No matter where you are parked, there will be a trolley bay within 10 metres of where you are. Why could anyone find that walk inconvenient.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

Green bin day in Edinburgh. Leave it wedged against the wall so it doesn't get blown over.
Council employee comes along and moves it three feet to the side of the road to save half a second when the lorry comes round.
Wind blows (now freestanding) green bin over. Rubbish blown all over street.

I was in Glasgow last night and there was actual gangs of deliveroo/just eat drivers just hanging around street corners waiting on their phones pinging. Not something I have experienced in Edinburgh yet but whilst not intimidating or anything like that but the were obstructing pedestrian areas.

As an aside, does anyone else sing the Fast Food song (by the Fast Food Rockers) when they pass the junction of Argyle St & Union St. There is literally a McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut there 😀

Anyone else getting constant adds on YouTube for a new series on Dave? Meet The Richardson’s. Literally every advert, or if there’s two adverts it’s one of them, is for that show. I’ve never watched it before or watched anything with John Richardson, though I don’t mind him, on YouTube. I think I’m getting Stockholm syndrome.

Wonky supermarket trolleys, just about every trolley I pick at my local Asda has a dodgy wheel with a flat spot on it. Spend the next half hour thumping my way around the place getting my shopping. On the odd occasion I’ve changed it for another, more often than not it’s equally as bad.

there’s a few apps you can use to put a digital copy of your card on your phone, Stocard is one. Saves carting all the extra cards/trying to remember the ones you think you’ll need

[QUOTE=Gatecrasher;7331747]Supermarkets that make you sign up to their card/club just to pay for things at the "normal" already over-inflated price (Tesco ) I'll never set foot in a shop that does this.[
I agree, Tesco have introduced two tier pricing. Walking through their store is depressing having the mug price against their Clubcard price.
The mug price subsidises the cheaper price. So unfriendly.

I do take the broader point about two tier pricing and the suggestion lower pricing should be implemented across the board but until that's the case I'm quite happy to keep playing the game with them.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

That's an impressive haul of offers! The only thing I do is use nectar points (and prices) when I shop. I've got £120 of points which my wife insists on keeping for next Christmas (I'd spend them now, there's only downside to waiting since they no longer double up).
Unfortunately my wife doesn't like the idea of credit cards. You're spot on in the way you use yours though and is the first thing I'd recommend to anyone looking for advise on their personal finances.Mon the Hibs.

“Hence why”
Particularly when used by people trying to sound clever and/or condescending.

I was at Newmarket last year for the Guineas Festival and that was £7.95 a pint of Madri. A few of my mates were at Aintree at the weekend and they were £7.50 a Pravha or £7.20 for Carling with a spirit at £5.50 a single and mixers starting at £2.50. I know costs have gone up across the board but £154 return on a bottle of vodka is one hell of a mark up.
You obviously expect to pay a bit more at event venues of any description because of the captive market but I've increasingly found myself just not buying a drink at things I usually always would have. Even in pubs £4.50+ is pretty standard for Tennents now and in the centre of town the £6 and £7 a pint barrier is breached regularly outside of the likes of Wetherspoons.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017.

Yesterday was in:
The Newsroom
The Guildford
Tiles
The Abbotsford
Rose St Brewery
Robinsons Bar 37
The Amber Rose
Winstons (less than £10 per round)
The round for two of us varied between £11-£12.50 in each one which is about par for the course up town.

Bottle of Buckfast has gone up by a £1 this week and a 900ml bottle of Lucozade up from £1.25 to £2 in my local shop.
£5.50 for a pint of San Miguel now as well in my usual place.
Went for tapas the other night with the Mrs. Shared a jug of sangria and had 4 tapas each. Bill was over £100. Its tapas (insert swear words).

I just paid £3.90 for a pint of Madri in my Sports and Social club.
Shows you what profit they're making elsewhere.
