Amarone in George Street was the venue for my niece's graduation dinner. I wasn't overly impressed, then again I never really expected to be if I'm honest. Lows were; Nine out of the ten mains being served together, the tenth person was told "we haven't forgot you,it's just not ready yet" It...
At the request of Alfiembra, here's the Driving Pet Peeve thread for frustrated motorists. So, to kick it off....... When you are just about to get into your car in a car park some Dumbo decides to draw in tight alongside your driver's door despite there being empty spaces everywhere around....
I have resolved to watch more documentaries during lockdown, so I'm looking for some recommendations. Watched the Console Wars (Nintendo v Sega) and Apollo 11 on Sky Documentaries over the last couple of days.

I’ve never had one before. Can anyone tell me how quickly they get sent? I might be lucky and have missed it but I pulled into the buslane behind a bus that was waiting to turn right at Duddingston Crossroads. I couldn’t see the camera till the bus moved and would have been in the lane by the...

Obviously personal taste and opinion determines what we consider to be best and worst so the only rule for this thread is that you must have sat through the entire film. My 5 are, in no particular order; The Hangover 40 Year Old Virgin The Matrix Revolutions Highlander 2 Independence Day
Lisa Marie Presley death: Only child of Elvis Presley dead aged 54 after hospitalisation (msn.com) only 54, i can just about remember her father dying
Does anyone else wince when they see something spelt wrongly and then spend the next minute or so arguing internally about whether to post a correction? I've managed to resist doing so up till now although I did PM someone to point out a mistake they frequently made so as to avoid them any...
What’s your top 5 films? In any order. Mine are: Cool Hand Luke Serpico A Bridge Too Far Planes Trains & Automobiles Ghostbusters
Is anyone on here good at chess? And how do you get better? I used to play with my grandad when I was a kid, I used to think he was a sort of Bonnyrigg grand master at it. When I beat him I celebrated like David Gray in 2016. Unfortunately as i got older, and proper chess players were handing...
I admit this is a bit of a moany post and folks will probably think “get a life” but I don’t suppose anyone attempted to sit through the utter guff on the BBC this evening? As a 32 year old, my experience of New Year TV isn’t vast, but I remember it always being a highlight and even if I was...
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,...

Looking at Netflix anyone watch this and what's it like?
I'm enjoying the Uber Eats ad with the black guy doing an inexplicable wee dance while he's waiting for his order to arrive. His wife (I presume) looks up to watch him but gives absolutely no indication of what she's thinking. :hilarious It makes me smile every time I see it and I actually...
I know this is a "how long is a piece of string" type question but how much money is a session and generally speaking how many sessions do you need? And does anyone have any recommendations? Went to the docs back in Feb about a pain in the right side of the hip when I walk. If I walk 1-2 miles...

Another year and another plate of absolute ***** served up at the in-laws. Absolute *****! How do you break it to the wife that you simply can't stomach it every year?
Does anyone know of anywhere in Edinburgh that sells Brennans Bread? It's an Irish brand, similar to our plain bread (but appropriately shaped for a toaster!). Discovered it in Dublin in the summer and would love to find some here.
Anyone haggled with DFS or Sofology for a new sofa? If so how much did you get off the sofa? cheers...
Just announced on The Specials socials. ***** news!
No, not that shower. Help me with an argument. Why does one spit on the heart of midlothian at St Giles? I know what I know but a self-appointed expert thinks otherwise. Shoot!
I’m logging into Apple Music on my windows laptop just now checking I can cast too the tv for the impending family karaoke championships and I’ve only got it playing previews for some reason I’ve done a Google search on it and the only 2 ‘fixes’ I’ve come across don’t work anyone any ideas? All...
I've gone a wee while without listening to much in the way of new music, but there's been a spate of album releases I've wanted to check out lately for one reason or another and I've been pleasantly surprised. Babel - Mumford and Sons: Develops their sound from Sigh No More and really cements...

You may have seen this elsewhere, but please don't Google for the answer. (I often wonder why people cheat at stuff like this.) I bought a cow for £800. I sold it for £1000. I bought it again for £1100. I sold it again for £1300. How much did I earn?
Anywhere near Newington you can get a flu jab ?
Might sound daft but.....where is the best place to buy kids toys? I know there is Smyths toy stores but is there anywhere else as I'm struggling. Thanks.
