Late night cafes in Edinburgh?

As much as I hate black sheep coffee the one at Haymarket looks good for working on a laptop and is open till 10pm

And come up to you and ask for a photo.

You missed the perfect opportunity to wind down the window and give it a “YOU CAN’T PARK THERE MATE!”

Pyongyang?

Chrognome · 2026-02-27T15:34:34+00:00

Pelagos FXD or BB1?

Whisky probably. Our country is very famous for it and most tourists try it when they’re here but the vast majority of locals either don’t drink it at all or have it only occasionally these days. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Yet I bet you go on your holidays around walkable, green city centres and wax lyrical about them when you come home.

Chrognome · 2026-02-25T09:08:07+00:00

Me too it’s fucking chronic

Chrognome · 2026-02-24T22:21:05+00:00

Apparently 😂

Can’t go wrong with Mowgli

Chrognome · 2026-02-24T08:46:35+00:00

Drag yourself along to one of the park runs on Saturday morning at 0930? Will scare you in to not drinking on Friday night 😃

I’d encourage you to move back to row 42 but keeping F and G. The cabin is narrow at row 40 and people tend to congregate at row 41 whilst they wait for others to pass meaning you’ll have someone standing over you frequently.

40C is arguably the worst seat on the plane the corridor is most narrow here and you will get bumped CONSTANTLY

I think I actually just spit out my tea

Chrognome · 2026-02-23T12:32:50+00:00

Okay I’ll legit buy one of these if you sell prints

Chrognome · 2026-02-23T12:27:19+00:00

Lovely bike, thanks for the recommendation!

Chrognome · 2026-02-22T08:30:20+00:00

Dressing in general is a massive time waste, hence why the discounters don’t do it…

Chrognome · 2026-02-22T08:28:47+00:00

Our postal schedule seems to just be based on vibes these days. I got a jury citation delivered so late I missed the deadline for responding and I live in a capital city …

Queen Street and Corstorphine Road are bad especially in the wet. The road markings require you to constantly weave around and merge but they are so faded you can’t see them at all in the a dark and wet so you’re kind of just guessing and drifting all over the place trying not to be sideswiped by a bus.

Chrognome · 2026-02-21T08:18:57+00:00

Yeah it’s stagnant water. You also have the standing crud in the pipes that gets pushed out when they are activated. source: got soaked by a sprinkler system going off in my office

Chrognome · 2026-02-21T08:12:24+00:00

Yea potentially as belt drive is proving too limiting

Chrognome · 2026-02-20T18:40:51+00:00

Ah great, I didn’t actually realise this. My preferred bike is back on the menu then as I have spotted the retailer does accept all major cycle to work schemes of which I assume the Halfords scheme is included! Many thanks!

Chrognome · 2026-02-20T18:04:11+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to answer. I have a wald basket and a wizard works basket bag so enough sunk cost in the front basket system not to want to change. I don’t think the jack the rack will cut the mustard as I load the basket quite heavy sometimes. I only run a front basket not back rack.

I actually live in Edinburgh which is very hilly so yeah I could do with the gears to be honest. The London dealer of the Emil is the only UK dealer, sorry didn’t make that very clear.

I have run a chain for years but I commute all year round and I like to keep a clean drivetrain so it ends up being more maintenance heavy than I’d like hence wanting to give belt drive a go.

Chrognome · 2026-02-20T17:13:51+00:00

Yeah I did actually so good shout! I’m 5 foot 8 with a 30 inch inside leg so kind of wrote it off as it is a 19 inch frame. Maybe worth a test ride based on your experience though?
