https://youtu.be/v6Ytde6tmkQ Hugely unsuccessful band but massively influential. I hear shoe-gaze, grunge, slocore and there's probably a few more micro genres in there too. Great to learn to play to. Sent from my SM-A528B using Tapatalk
Seen this on a few forums, usually a laugh, apologies if it's already been done on here. Post the first word that comes into your head after reading the previous post. I'll start it off. Hibs
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...
Right now we are getting into the dark nights what's the best tv series to watch right now ?.. I'm already on Leftovers but your only getting 1 episode a week..Im looking to power through a box set or 2 in a week :greengrin Cannae watch Game of thrones as i powered through series 1-3 whilst...
What is your favourite movie scene? Mine has to be, this
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.
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....
This is a game I got from another forum. I start by saying something say:What is life And then the next poster makes an acroynym out of last word of my sentence in response say:Life is for elephants (but hopefully better:greengrin)
Not seen a thread like this for a while, so what gigs are people going to in the near future? I am just starting this as I suddenly have a load of gigs to go to that have only materialised over the last 6 weeks or so :greengrin Tomorrow - The Bootleg Beatles, Wellington Nov 10 - Coldplay,...
Does anyone know of any bargains to be had? Failing that tips on what to get/avoid 🤔
Can you name any of the locations? Photo one Photo two Photo three
18 months since Pet Peeves III. The fitba' season's over so here's PP-IV prescribed as a wee bit therapy for us moaners until the new season starts. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- I hate when temporary roadwork signs are left up when they are not...
Anybody know if there is the slightest prospect of Edinburgh having one constructed?
Has anyone read any good books recently
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.
always had a soft spot for, I guess what you would call educational(?), jokes. Jokes to do with maths and the likes. best two I've heard recently My dad once told me i had a lot of potential, right before he pushed me off the balcony. & (not so much a joke, but I like it)
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...
Feels like there's one every week, so thought it might be an idea to have the one thread 🤔 This week it's David Crosby. Eight miles high now.
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.
Has anyone a. Ever taken the ferry from Algeciras to Tangier and b. Is Tangier a good place to go with a family Thinking about going with the wife and kids but was wondering if it's safe enough with kids
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...
Not sure if there is already an existing thread...thought it might be a good idea to start a thread with money saving codes given increased costs on many items. This one is for Railcards. Railcards normally cost £30 for one year (or £70 for three years on some cards), but enter the code...
I'd been seeing a lot of folks talking about/reacting to this song by Ren ("Hi Ren") so decided to see what the fuss was about. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_nc1IVoMxc I cannot recommend this enough - this guy is a complete and utter genius. Far from my typical genre of choice, this...
Get it on is a definite positive for the BBC. Cracking tonight with acoustic songs. You just sit there thinking "what about that, what about this" And a shout out to grant stott and the vinyl collective
Just discovered this. Absolutely mental. Also totally wild, because it's sort of like a podcast before podcasts were a thing, somehow.
I don’t see a film thread on the front page. Seeing as I’ve been watching more this last wee while, thought I’d start a thread for sharing recent watches, whether the films are new releases, old classics and everything in between. I’ll kick off with ‘A star is born’ which I watched on Amazon...
Hi, my son Fraser Pearson ( massive Hibby) is playing at the liquid rooms on Sat 3rd March. He is supporting Tiger Stripes and Jo Poole and also promoting the event. If you like your dance music get yourself along there. https://instagram.com/northpresents?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=...

Random thought hit me. I don’t drink loads but enjoy a bevvy. However what would the world be like if there was no alcohol I’ve had spells through health reasons for not drinking and it’s a bit weird being out. Enjoyed it but also have a heightened sense of people doing my head in!
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
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...
Lately the only type of movie's I want to watch are the old classic's , I've watched " The Guns of Navarone" and " Rio Bravo " both I've watched many times before but still enjoy them from time to time. Which got me wondering what old classic movies do you all enjoy going back too ?
