We're need of someone to do some chimney repairs, can anyone recommend someone?

I've just noticed the white car with the tree-sized dent in the bonnet that has been sitting on the verge by Punch Bowl carpark for the last few days has been joined by a blue car on the opposite side of the road that has landed on its roof, so if you do head out that way (or indeed any way) in...

I've spotted a green flag with an image of a sheep (or maybe a goat?) flying from a pole just outside of Weston, between the Saracen's Head and Weston Hall. I just wondered if anyone knew what the significance was?

Ideally somewhere I can drop off by car - it's quite a big box.

My new project, a collaboration with local folk singer Helena Francesca & fiddle player Olly Parry, will be playing at The Dog House on Sunday 22nd September as part of a week-long UK tour to launch our debut EP. It's a new direction for me, much more songwriting focused than what I've done in...

We've just released the first single from my new project Pistol Pete Wearn & the Wildwood Flowers today. I'd love to know your thoughts? We're launching our EP at The Doghouse on 22nd September if anyone fancies coming along: https://www.wegottickets.com/event/476667

I need a few posters (a half dozen-ish) printed up & I was wondering if there's anywhere in town that could do that for me, who can do a high quality print, like I would get if I were getting a few hundred done?

I shot these videos with my very talented friend Helena yesterday as our contribution to the Christmas campaign for Make Some Noise a (Stafford based) charity we both do some work with. I thought they might be of interest here, given we're both Stafford musicians. If you'd like to help...

I have a circuit which consists of two switches and two pendants & I would like to add a third pendant to it. Is it as simple as running a length of 3 core off one of the existing roses? I don't need it to be switched independently, just light up the other end of the landing when the other two...

Those of you who've seen me live will know I generate percussion on stage by bashing my foot on a wooden box. It's the thing I end up talking about most after gigs so I thought I'd make a little video to show everyone how they're made:

I have a YouTube channel for my music. I'm endeavouring to be a bit more regular with the content on there, so if you would like to keep track of it you can subscribe by clicking here. Some recent things:

My first floor windows are in rather desperate need of a lick of paint. There is a 2-3' sloping roof over the bay window & porch that seems to be rather in the way. I wondered if anyone had any ideas or experience for how best to reach them. I have access to ladders & a shed full of scrap...

I notice they've had a refurb and a bit of a re-brand. Has it changed hands?

I've been asked by Slater's Bar to MC an open mic night for them every Tuesday evening and first one is tomorrow! Any forumites with musical talents would be very welcome to come and perform, whether you are an expert performer with decades of experience, or you've just finished learning your...

I'm in need of a 1/4"-20 bolt, and I'm afraid an M6 just isn't cutting it. Is there anywhere local that keeps imperial sizes in?
