Here's us thinking Glossop was getting a town centre police station. No, @itvx.com drama "After The Flood" is filming instead. #highpeak #Glossop #peakdistrict #Derbyshire

We're not sure why this has come through the door, @tamesidecouncil.bsky.social when I live in High Peak! You've not swallowed us up yet! Gaslighting is what it is! #highpeak #Glossop #peakdistrict #Derbyshire #1984

Traffic is so awful in Glossop that they've taken to the pavement in protest! #highpeak #Glossop #peakdistrict #Derbyshire @manchestereveningnews.co.uk @glossopchronicle.bsky.social @theguardian.com

This morning I awoke at 3:30am and started work at 4am because tomorrow GIMP is doing a cultural exchange in Oslo, and it's an early flight. Those "rise and grind" dick heads must be on drugs because I've done this once and feel awful. #Glossop #peakdistrict #highpeak

Now that's a view well worth the cost of a return to Manchester. Hang on. £8.30 off-peak? Are you having a laugh @northernrail.bsky.social ?! #peakdistrict #Glossop #Hadfield #dinting #highpeak #ripoffbritain

Plot available on Victoria Street in Glossop. There's no vape shops or barbers up there, someone could make a killing. #Glossop #highpeak #peakdistrict

More graffiti destroying our town! Remember, there's a cash reward for the identity of these vandals and we'll double it if the info leads to a conviction. £1 for info, £2 for conviction. #Glossop #highpeak #peakdistrict #graffiti @jon4highpeak.bsky.social

Pressing ahead with the re-workings and live playing of a number of tracks - here's a re-worked and played live track from Polymorphic #electronica #peakdistrict

We're sick of seeing this all around our beautiful town! It's a scourge. We are offering a cash reward for the identity of this "artist" and we will double it if it leads to a conviction. £1 for the info, £2 for the conviction. #Glossop #highpeak #Derbyshire #graffiti

Just Stop Oil stopping direct action and claiming "mission accomplished" is like us taking credit for the bypass being built because we've whinged about it at the bus stop.

How is a Glossop resident supposed to ride their bike on the pavement with this going on? #brokenbritain #highpeak

Where do you think this is? Clue. It ain't Glossop. Happy to build a tunnel under and estuary but won't fix one of the two existing roads that connect two cities in the North. @jon4highpeak.bsky.social ukjournal.co.uk/uk-approves-...

We have eye witness reports of a very famous celebrity cutting in on Mottram Moor. When we reach 100 followers we will reveal all. #Glossop #mottrammoor #bypass #celebwatch

We have (seemingly) accidentally been included on a group chat between local councillors discussing the new market hall in #Glossop. If you saw some of the messages you would actively campaign to join Greater Manchester! #highpeak #Derbyshire #civilwar
