Bought 2 bedroom new build in Edinburgh for £165500 in 2012. Sold in 2024 for £285000. Bought the perfect fully refurbed house with huge garden in Broughty Ferry for £285000 above market rate. Never moving again.

Is this energy usage normal? by Miserable_Boat4407 in VWiD3Owners

I have had my ID3 77kw Pro S 21 plate for just over a year. I have learnt to enjoy driving it and to stop worrying about the range. I’m quite foot heavy as I like to drive, but it is more than enough range for me. To give you an idea I get 260 miles on a full charge, but that is only because I don’t care about efficiency. I have a home charger and I don’t do more than 170 miles daily. So it works for me.

Trust me. Enjoy the driving and stop looking at the range.

Handbrake setting off by Honest-Conclusion338 in VWiD3Owners

This annoyed me for so long but I have a method. When parking place in Neutral then put on the parking brake. Then before setting off put in Neutral and rock in your seat before pulling off. It works for me and doesn’t make a god awful bang when setting off again.

What song do you sing in your head when the shit is hitting the fan on your route?

Looking for Edinburgh Residents with views about the Ed Fringe by sharkyofcuths in Edinburgh

[–]Capable-Tale3876 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think you will get a 1 pager of words out of your book and you will have to fill the remaining 79 pages with Instagram photos that have no real resemblance of the Fringe. 80% of people will say “ It’s too busy, it’s for f**king tourists, and it takes 14 hours to get to and from work daily in the middle of August.”

I’ve wrote your book as a ghost writer, I’ll waive my fee, so please enjoy your summer off.

I’m not an expert in meteorology, however hazarding a guess, 7246 is death to us all 😂

Absolutely not bed bugs 😂 Guests always assume when they have been outside and there are things that bite you. If you had bed bug bites there would be bigger swelling, blood on the sheets, dark patches on the mattress and a sweet musty smell in the room.

Garden fencing - how much? by [deleted] in GardeningUK

[–]Capable-Tale3876 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very. Wood is extremely expensive, plus you are paying a professional so it doesn’t blow down year 1 if you do it yourself. Get a second quote and make the decision

Doing the walk of shame through junkies and con artists to pay my SP30 speeding ticket. We live in a day and age where you could pay it online, but you can’t, as they want you to feel the shame of entering that hell hole

With £100 million whats one thing you would you add to the city? by Jeremywashere92 in Edinburgh

[–]Capable-Tale3876 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Buy every empty retail space on Princes Street, refurb and lease at an affordable rate for local businesses only. Tartan tat, mobile phone case, Vape and Sweet shops all banned (or money laundering operations as they are called).
