Hi all, can anyone recommend a person that can help me learning Italian? Started off using Duolingo but would prefer a real person to chat with. If this wrong forum please feel free to move.
Died today aged 83. Thanks for the memories Tina
Strange question but does anyone know if you can get the rubber pellet marks out of football kits? Tried a few things and nothing seems to work🤷
I’m going to New York for Josh Taylor’s fight, just for a few days and looking for some tips. I’ve been a couple of times before so done all the obvious tourist stuff. For this flying visit I’m looking for some hidden gem bars and food places. Where’s the best street food, music bars, cocktails,...
Has anyone received a refund from their bank for historic bank charges on overdrafts? Out of the blue I received a letter from my bank telling me that they had looked at charges on my account back to 2012 and decided they were unfair and unreasonable and are refunding the charges plus 8%...
This is a sore one, gutted to hear he has passed away. The Smiths were for me one of the greatest bands these islands ever produced and his bass playing was a vital part of their sound. When I think of 80s music it’s The Smiths that instantly spring to mind. I’ll be playing a few tracks tonight.
Daft question but see if your getting an electrician to check out the wiring in a property do you need to have an electricity supply into the property connected. I get it needs to be switched off if their doing the work but to test it (EICR) does it need to be on. Thanks.
Got Sky Broadband and also 2 x Sky boosters however my home office seems to be a dead spot and causing me issues for work teams calls etc My home office is converted from internal garage. I have tried products that route signal through plug socket but they just never seem to be any good. ...
Can anyone give me an idea of how much it would cost to trim this rowan tree? It’s approx 25 to 30 ft and I want to lop off about 10 to 12 ft. There are two telephone cables running through the upper part of the tree and the branches at that height are quite slender. I want to get someone who knows...
I have six tickets for Proclaimers at Leith Links on The Saturday. Looking to swap for Sunday tickets if anyone has Sunday tickets and prefers Saturday please PM to arrange. Thanks
Thought some of you might appreciate this track from Gutterblood and Bonnie Prince Bob - a band comprising of Hibees! :flag: A few early reviews from some well known folks: “Makes the Pistols’ God Save The Queen sound like a tame Royalist ballad. Forget Single of the Week. This is Single of...
Every year I plant a few potatoes , onions and peas . This year my potatoes are Queen's , Casablanca's, kerrs pinks , rooster's , Sharpe's express and Maris Pipers as well . I'm hoping to add one more different type of potato as well . I have tried growing cabbage without any luck as they...
Hello, Apologies for this post. However, if anyone is selling a pair of tickets (or more) to The Proclaimers in Leith on Saturday June 17th can you please PM me. Thanks very much! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
A truly inspirational human being. RIP Apologies but he surely deserves a thread of his own.
Does Hibs.net contain any Hole-in-one claimants? I've never been the best golfer in the world. My personal record score is 99 around Craigentinny Golf Course in 2005. This is the first and only time I ever went round an 18-hole golf course in less than one hundred. At other sports, I have...
Anyone know of a garage in Edinburgh with a tyre bath? I have a puncture, which my usual garage can't find as they don't have a tyre bath. The tyre is otherwise fine, so doesn't need replaced yet. They suggested another place, which I tried, only to be to told that they got rid of theirs...
I was browsing the site yesterday after the game on my Samsung A52 phone, when it crashed out. Now, all I get is an error message "web server is returning an unknown error". "Error code 520". I can get on fine on my laptop, kindle fire and my wife's similar phone. I've switched off and on and...
Football programmes, records, tv box sets, stamps, train numbers, watches, ties etc etc. I was going through my dad's old record collection earlier; it was emotional. I was just thinking my mum never collected things. I collect things (football programmes, watches and books are my thing) but my...
Does anyone know how to get the service light off on a 2017 Dacia Duster? Service reset isn't available in the UK versions and tried obd2. As it's not a fault it's not picking it up and only the one ECU available to read. My mechanic couldn't find it this morning and YouTube not useful
I realise that it's a long shot, but I wonder if anyone can help me with the name of a band. They were on the scene around the same time as The Automatic (What's that coming over the hill...Monster) and I used to confuse the two of them. They didn't last long, probably had 1 hit, but I saw...
As a long distance courier I would be lost without McDonalds Drive Thru's, and Greggs and KFC's at service stations. Therefore fastfood is not something I just enjoy, but after 8 hours of driving along a motorway (M25, M1, M6, M74, M8), it is something that I dream about. I have even researched...
Anybody know if there is the slightest prospect of Edinburgh having one constructed?
For those that love history discussion I am going to post some old prints, paintings, photographs, and film, which display historic events that have taken place in Edinburgh. I am going to upload the images one at a time, as I tried to upload a total of eight images previously, but I rather...
my mates daughter is turning 3 in a week or so. Struggling of things to get her. Anyone on here got any recommendations? Have seen hungry hungry hippos or a pop up play tent online but just wondered if anyone had any other thoughts? Budget between £10-20
Anyone go to Jock's do last night, tenerife nights?:greengrin If so how was it, gutted not to be able to make it. :boo hoo:
Not a trick question... They go forward at 1am now. Has that always been the case? I seem to remember in my student days (10-15 years ago), it was 2am it went forward. Likewise it went back at 2am in October.
Does anyone know of any bargains to be had? Failing that tips on what to get/avoid 🤔

I remember someone, Stu from Nottingham I think, used to post photos of pitifully weak local newspaper stories and I loved them so I thought it might be fun to start a thread for that very purpose. So, here's my starter for ten.
I have to say I'm quite ambivalent about this although it's had a few memorable moments throughout the decades. I've just heard the UK entry on the wireless and by god its awful! Surely it's been written/composed by AI, no human would admit to this abysmal mishmash of plinky plonky, da da...
Wife quite fancies one but Im not too sure to be honest, Ive read many mixed reviews. My Brother has one and has now gotten used to it especially with less wires and built in sound bar. What he doesnt like is that with his previous tv he could get Premier Sports but much to his angst when he tried...
Not only are they destroying a perfectly good pint but they have Qatar price's as well 😡. https://www.donegaldaily.com/2023/03/15/national-worlds-most-expensive-pint-of-guinness-hard-to-swallow/
As a counter to the 'Things that are true' thread, I thought it might be interesting to have one about commonly believed myths. George W. Bush never said the problem with the French is they have no word for entrepreneur. That story was entirely false and was made up by Shirley Williams,...
My daughter would like a proper camera for her 16th birthday in a couple of weeks. Don't know the 1st thing about a decent one. Anyone know of or are selling one or best place to go to get this in Edinburgh. Any help on this matter would be appreciated.

I saw a few mentioned on a thread in the holy ground forum but thought it would be worthwhile starting one on here. What are your favourite past and present ? Its a Knockout and Krypton Factor were really good shows, Bullseye was a classic too as were the prizes 🤣 The Price is Right was...
I've been watching a few episodes of ' Only fools and horses ' and after all these years they still make me laugh , I do have many more I like though for me this one's my favourite and is comedy at its best . What comedy sitcoms do you enjoy?
Hi All, and apologies for a non football thread. Myself and a couple of buddies are turning 50 this year and investigating Edinburgh venues for hosting around 100-150 folks. Ive seen options on the official site, Edinburgh Suite, Gallery and Captains Lounge. I wonder if anyone would share their...
