I’m sure many of us are aware of Social Bite, the cafe (now with a few branches) set up to help homeless people, with many of the staff being homeless or formerly homeless themselves. I was in this morning for the first time in a while and was pleased to find the standard as good as ever - a good...
One never really rated those oven chips but I suppose they did bail me out of a few drunken nights munchies.
http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/football-hooligan-heads-scotland-recruitment-11422487 Apparently targetting Hibs and Hearts fans for recruitment, there's leafleting in opposition to them at this Saturday's game.
Sacha Baron Cohen. ****ing genius, gets his "victims" to drop the mask quicker than any waterboarding interrogator.
A friend/colleague of mines is looking to buy a new build house that will be getting released in the next few weeks with completion estimated May 2019. The builder is insisting the sale of his current house is completed before he buys the new build. Is this normal practice? The buyer has a sound...
https://www.google.de/amp/s/m.huffingtonpost.co.uk/amp/entry/bookmarks-socialist-bookshop-attacked_uk_5b670509e4b0b15abaa4341b/ I could have added this to a number of threads in the holy ground but feel it deserves a thread of its own. The far right are feeling more empowered everyday. Brexit,...
I fancy trying their Morrocan spiced veggie haggis but can’t find it anywhere. I’m up in Edinburgh next weekend so wondered if there’s anywhere in town that stocks their whole range.
Was wondering if any .netters have been successful with ppi? Got a claim going through just as in my younger years I took stuff out without much thought so thought why not try. Was also told by someone at RBS (unofficially) they will try to call you three times and if they don't answer they...
Watched some of those images and I’m amazed he got a not guilty.. I’ve got a feeling it’s because of who he is.. if that had been you or I that done that I have a funny feeling we may have been supping porridge this morning.. thoughts anyone..

Westminster on lockdown this morning - a male driver appears to have driven a silver Ford Focus into a group of cyclists and pedestrians at speed (being described as "seemingly deliberate" by witnesses), before smashing into one of the security bollards.
John Houston of the Blue Planet Society suggests that the art of stone piling is a danger to wildlife and bad for the environment. The report on BBC is suggesting it should be banned. Words fail me.
I have (self diagnosed) Sciatica. There are a million online sites but has anyone here experienced it and can recommend anything? I was in hospital for a week which was mostly spent in bed which I think may have kicked it off.
now that our United Kingdom has decided to bolt from Europe, and the fact that Brexit means Brexit, does this open up lots of opportunities for smaller European Nations like Malta, Albania Belarous Estonia etc for entering more teams for the Eoropa compatitions? As Scotland Wales N.Ireland and...
Carole King is amazing on any level but this raw version of one her many classics is the best I’ve heard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiZrdLaEgNs Must be others from left field. Aztec Camera’s “Jump” might be one.
A charity fears a British-Iranian woman held in Iran could have her prison sentence doubled following remarks made by the foreign secretary. Boris Johnson told a Commons committee Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe was "training journalists" when she was arrested at Tehran Airport in 2016. The Thomson...
I have a sign Hibs strip from around the time Mikey played for us. Most of the signatures are illegible to me. I was just wondering if it might be a good idea (or not) for netters to photo and post the signatures of players they have (and know) so that folk like me can match the players to the...
Currently on holiday and have a Sainsbury’s bank currency card which I loaded 1k euro on to it. I have just taken out 100 euros but I go onto the balance and it has taken out 119.99. Does anyone know the reason why?
I must say that I find all the attempts to claim this is somehow dangerous pretty unpalatable. Fair enough if you don’t agree with it, but when we have the sun setting fire to one and the tories wheeling out some obscure supposed expert to say it increases the chances of cot death, it’s taking...
Why has this story appeared? It's a total non-story, but it seems to me that it's designed to make sure that as many euro-sceptics as possible don't vote Labour. http://m.bbc.co.uk/news/election-2015-32566522
Those of you with Irish connections might find the episode with Boy George interesting.
Does he belong in jail or are his civil liberties being breached?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-edinburgh-east-fife-38170966 Anybody else think that RBS are using the online banking as a convenient excuse? They closed a branch near me saying that walk-in customers were down 11%. What about the rest? Did someone at a management meeting ask, "How can...
Did anyone get it in the ballot? All my friends have had emails to say they didn't get it, I've still not heard. When I login it says you're entered in the ballot still.
Despite having visited most Scottish islands, I've never quite made it out to the Western Isles, despite having had it in mind for ever. I have the chance of a few days off next week and if the weather stays settled might go for it. I'm thinking maybe break us in gently by just going to either...
What was everyone’s favourite record shop back in the olden days? Ards on Junction Street used to be my go to shop for the latest LPs. There was always and old English sheep dog(if memory serves me right) called Snooker sitting outside.I also used to be fond of the Golden Oldies shop at...
Anyone given this a proper go? I started his fundamentals course yesterday. That lasts for 10 weeks. My mates tried to warn me off it as he was pretty overwhelmed by what he calls kundalini.
I see Sir Cliff is getting £850k from the BBC for them filming the cops raiding his house. We can't afford hospitals yet there's plenty dosh available to splash out to millionaires. Mind you, it was a henious crime. Imagine someone filming your house without your consent. Hinging's too guid for...
Alright Guys, As with most of the U.K. I am fully onboard with gin nowadays. What’s everyone’s favourite gin and your favourite tonic? I’m looking to expand my palette. I’m a big fan of Ophir (slight spiced peppery taste).

We’ve got an apple tree but lots of the fruits go to waste. Only so much apple crumble/pie that you can take Thinking of making cider but don’t want to go to town on kit. What would i need to start off and what sort of dosh would folks recommend?
Does anyone know where I can get a Hibs money clip? I've just bought a few items from Hibs direct but none there. I've got a perhaps needless mistrust of ebay so haven't even considered it. Any other ideas?
Hi any decent services that you can get all tv channels using a firestick.
See there is a relatively new peado hunting group in Scotland (the first one in Scotland I think), Wolfpack Hunters. For those who don't know, basically these groups set up fake accounts online, pretending to be underage kids and catching online groomers. They film the stings when they go and...
Turned down transgender role because of pressure from LGBTQ groups. Jeez, what next? Let's object to Robert Newton playing Long John Silver because he never really lost a leg. :rolleyes:
From the whisky threads that appear on here from time to time the fondness many of us have for Islays famous export is clear. Having visited the island a few times I'm always amazed at how one of the most remarkable stories of WWI is little known beyond the shores of Islay, those of you who have...
Any joiners on here? Needing a very small job done, for which i don't have the tools (or the skill :greengrin) Give me a shout if you're interested.
A lot of debate now about this and Canada has passed a law that makes recreational use legal. Not sure myself, could it lead to harder drug use? But if I was walking home on my own at 2am I would rather cross paths with a group of stoners than a group of drunks.
Has anybody claimed this? Put my claim in 6 weeks ago but still to hear from airline. What i'm wondering is if they will try and say it's time barred as 5 years is up next week?
