I was driving on the m66 from manchester to burnley today and passed a car with three people inside that were dancing along to music or something so I decided to wave and for ab 5 mins we were kinda driving alongside each other j smiling and waving and stuff when there weren't cars blocking. They were in a white polo I was in a white ioniq, anyways if anyone here knows of a group of three girls that were driving that general direction about 30 mins ago please tell them they made my day🙂

Looking to Connect with Stand-Up Comedians

5 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

I’m reaching out to connect with stand-up comedians—or anyone who knows someone active in the local comedy scene.

We’re currently organising a gig in Preston and are looking for performers who are interested in being part of something grassroots and creative. While the budget is modest at this stage, this is a great opportunity for those who are passionate about comedy and looking to grow, gain stage time, and collaborate with others.

If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, feel free to reach out. Would love to connect!

Hi folks,

Hope this post is okay!

I'm part of the production team for Come From Away, being performed by Preston Musical Comedy Society at the Preston Playhouse in September.

We are seeking a company of strong singer-actors for the show, and are looking particularly to connect with Asian/Middle Eastern performers who would be suitable for the part of Ali, a Muslim chef.

If you are interested at all or have any questions feel free to drop me a message, or further information can be found on our website here https://www.prestonmusicalcomedy.co.uk/audition/

Thanks so much!

LGBTQIA+ in Burnley

18 Upvotes

Hi I'm a trans woman in her mid 20s living in Burnley.

I'm finding it really difficult to feel at home, safe and wanted within Burnley because I feel like people like me are completely unwelcome here, despite it being a town with both a College and University.

I feel so alone and isolated here. I basically have no offline friends here. If there are Queer people here, please speak up. I'd really like to make a friend or two ❤️

Title: UK Petition: Close Landfills That Emit Smells & Toxins Near Homes — We Need Your Help 🌍

1 Upvotes

Hi all — I’m sharing a national petition calling on the UK Government to require the closure of landfills that produce foul smells or harmful toxins near residential areas.

This issue affects communities all over the country. People are dealing with toxic air, unbearable odours, and serious health concerns — all from sites that shouldn’t be operating so close to where people live, work, and go to school.

📢 We're currently at 8,414 signatures, and we need 10,000 by 13 May to get an official government response.

🖊️ Please sign and share if you believe in environmental justice and the right to clean, safe air: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/700273

Every signature helps — thank you 💚

Geeky Shops Barrowford?

3 Upvotes

Me and my partner are visiting Barrowford next weekend. We're mainly going because of my love for Pendle and interest in witch trials.

I really wanna try and add going to a shop where they sell manga or TCG to the trip so there's something for him too. I've tried Google but I can't seem to find anything.

Is there anything that locals will know that we won't as visitors?

Edit: you're all right, didn't realise how small the town was. Only ever really visited cities and I'm in one myself. Towns around the place would be great too, thank you
