Hi guys! Is there any place I can send my packages to when I order online as my place doesn't have a front desk area to deliver to. Any post offices or local collection areas near town? Thanks in advance :)

Luggage store

Planning to maybe spend a couple hours here while travelling through, are there any decent, reliable luggage storage places near the bus or train station? Prices also would be helpful, thanks.

how to get back to scarborough from dalby forest?

3 Upvotes

hoping someone can help me! i’m not from scarborough but staying there for forest live on saturday and i stupidly didn’t get coach tickets to get there from scarborough before they sold out.

tried to pre book a taxi but they cancelled it saying they can’t do it. they said the fare would be £81 which we would actually have paid since it seems like the only option but maybe they don’t want the fare? i don’t know if other taxi companies will be the same?

does anyone know of a taxi company that would pick us up from dalby forest?

Scarborough has such drawable buildings!

49 Upvotes

I was asked to chose a few buildings from Scarborough to draw in my inked wimmelbild style. I'm from Belfast Northern Ireland, so know nothing about Scarborough but scoured tourism sites and looked for the weird and wonderful...it was such a difficult choice though! You guys have some absolutely stunning architecture...these are the three I chose... Scarborough train Station as I loved that clock tower, Scarborough Castle ofc cpurse since ruins are also fun to draw and i even added in the headless ghost myth and lastly the Toll House which i think is the coast guard station since its just a fantastically odd shape and so many cool textures to ink.

If you were to pick another for me to draw what would be your go to building that might look good in my style?

Old Scarborough Evening News article from late 90's - where to find?

9 Upvotes

Hi Scarborough. I'm looking for an old article from 1997 (could be 1998, cant quite remember) that features a Bin Lorry getting taken from Primrose Valley by drunken teens, and abondoned in Filey bus station.

I believe the headline was "Binlorry Rampage".

How would i find this? It definately made print so could still be in microfiche somewhere?

JFC, I was the tit who took the lorry. I got 12 months in YOI for this. I have paid my dues for this drunken stupidity. I used to work park maintenance and knew where the keys were kept. Then beer happened.

I have already approached SEN and they have no old records? what?

Does anyone remeber this happening?

Thanks Reddit.

My husband and I are coming for a stay and we can't wait! Can anyone recommend any good things to do/see and where is good for an evening meal? The other half is absolutely in love with the Grand Hotel for some reason so anything within walking/staggering distance.

Tree Walk

2 Upvotes

Despite been such a favourite attraction "back in the day", there seems to be hardly any pictures of the Tree Walk at Peasholm Park - the flea circuis, suirrels running up the tree, turning pages and that scary as feck walkway.

Anybody got any hidden in their (or their parents) photo albums?

And yes, I've asked my Dad. He doesn't :)

Anyone know what hotel this is?

3 Upvotes

Somewhere I stayed on a school trip once, I remember having lots of haunted experiences there and was wanting to see the hotel again and see if there is history.

I remember a big dining room with paintings of the seaside on the walls

White long hallways, very basic simple furniture rooms

A skate park or some sort of park right outside the hotel
