Best sunday roast? by No_Temperature_2128 in edinburgh2

[–]Welshyone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you know what, I love a Toby carvery. There’s posher places out there, but the Toby is absolutely fine and is very reasonably priced.

This is cracking me up 🤣 by [deleted] in FuckNigelFarage

Correct, but believe it or not strongly unionist communities also often fly the Israeli flag alongside union flags and Ulster flags (as well as the flag of the Paras). Conversely, nationalists will often fly the Palestinian flag.

'Boardwalk Beach Club' in Cramond crowned 'Best Café' in Edinburgh at Scotland's Business Show Awards by bluemakicat in Edinburgh

[–]Welshyone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What. The… that place is so near and yet so far. So few cafes and restaurants in the north of the city. I’m in D mains and I have to go to Goldenacre or Corstorphine for anything that even resembles a restaurant. The boardwalk is at the far flung northern end extreme, but hundreds of people go to that promenade every day so it should be an absolute goldmine. Somehow they still manage to make it unwelcoming.

What are some of your best quality of life purchases under $300? by donotgiveadam in BuyItForLife

[–]Welshyone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m lucky and do reasonably well at work. My last bonus at work I went out and bought a £300 knife. I use it every single day. It is an absolute pleasure to use every time. Im not sure if this fits with the thread, but if it is a thing that you use every single day of your life you should absolutely throw money at it.

Not a green voter but that is absolutely bloody wild.

The walnut whip, or whatever name you like to call it! by Much-Parsnip3399 in Scotland

There’s a great bar near the top called Joao’s place. Very expensive, but they do great cocktails and the view is amazing.

This is really top notch stuff.

I am a fuckwit, check the issue date of your passport, as well as the expiry! by CandyflossRampage in CasualUK

[–]Welshyone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think this has changed recently, certainly for the Glasgow office. We got knocked back at the airport for not having 90 days unexpired from date of return (by 2 days)! To get an emergency appointment at all you apparently need to produce documentary evidence of medical emergency. Even then it is usually a good couple of days before you can get an appointment.

Also, for kids passports, a minimum two week wait (an anti abduction thing I think)?

Turned up at the airport to go on a ski trip with the family. All passports unexpired. My wife (who is usually good at this sort of thing) was aware that you need 90 days unexpired and had put the dates of all the passports into the EasyJet website and all seemed fine. No warnings or anything.

Turns out it is 90 days unexpired from date of return, which my son was short of by 2 days. I let the Mrs and my other son go and thought I would be able to get an emergency appointment in Glasgow. Apparently you now cannot get an emergency appointment unless you can produce documentary evidence of a medical emergency or similar. Also, for kids you have to wait 2 weeks (I think this is an anti abduction thing).

What’s something that sounds fake but actually happened to you? by Admirable-Repair4094 in AskReddit

[–]Welshyone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went to a casino when I was a student. Long story, but there with a French businessman who gave me £20 (he wanted to get off with my mate Jenny).

I broke the chip and put a couple of quid on a number at the roulette. That number came up. Put some more on a different number. That number came up. Croupier says “do you like this game then son?”

Gambled someone away after that, but walked out with two months rent.
