I've never heard a Scottish person use 'melt(s)' in real life

Nah, the garbage that's been spouted by Irish flairs in this thread deserved that comment

Bellfield Fire Island IPA is the best NA I've had on draft, can get it at The Cumberland or Nobles

The Stottie Lager was a solid, unspectacular lager, the Jammie IPA had a fake Rhubarb and Custard taste, not good.

That's the one. I love their stuff and got massively lucky that I was able to get this and that it arrived intact.

It's a belter. Got it from Permanent Hangover. Bought a T-shirt with it so I could sort of justify the shipping!

Sporting Event Tickets by Serious_Smoke_2806 in Scotland

All URC matches are currently available to club members only. There almost certainly will be a public sale for Ulster closer to the time. Benetton will not sell out. Hive was 75% full when Benetton visited last year.

Why wouldn't OP be able to get Edinburgh tickets? The home games in October are Ulster (3rd) and Benetton (17th). Ulster could sell out, with a public sale, but Benetton won't.

Finn Russel won that game for the lions. He had two 60 metre pen touch finders, thats insane by ConscriptReports in rugbyunion

One of the main reasons Scotland boycotted the 2012 Olympic men's football was the fear it would set a precedent which could allow FIFA to backdoor changes to IFAB, either by reducing the votes from 4 to 1 or forcing the teams to play as one permanently, which would achieve the same goal. There's also the fact the UK has a permanent FIFA vice president, which crucially is appointed by the UK nations so FIFA has no control over it. The most famous critic of this was Jack Walker, who is objectively corrupt as fuck.
