A few years ago, Phil Cunningham had a programme on the Radio where celebrities chose five songs which were milestones in their lives. What are yours and why? Jailhouse Rock - Elvis Presley. My first ever purchased 78 rpm single. Love Me Do - The Beatles. Changed the course of music...
Turned 39 last week, need something else in my life, I'm thinking home brew beer and cider, anyone dabbled in this?
Having managed to get lucky and secure a pair of the Adidas Dublin reissues from Size this morning, it got me wondering how many other 'sneakerheads' there are on here? I guessing there will be a few......

I'm back for a whistlestop weekend and looking to get my haircut tomorrow morning. I'm having lunch at 12 before the match so the only window is in the morning - does anyone have a recommended reasonable barber (just for a guy's haircut) on ER/Abbeyhill. I know there's plenty of them but...
His guitar sound and style were the backbone of AC/DC, i guess Bon will be waiting on the Highway to Hell with open arms http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-42037566
OK, you can have one beer that you take with you to a desert island (an endless supply, but just the one brand) - what are you having?
Just a wee heads up for anyone that can take advantage of this, Borders Buses are charging a fiver for a Borderless Day Ticket which allows unlimited use across all their services until 26/11.
Where is the best place to buy a first car nowadays? The laddie is 17 soon, nowhere seems to have anything for under a £1000 like there was not too many years ago.
Obviously Ive done a City center night out many times. My brother is coming up with me this weekend for the Dundee game (he usually makes 2 or 3 or 4 matches a season) and we're planning a few drinks in the town center, anyone got any recommendations for pubs/bars? Maybe somewhere a little...
On Sunday about 4 my wife said she haf a client interested in some business and was meeting for coffee ten miles away. i discovered on her return much later she had no paperwork and couldn't n the info available done anything at all. Basically a call or text would have been enough. later...
The getting old thread got me thinking. We must be a fair few on here that are no longer living within spitting distance of Easter Road. I was thinking about all the things I miss living away from home. My main one is proper pubs, I try to explain this to Swedes and they look at me like I have two...
I've just been listening to The Lonely Shepherd by Zamfir and the Blade Runner love theme by Vangelis and they're both truly beautiful. If we were to make a Hibs.net playlist of beautiful tracks, which would you nominate? PS. Listen to the songs I mentioned when you're ready to be chilled.
Gina Yashere John Bishop Ricky Gervais Michael McIntyre
It was with no small degree of relief that I realised I'll be out of the country on business on the date of this year's work Xmas night out. Am I alone in feeling, at best, a total sense of ennui with this "tradition"? Here in Switzerland there's generally less of the mass drinking and...
Any hibs.netters able to point me in the direction of 1 bedroom flats to rent in Edinburgh? Currently renting a room but needing my own space again.
Anyone done the SXSW festival in Austin Texas before? Persuaded the wife to go next year as on my bucket list. So looking into the logistics and availability now. Any help or advice would be much appreciated. Is it similar in set up to the Fringe with venues dotted all over the town? It sounds...
Has anyone done these three destinations together recently. Ideally 4 night stay in each in the order I have posted. Looking for who you booked/planned it with or whether you done all yourself on net. Cheers.
There is a great little self filmed diary from the Doors on Sky Arts on demand. If you don't like the Doors then it might not be up your street but some of the songs are tremendous. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

I read somewhere that half of global internet searches are for porn, but cute animal videos must be up there too. Facebook and Twitter are full of them and some are very enjoyable. This one, which I saw just now on FB, really appeals to me. The intelligence of the dog is admirable. You...
We are off out this weekend to buy the laddie a car (he's paying). If we go to a dealer , can I still expect a discount on the screen price ? Cash is no longer King I believe. Would it be beneficial to take finance in be hope of getting a bigger discount then paying it off within the 14 days ? ...
Seeing as we have a few music threads I thought I would start this on songs you hate or found annoying. I will get ball rolling with: Word Up - Cameo or Gun How Bizzare - OMC All songs - M People
Anybody listen to the podcast? they are doing a live show in Edinburgh soon, got a ticket for it, can't wait. Bob Mortimer is a genius.
You ever get say an email from say Dominos or anyone only to get the next day an apology email saying mistake in last one. Am I cynical to think they do this actually on purpose to send you 2 emails advertising themselves.
Hi guys, who's the best airline to fly direct to New York from Edinburgh with these days? Had planned on booking with Delta but been told they don't have IFE (In-flight entertainment systems) on this route. Anyone flew with Delta, is this true? Thanks.
My memory is getting worse. Have a listen to the drums on St Vincent's song, "Every tear disappears". Where have I heard that beat before? It's bugging the life out of me.
I'm looking for some help completing a slang A-Z alphabet for words used specific to Edinburgh/East coast that start with the letters A,E,I,M,O,Q,U,V,Y,Z. Ive got loads for the other letters, but stuck with these.
Hi guys, what's the best train station to use to get to the shopping centre in Livingston? Know its near the football stadium and its a bit of a trek, so which ones best? Or which one is easier to catch a bus or taxi from to get to the centre, thanks.
Got a letter today from this horrible company telling me my discount ends in December and I need to renew my BT Broadband contract to keep the discount. Hate being manipulated this way. Especially by an organisation that constantly takes the p***. Maybe I'm stuck with it. Does anyone have any...
I've started to notice that all new phones seem to come with wireless charging. I've never had a problem charging my phone, and I don't need the option of charging my phone when I'm out for a meal or a drink. It's a case of solving a problem that doesn't exist imo. I charge my phone when I'm...
Anyone got any favorite soundtracks or bands that you've discovered on the back of watching something? Trainspotting has a great soundtrack, especially for those of us who were in our late teens at the time. Twin Peaks new season has had some good tunes on it, got me listening to the...
I'm currently nursing a broken wrist and my GP has suggested that I take different stuff to help the bone heal better. This includes 3 types of homeopathy, each in a different coloured container/tube thing. To make sure that I don't miss one or take any twice I quickly established an order. ...
I've been a big fan of this show for years now, but I didn't know that the upcoming series has been filmed without Edd China. Apparently he walked out as he wasn't happy with the way the production was changing. It's a real shame as the the 2 of them worked well together. Hopefully it's not the...
Who has your favourite avatar? I'd go for SRH's avatar (sadly now changed) of Scarlett Johansson giving two fingers. :top marks (Source, SRH?)
Glasgow sesh today, not starting till after the old firm game, anyone know of any good central boozers where we will definitely avoid Huns?
Have to admit, and much to my own annoyance, I'm a stickler for it myself, although I do slip up regularly, but hopefully not spoken only written. I get unnecessarily agitated when I see misspelled words and endless sentences with no punctuation or paragraphs. I'm no expert, and certainly not...
The 17 year old boy is hoping to pass his driving test soon and will be looking for a semi decent reliable car for getting him to work and uni. We've been pricing up motors and insurance.:greengrin: Anyone have any advice on the subject? I'm trying to temper his expectations as I'll be...
