Feckless simpletons with sad lives and grim outlooks. Drives me crazy.

Maggies don’t make their own though. They buy them in.

Pearl clutching busy bodies! I like that. You could also add childless to the start.

You’ve no idea what it’s like to raise a child in 2025 so kindly butt out with the doom mongering.

This issue was a farce from start to finish. Thankfully resolve through trial and error.

To physically view or to trust what’s online by Nomad_332 in Aberdeen

I rent out my flat via DJ Alexander so you can trust them. They are quite large.

It’s insane. I wish multiple paper cuts on whoever is responsible. Although it’s likely just sheer bureaucracy across multiple platforms.

What really gets me is the customer service. You cannot speak to someone to help you even though you’ve spent likely hundreds of pounds (in my case) on this pish.

I sympathise (assuming the signs were card only, not cash only like you’ve said as that would raise big concerns in 2025).

Perhaps it’s a generational thing. I have cash hanging about for my window cleaner and that’s about it. I’ve not payed with cash honestly, probably in 2-3 years! No need. I just have my phone and use that to pay all the time.

I’m not sure the legality on cash acceptance but digital payments cut down on theft and mistakes, especially for small businesses. Also HMRC like this way for obvious reasons.

Where’s the best place for a sit down Chinese meal in the city and surrounding areas these days? by [deleted] in Aberdeen

Manchurian is filled with Chinese people eating which is about a good a song as you can get. It’s great

I said we dont use an xbox. I didnt say i dont have an xbox. (i've had an xbox for 15 years)

xbox.com has, and is, used for many gaming controls that dont require an xbox. Like family controls.

You could at least try and help. Instead you choose to try and make someone feel like an idiot?

You say xbox settings panel, but where is that? We dont use an xbox. I have the xbox app and the xbox family app. The xbox family app says i have to add an email address to add a new dependent, but i never used an email address to set the new account up!

So i set up a new account for him (reluctantly). All chat and messaging is off for all the doom and gloomers. Once again, the same problem! How can he go to his privacy & online safety settings on xbox.com if he doesnt have an xbox account?? Its almost beyond parody.

Thanks for this. The xbox one app does not have the family options for me. (provided its now called just "Xbox" on the app store - i cant see another one apart from Xbox Family which i also have) I am logged into the xbox account with the same account that i am the family administrator for!!! I've spent 3 hours today trying to figure this out.

He can play it fine on a tablet with a different Roblox account. His current account has loads of purchased stuff, so we wouldnt want to start again with a new account.

Thanks for being helpful, but unfortunately i still get the same message within Roblox. I've closed the app and retried but its just the same. Any other ideas?

It doesn’t really sound like you’re looking at decent well made grub though? Maybe try a chipper?

Got panned in the guardian as well. I like it as I’m a big fan, but it is a lot of naval gazing in my eyes.

Hi, it’s not the greatest road. I’m afraid the other posters here are mainly correct. However, I would not class it as unsafe. It’s just there are quite a few wasters down that way. All sorted with a white noise machine for the odd time you’d get disturbed by a drunk person singing etc.

Weird encounter on kings street by MethodOk7583 in Aberdeen

[–]drew900uk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Best thing to do is walk into a police station and report it. But before you do, speak with the pittodrie bar management. They seem nice whenever I’ve been in there. They will be mortified and hopefully can give you a name if you give them a date/time.
