The fact that every major, and a fair few minor, routes from the east/north east of the city to just about anywhere are shut/diverted/dug up.
Duddingston crossroads - Roadworks were due for 6 weeks but still ongoing 10 weeks later.
Brighton Place - Closed for the next however many months, causing excess traffic to use Harry Lauder Road which causes congestion at the Milton Link, also puts pressure on Mountcastle area, Portobello Road etc
Smokey Brae - Still closed nearly 3 weeks after a tree came down. Causing excess traffic around Craigentinny, Duddingston etc
Willowbrae Road/Piershill Place/London Road - Closed for resurfacing
Add in that Newcraighal Road, Niddrie Mains Road, Duddingston Road etc are all prone to heavy traffic anyway and you can see the issue.
It's currently taking me about an hour to get from Newcraighall Road to Broughton Road in the morning. Mental.

Folks who mump about certain threads being ‘on the wrong forum’. Reminds me of a particularly prissy wee lassie in my primary school class who’d go snivelling up to the teacher on often the most tenuous of pretexts, not that it was her business anyway.
It’s only a message board (albeit, in fairness, a fairly decent one) so let the admins get on with it, I’m sure they know what they’re doing! 🤪

Going out of town in the morning is murder with these road works. 30-40 minutes to get to Musselburgh at 8 in the morning from Calton road...

Conspiracy theorists, particularly those who became structural experts overnight because the 9/11 buildings fell straight down.
F...ing idiotic notion.

Along with the 'should of' peeve, I see people using 'A' when they mean 'I' loads these days. Brutal. "A should of went tae skool".

I agree about the "went" though. Unfortunately, there are professional broadcasters on radio who say that all time. Murdo McLeod and Charlie Nicholas come to mind.

Also people (usually from the west of Scotland) who use the word "wur" instead of "our".
e.g. We've learned wur lesson.

Unless you mean they write like that. In which case yes, off to the gallows with them.
