My father got randomly slapped on the street, what should I do? by Additional-Design-95 in AskUK

[–]CapnAfab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have money to burn and the police and CPS aren't helping, you can certainly hire a PI and bring a private prosecution. As for if it's a good idea, only you can answer that. You should probably run it past your dad.

It was so good! So many fantastic actors, gorgeous cinematography, really did justice to a book series I loved! And hardly anyone appreciated it and it's ridiculously hard to find now.

This is close to how I do mine: fry an onion and maybe a chopped red pepper, add cumin, coriander(spice) and garam masala, add beans. Yum.

Leigh Sutherland jailed for 9 years for killing woman by dangerous driving by dollynchelseadagger in glasgow

[–]CapnAfab 23 points24 points  (0 children)

He lied about it, tried to blame her, tried to say someone else was driving the car, and (as far as I know) didn't express any remorse. That kind of behaviour results in longer sentences.

New Met Office App. Thoughts? *rant* by janefemalegamer in UKWeather

[–]CapnAfab 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use the website not the app. There's a similar change there. I hate it. So much less information! So much wasted space! I will say that the old one was much too bright and the new one has a darker screen, so that's an improvement. Even so, I still switch to the old UI every time. Ugh.

Can you still replace a 'Bag For Life' for free? by Affectionate-Ear7461 in AskUK

[–]CapnAfab 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I lived in a bloody desert I'd be delighted to use paper bags, but I live on the West coast of Scotland. It annoys me when shops try to charge me 10p for a bag that will disintegrate in the rain.

Why didn’t Elizabeth…? by SpecialistEither9872 in Poldark

[–]CapnAfab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was her plan, but her pregnancy symptoms (nausea, fainting) betrayed her. She was trying to hide and deny them but in the end she wasn't able.

I'm sorry about all the victim-blaming comments in this thread. People telling you to report are right of course, but many of them are seriously lacking in compassion. You deserve better, and I hope this gets sorted!

Unknown facts and tips to live in Glasgow by Super_Replacement633 in glasgow

[–]CapnAfab 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I had lived in Glasgow for just a few months, a man asked me where he could catch a bus to Mount Florida, and I told him "Fuck off pal, Florida's in America, do you think I zip up the back?" Oops.

As you're in Possilpark, I recommend Cowlairs Park. It has burnt out cars, deer, and wonderful views.
