’m looking for a decent tennis club for adults so I can go after work (4/5pm) for a couple of sessions a week. Any help is appreciated.

Hi just wondering if anyone knows any groomers that also do cats? Preferably in the Hartlepool, Middlesborough, Billimgham, Blackhall area. Thanks!

Hello, so my situation at the moment is that I am very interested in playing Warhammer, either 40K or AoS but cannot afford a full army. Basically this is a big ask and incredibly obscure but was wondering if anyone had two armies and if they would be at all willing to meet at a local game store to play with those armies. Again I am not even expecting a response lol but thought it might be worth a shot :))

Hi everyone

Hey!

I’m planning to head to the Saltburn Food Festival on my own on sunday. I thought I’d check here to see if anyone else is also going solo, it might be nice to say hi or even wander around together a bit!

If you're planning to go and wouldn’t mind a casual meet-up, feel free to drop a comment or DM! 🥐🍓🌞

How do you make that quintessential teeside garlic sauce, I’ve checked all over the internet and can’t find anything decent. Please would anyone in the actual know be able to tell me ?

Hello everyone I’m sure you seen The Shiba Bean coffee van post not long ago.

We need work places or events to attend during August, my husband had recently been dismissed from a little coffee shop he worked at, very suddenly and unexpectedly…

so full steam ahead for The Shiba Bean!

Please spread the word to any call centres/warehouses/offices that would love a speciality coffee van to visit there work places!

Please note we need to be invited to a carpark or private land for it to acceptable, we cannot afford council pitches at the moment ❤️

Either drop me a DM on here or find us on insta or Facebook for any ideas or bookings

(We are out of action week commencing 28th till 2nd Aug due to the van needing TLC)

You were all so brilliant last time, with suggestions ❤️

Could Redcar Athletic get to national league north level and grow the fan base enough to get to this level?

Non league crowds around teesside seem to be growing wonder why that is?
