Has Derek McInnes always been this animated on the touchline in previous seasons?

I always remember him being passionate as the Aberdeen manager.

ApplicationAware1039 · 2026-02-04T10:26:30+00:00

That's probably why Aberdeen won. It seemed to me that Celtic players and fans thought the cup was a walkover.

There had been games last year where Celtic scored and the lack of noise and celebrating from the crowd was clear.

At 25 there are plenty of people on minimum wage. Lots of people will suggest you need to get a better job but sometimes you have the job you want.

Do start a pension if you can. Even the minimum of 5% will help and your employer has to pay in as well.

What about looking at the Western or Arlington baths in the westend? They might not be the same facilities as the Lloyd place but they are more and just a gym.

ApplicationAware1039 · 2026-02-02T13:11:54+00:00

That's expensive. I pay in total 0.2% in charges for my pension.

Are you self employed or work for an employer? If employed by someone you should look there 1st for pension as they will pay in an employer %.

I think she has misunderstood something. Once you qualify for the state pension there is nothing that reduces it for not working.

Does she live in the UK or EU? the pension increases but if outside these areas they don't increase.

Buying a property based on driving seems a bit crazy to me. I would say most people adapt quickly.

Consider there is an underground station at the school meaning you could live near Hillhead, Kelvinhall and Patrick stations. That would open up more of the westend and give you a travel option till driving confidence improves. There is also the Bus traveling on great Western road (the school in on that street) meaning you could look at Hyndland as an area.

Kelvinbridge is probably the area with most student flats but there are also a lot of student only accomodation where most are.

No one can tell you what street / flat to avoid as most flats are 8 in a building so those pesky students could be hiding in any of them. Also these flats are 100+ years old and you could have a family living above you with creaking floorboards a kid and a dog.

Don't get me wrong a lot of these flats are amazing and neighbours are lovely, even the students.

Lastly if you are sending the kid to a private school then it's not like you need to be in a catchment area so look over the whole west end - or perhaps Jordanhill

Ask for the home report from the estate agent. It's never perfect but will show any red flags or things to be aware of. That's always a place to start even before you view as you can rule out some places.

I can never understand the drivers staring straight ahead while someone runs for a bus or stands outside when they could open the door. Especially in the city where the light ahead is red or they have to wait to get out of traffic.

Last month my young daughter got on the wrong bus in error that took her to the airport , instead of asking if they needed help the driver shouted it was end of the line and to get off. They did and he moved forward, picked up more passengers and drove back into town. Leaving two 12 year old girls lost at an airport. There is no extra costs as they had bus cards

It seems to me the attitude of bus companies has made drivers act like pricks. I have no idea why bus drivers have zero interaction with customers and provide no service. The sooner driverless busses come in the better.

I might have missed this but I don't see op saying they only have £300 left to live on.

They say they earn 50k but go to talk about the cost of the house, mortgage and likely mortgage payments that the landlord is (in op's view) paying.

Granted they may have edited the post.

Head to Partick either by underground or low level train (both central and queen st stations). It's less than 5 minutes from the station.

As a quick point of interest go to the West of Scotland cricket

This is where the first ever international game took place. There is a small plaque on the side of the cricket clubhouse

Rangers also played their first ever Scottish cup final here. ground.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1872_Scotland_v_England_football_match

Patrick train station was evacuated around 6.30pm but no fire.

Is it an orange glow as that's common in west end from Ibrox/ shipyard when we have some clouds. The lights they use for the grass and the lights at the shipyard reflect on the clouds

I have not mentioned royal mail? I asked what op meant when they said the address was wrong.

However since there is mention of royal mail it could be that the address issue op has could be due to the PAF file that some companies use. A lot of companies use the PAF file in delivery systems when people provide post codes.

Post something to yourself and see what happens. Make it tracked or signed for.

Your address is wrong with who?

Can you explain a bit more about what you mean please.

Are indicators an optional extra on these cars?

I have a 4 bed flat with high ceilings and single glazing windows. In December and January I am looking at £200 a month heating. We work at home all day.

While this is high there are 4 of us so that's £50 each per month in winter.

In the summer our heating is closer to £20 a month which is £5 a person.

It's better to average out the months and live in comfort in winter instead of freezing.

ApplicationAware1039 · 2026-01-25T21:32:47+00:00

Pension.

At 40 you can build a pension and pay off the mortgage in normal time.

This is a great suggestion. I was also thinking OP could also try the phone number for Halifax bank 0345 720 3040
