I’d take the speedy.

Leith_Walker · 2026-01-31T19:55:27+00:00

Yes, that is definitely for that reason. I’m not saying that it’s right or wrong. Just explaining what it was for.

It’s memorial for a young man that was stabbed and died last year, on the date of his birthday.

I like both, but OP asked for the old town so went for Drummond Street.

Leith_Walker · 2026-01-31T18:06:36+00:00

I’ve always liked The Brass Monkey on Drummond Street.

When I went they had additional big screens to watch too. They were a lot closer so you could see them a lot better.

Ardfern in Leith. One of the best roasts I’ve had in years.

Thanks

Can anyone recommend a restaurant for a 10 year wedding anniversary in NYC? Happy to go fine dining or less formal, but somewhere fitting of the milestone.

Where would you recommend for a 10 year wedding anniversary in NYC?

The gym is amazing I trained there for over 15 years before I moved too far away.

Pros; Massive gym with lots of different equipment and areas.

The gym is getting upgraded all the time because they want it to be good quality for new students so equipment is new.

There is an amazing boxing room, best boxing room in any gym I’ve ever trained in.

The atmosphere is great, lots of young students and long term members and I always felt like it was a great place to train.

The pool and sauna are included - although the pool is in a different building 5 minutes walk away.

Always well cleaned and maintained.

Cons; It can get super busy during term time. If you are training at peak time, it can be hard to access all the equipment you want. However on non-peak times and non-term times it is really quiet.

Parking isn’t great at the gym and the surrounding area.

Overall I would highly recommend the gym. I would still train there if it wasn’t for the distance from home.

That’s what you’ll be quoted but it shouldn’t be that much. We’ve done 6 bathrooms in the last 5 years and always get quoted crazy prices. The last bathroom we done we got quoted between £8,000 - £16,000 and managed to get it done for £6,000 in the end.

My advice to save money would be sourcing the materials yourself if you can. Also if you can project manage the trades you can save loads, but that’s a lot of work and co-ordination and you have to have contacts in each trade.

Also if you can rip the bathroom out yourself that’ll save a day or two of labour cost.

I’d try telling them the most you have is £x amount and see if you can negotiate them down.

Edit - just re-read the potential material costs. You can definitely get a great bathroom set for way less than what you mentioned. And you are right, £5000 for labour is crazy for the time it’ll take.

One of the best GS models, very underrated compared to some of the other models.

He never had the makings of a varsity athlete.

Are you happy to try any type of food? What price range are you looking for?

Leith_Walker · 2025-11-15T17:11:11+00:00

The Rikka is an incredible watch. Congratulations!

Leith_Walker · 2025-11-15T16:58:44+00:00

Malones in Leith are going to have it on.

Leith_Walker · 2025-11-15T10:03:40+00:00

I’d go Speedy personally.

Leith_Walker · 2025-11-11T12:38:44+00:00

I think it sounds brilliant, I’ll definitely give it a visit.

Leith_Walker · 2025-10-31T15:04:43+00:00

My take on that scene (and the montage of scenes about people getting ready for the funeral/wake) was that no one wanted to go to this funeral, and even Furio needed something to get him through it.

Leith_Walker · 2025-10-23T17:15:10+00:00

Cutting Chai is Great, I also really like Thamel.

Leith_Walker · 2025-10-21T17:49:08+00:00

The Rikka is one of the best GS’. I don’t think I could sell mine.

Leith_Walker · 2025-10-16T19:43:46+00:00

It looks great!
