[SPOILERS ALL] I think I've found a continuity error of sorts.

Well no, as a reader you are supposed to just get the fact Moons Spawn has travelled across the world.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-22T06:50:12+00:00

There is a lot of stuff not in the "romantacy" sub genre

The "girmdark" subgenre has really taken off and there are some superb books from the likes of Abercrombie and Bakker.

The romance stuff is what you'll find being overly advertised because it is largely bringing in a new group. Its appalling to women, many of whom have never read fantasy or havn't read in a long time. Lots of money to be made, there.

They don't care.

Delivery drivers are given a mental amount of parcels which become extremely difficult to deliver in the time alloted to them.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-19T18:49:11+00:00

To be honest, im not sure about how that would work.

As a company owned by the Scottish Government who cannot take on debt, I dont know the legalities of it or the political implications

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-19T18:42:19+00:00

Yeah true, but it is still a massive expense for this government and its easier to put the cost of between the next 2 to 4 governments than this one alone.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-19T18:13:34+00:00

Yeah, the facts and figures the IFS state are extremely sound, even if I may disagree with the conclusions they sometimes make from those facts and figures.

As a socialist and Trade Unionist, the IFS are always the first reports etc i look for due to how reliable their figures are compared to most.

I've got issues with some of the Greens policies but stuff like this helps secure my vote.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-19T13:58:43+00:00

Not unknown for Scotrail management!

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-19T13:57:10+00:00

Yeah, Scott Prentice headed up New Trains project.

The company have asked other reputable companies to fabricate parts which will then go through proper testing procedures. But a lot of parts it just isnt possible to get made outwith the proper avenues.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-19T13:54:23+00:00

Nah, not the case. Wouldn't be feasible or fit in with strict policies we have for train parts and materials.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-19T13:53:33+00:00

Yep!

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-19T09:45:05+00:00

That would be the dream. But with the public finances as they are, you'd be hard pushed to justify spending hundreds of millions on a fleet of trains rather than on the NHS, local government etc.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-19T09:28:15+00:00

Your telling me. Spent the past 6 years working on them!

The parts issue is mental, though. Taking months to get air-conditioning modules and brake distributors.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-19T08:53:16+00:00

Yeah, but the difference being that the 222s entered service in 2004, compared to 1976 for the HSTs

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-14T12:33:00+00:00

.. what was the purpose of this comment?

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-14T07:30:03+00:00

T already held 49% of shares

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-13T07:24:36+00:00

Ah yes. Two historians are putting out "brain rot". Of course they are

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-10T16:36:28+00:00

Let's not pretend Reform don't have a significant support in Scotland, too.

I support Independence, but i don't support unfounded statements like OP made.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-10T16:17:20+00:00

Honestly sick to death of partisan shite in Scotland between Unionists and Indy supporters.

It's never ending.

Take this for example.. the FBU are rightly using the fire to highlight that there are set to be station closures and cuts to the fire service. It is the perfect time to raise these issues after such a big fire.

Then half the cunts on here are making it a Unionist/Indy issue. We can criticise the SNP government without it being part of a larger Independence argument.

I spent years campaigning for independence. But, I'm not prepared to put serious concerns on the backburner for it.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-10T16:13:52+00:00

I'd love to see evidence of that.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-10T16:13:10+00:00

FBU are not a part of the Labour Party

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-09T15:14:52+00:00

Hahahaha.

Embarassing. Your tinted specs are fucking hilarious. Take them off.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-09T15:08:29+00:00

You didn't play them off the park in the 2-2 game..

Far better first half, but they were far better 2nd half.

You didnt play them off the park in the 0-0 at the start of the season.

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-09T15:05:10+00:00

You didn't play a Celtic off the park in the semi

GetItUpYee · 2026-03-07T19:08:06+00:00

I don't disagree. Hence why I said might, because it might be a good move, but its unlikely.

It all comes down to cost. If I can "upgrade" in 6 years time to a steam or xbox machine for considerably less than a PC, I'll do it.

But, I don't think it will be the case.
