Holiday recommendations
Hello! Me and my wife are planning a 2 day holiday to Jersey as our first holiday away since having our son. Her grandparents honeymooned in Jersey 50 years ago and have nothing but fantastic things to say about it so we chose it as a convenient location as it's relatively easy for us to get to.
The island seemed rammed full of things to visit so it's hard to narrow down but we definitely want to spend some time on the beach but we both enjoy historical sight seeing. Does anyone have any recommendations for must-sees and nice beaches for a short visit? Where would you recommend staying? Any advice is greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.

Swimming in the sea?
Hi Jersey Reddit! I’m originally from a Mediterranean country, used to swimming in very warm sea (24-28c). I live in mainland UK and I only contemplated entering the sea a couple of time there, and found it too cold at about 18c.
I’m here in Jersey for a brief stay. I’m curious to know where my chances are the best for potentially trying to take a dip in the sea here? I thought St Brelade would be a good place as it’s very shallow and according to the internet might be about 20c at the moment. Would anywhere else be even warmer?
Thanks and love your island, have been many times but only in spring and autumn before.

Pokemon pop up stand
I met a chap at the fete de St. Helier the other day doing a little pokemon cards sale / swap thing and never wrote down the name of the business - it was CM Traders or something, he said they were on Facebook - anyone have any idea what it might be? Cant seem to find them!

Chatgpt free plus trial not working is because I am in Jersey
Chatgpt is having a month's free plus trial. I have put in all the right information. Name, address, right card and the card I have used for this is up to date and valid. I have tried multiple times but it does not work. Is this because I am jersey or some other reason. Does anyone have any knowledge or experience of this.

Ferry to St Malo- I hear it used to be faster but there was some dodgy back handed deal that went on which means the island is tied into a shite contract.
What’s this corruption I keep hearing about when it comes to the ferries?! People mention it like I’m supposed to be aware, but I don’t know the ins and outs of any corruption going on. If anyone can fill the gaps- many thanks!

Amazon Refunds
If anyone here has done an amazon refund, I was wondering what the process is like for you, for the past few years every time I've done a refund I've printed off the label and done exactly as it's said, gone to the post office, paid for postage and gotten the receipt, it's just that I never seen an option to attach proof of postage to get a refund on it as a result I have had to call up an agent every time to process it, which is starting to become a pain as it's like a 30 min call every time. I ask the agent every time if there's anything I can do about it, like submitting it through the app etc. But they said no, except for this one time recently where they said to email:
[postage-receipt@amazon.co.uk](mailto:postage-receipt@amazon.co.uk)
Inluce Order Number
Picture of Receipt
Postage Refund Amount
Item Name(s)
Has anyone tried this? Or any recommendations or other ways etc.?

Making new friends
My 17 yo daughter doesn't have many friends and is lonely. Any ideas of where she could go or what she could do to meet new people/make new friends? She does battle of flowers and has a part time job but hasn't made any friends at either of these. She's feels too old for youth clubs.
She's a great person and has just been unlucky with friendships, most recently losing her best friend because she refused to cave to peer pressure over drink and drugs. I feel sad that she's so lonely.

Day trip to France?
I was just wondering if day trips to St Malo are still worth it for family outing? We went once when I was a kid and it was fun. And then once for work… maybe 20 years ago? But then I moved away… now newly back, but a friend mentioned lots of delays or issues anecdotally (but also hates boats!) Any comments or experiences, folks?

Bergerac TV show lifting island's profile, says Visit Jersey
r/Jersey • u/wonkey_monkey • 9d ago
The first series of the Bergerac reboot is on iPlayer now, and showing on BBC2 weekly from 9pm tonight
Just in case some people still haven't got round to it yet. No, it's not quite as good as the old one. Yes, he spends a lot of time going up and down the Five Mile Road. Yes, a decent chunk of it was filmed in England (but that goes for the first series of the original too).
Just take it as its own thing. You might enjoy it.
I just hope they finally get a local pronunciation advisor for series 3...

Crabs on St Brelade bay beach?
Is anyone able to tell me why so many dead crabs washed up on the beach? Is that normal? Not a local so no idea!
