Editors letter

Hello, you are currently reading the May edition of S41 Local Magazine, I am sure you already knew that!

Today is my birthday (22nd of April) which means I am in a particularly good mood. So far, I have had breakfast in bed, some new tennis trainers, chocolate, a Steven Bartlett personal growth diary (Bekah is trying to tell me something) and watched the tennis highlights on YouTube. I have had worse mornings!

I have now lived in Chesterfield for precisely 44 years. This got me thinking, why not ask artificial intelligence chatbot, Chat GPT, for reasons to live in Chesterfield, Derbyshire and if they are good, I’ll stay a bit longer.

'Chesterfield has a distinctive character with unique sites to explore, such as the famous crooked spire of St Mary and All Saints Church, the Chesterfield Museum and Art Gallery, and the Revolution House.

It has a vibrant market that dates back to the 12th century and offers a variety of goods and services, from fresh produce and flowers to antiques and crafts.

It has a convenient location that allows easy access to the Peak District National Park, Sheffield, Derby, Nottingham, and Manchester by road or rail.

It has a rich cultural and sporting heritage, with venues such as the Pomegranate Theatre, the Winding Wheel Centre, and the football stadium.

It has a strong sense of community and civic pride, with events such as Eat in the Park, and the Chesterfield in Bloom competition.'

Based on this I have decided to stay a bit longer. Splendid work, AI.

I caught up with my old tennis friends recently from Queen's Park Tennis Club where I used to play and coach over food and drinks at Einstein's. One of them was full of praises for the magazine.

"I love the events pages; I circle all the things I want to do for the month, so I am never bored.”

It’s nice to know I am not the only who does this. Thanks for the feedback and top tip, Baz.

Anyway, that’s your lot from me. Have a flick through and get circling.

Peace, love and positivity

Simon, Bekah, Eva and Florie
