It’s Saturday, one of the best days of the week (for those of us who don’t work weekends, anyway).

What’s happening? Barbeque in the sun? Sheltering from an impending thunderstorm?

Pop in for a chat.

    Hope everyone’s having a great Saturday, it’s sweltering here, 30 degrees! Probably not the right place to ask this, but I don’t want to create a top level post. I’m just wondering if there’s a list of UK focused Lemmy communities anywhere? There are some, which I thought would already exist, that I’ve not been able to find.

    Apologies if I’m missing something, I’m new to Lemmy having been a reddit user for 15 years (although I’ve been using Mastodon for a while, so generally used to the fed way of doing things).

      I’m not sure if there’s an official list but we’ve got a couple of UK-focused instances popping up, feddit.uk and lemmy.org.uk although both have been having stability issues I believe.

      Community-wise apart from whatever is on those I know there’s !unitedkingdom@lemmy.ml if you’re into the more serious side of things.

        Thanks, I’ll take a look. I was surprised I couldn’t find a community for London for example, so I’ve just created one !london@lemmy.world . Feels like there are lots of other significant gaps for other major towns and cities, sports teams etc. I’m sure it will get there.

    I woke up to a load of noise downstairs, went to investigate assuming it was my cat… who I couldn’t see. No problem, I thought.

    Stood in the kitchen making a cuppa and I hear a very sorry meow, so obviously assumed my poor boy was hurt!

    No. Completely wrong. Some random cat is sat on the windowsill in my living room. Dead lovely little thing that enjoyed a bit of fuss before I let it back out into the world!

    Moved out of York earlier this year and will be heading back for a proper visit for the the first time since the move today. Going to be strange driving past the place I lived for years but on the plus side, it’s one of the few places in the UK with a taco bell!

      If it’s anything like the US taco bell, probably best avoided. Enjoy York though, it’s lovely.
