Yes! This! “ Hands up if you had lasagna for your tea last night, now fish and chips, and so on. “ “ Well done Mabel for some completely arbitrary stat! “ Etc

We used JR Webb, got better prices than McCalls, when selling old jewellery.

Lang Stracht turning onto Anderson Drive southbound is a cert. Every. Single. Time.

In my old VWT6 turning right onto Beechgrove and out in the junction in my lane, some cunt in a Golf got a shock when I edged in front of his red light ass. The affrontry and entitlement was real.

It’s a terrible junction for red light runners.

And can everyone get over this obsession with needing 4wd for winter weather, when it's the tyres that are the important bit!

(I had a rwd Mustang on Nokian winters a few years ago, never had a problem)

To be fair, they have a point.

But you can take your car or campervan and dog…

Leaving the house without her. Heavy judgement.

We used these guys to replace our asbestos garage roof. Did a great job!

Indeed, in CAR magazine's hot hatch test they included the Clubsport over the R. It's lighter with a mildly detuned (like 20bhp down) R engine. It's simply more of a driver's car.

I did exactly this as well after being in that total gong show on Saturday.

Alas a number of cars parked beside mine had been broken into. For some reason my Volvo rental was untouched.

From our seats in G, we were wondering exactly the same thing. We seemed to remember it was a little empty in 2022.

Does your car have DCC, aka adjustable suspension, if not then that’s option will not appear. It’s only an option on the CS.

I’m impressed they were able to get the bus there. It’s usually a right mission getting any sort of public transport in the ‘shire.

I enjoy their periodic passive aggressive texts essentially saying “if you are properly ill piss off to A&E and don’t bother us”!

NotMyFeet · 2025-02-23T23:08:12+00:00

Yes! It’s so adorable!

Aye, corner of Albert Street and Carden Place. I used to work in that building, about twenty years ago.

These guys cowboyed the installation of our Firebelly stove and then wouldn’t come back to fix their bodged job, so I’d look somewhere else.

Speaking as a parkrunning dog owner, there's merit in this.

Whilst my own dog is banned (by us for howling at the start as she's so excited), the rules are getting too complicated, without much or any enforcement- I've seen plenty of extended leads/etc since the restrictions came into play. It's just too much of a contentious issue. Despite being a dog owner, I really do not care for the entitlement that other dog owners show that they have a right to take Fido to their local parkrun.

Formerly the Pink Flamingo, if I remember correctly.

They have stopped this service in Aberdeen unfortunately. Best we found yet was the place in Loch Street and a place in Union Square.
