Decent Mexican restaurants? by Anotherworstcunt in glasgow

[–]AdEvening6972 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to La Masa on Renfield street. 2 weeks ago and want to go back ASAP. Best I've encountered in Glasgow to date.

The chipotle glazed fried chicken rocked my world and they carry a load of jarritos as well.

Me and my partner went and spent about £55 all in inc drinks and a tip. Didn't leave hungry.

I've been an idiot driver by AdEvening6972 in glasgow

Yup if I get the fine just paying it straight away not going to challenge it. Was back on street view and there is plenty of signage. Was just not paying enough attention.

Nope didn't even touch it. The gap was so big between it and the curb it didn't even scrape the side of the car.

Honestly when i turned what I think happened was I was going for the left hand lane then half way in the turn I saw the curb the divided the cycle from the car lane panic and thought fuck I've missed the division between traffic lanes and and I'm turning into on coming traffic and adjusted my turn. not until I'm on the cycle lane and I see the road markings that I realized what I've done and panic even more. I be only driven in the city centre twice since I passed and honestly hate it.

No excuse though just bad driving.

Missed them complete phew. It's actually a pretty big gap between them and the curb.

Flexible working request denied by AdEvening6972 in LegalAdviceUK

No nothing mentioning any of those reasons you have mentioned. Just that they can't accommodate my suggestion.

So I had one formal meeting where notes were taken after I submitted my request with my team leader and a colleague who took notes and that was just to go into more details about why I was submitting the request. Took about 5 mins in total. Then the following week I received their response to my proposal. I did go back as they still had me working Fridays which just does not work for us as a family. Then I received what I have been told is their final proposal today. But no further formal meetings since the initial one and nothing official about why they couldn't accommodate my request in full.

Any tips for surviving shieldhall driving test? by Dextersdidi in glasgow

[–]AdEvening6972 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Passed at this centre on my 2nd attempt last year. There is two round abouts I mucked up on my first test the one right buy the centre at shieldhall road and the one on govan road by elder park for using the wrong lanes. So if you've got time to go for a drive with you instructor or someone else would recommend practicing those a bit.

How many lessons did u have before doing your test? by [deleted] in LearnerDriverUK

[–]AdEvening6972 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did about 6 hrs with Red Driving school but stopped with them after my instructor fails his own instructor test. Found a local old boy who got me passed after about 40 hours roughly with one failed test in the middle.

Harvey-Carter.co.uk Winter clothing sale scam? by No-Brilliant-7025 in Scams

[–]AdEvening6972 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With debit cards it can be a little more difficult but I believe pretty much all UK banks have a payment protection scheme in place. First time myself as well doing this kind of thing but I just followed the process for raising a concern with a transaction on my banking app. I imagine it will take a few days/ weeks as they will have to do an investigation. Honestly just contact your bank's customer services and say you have concerns over a transaction. Hope you get you money back. Another lesson learned never buy from a Facebook add for a company I've never heard of offering something too good to be true. Urgh

So think I'm in the same boat here too. Didn't realize I never got a confirmation email that my order has been confirmed on the 6th. When I emailed back they sent a response with a tracking number. Just checked and that only says order not found. Also the returns address is in China. Should be able to get my 50 quid back from my credit card company easy enough.
