  1. Exhibit A m’lud. I await the defence counsel’s opinion… https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGe9rVjs2/
  2. I do it. Crack the egg into a wee sieve above a cup and it lets all the runny white away. Also makes dooking them into the pan much easier. And, once cooked, it gives you a much tidier egg. Of the entire world of possibilities out there, it seems my speciality is poaching eggs. If any PnBers are looking for any hints or tips, I’m here…
  3. Only on the basis of being a Partick fan, have you tried DeutschTek just off Woodlands Road? (admittedly 10/15 years ago now but) when I had an Audi they were great with me although it was only for routine servicing..
  4. It’d take a total bamstick to want the leadership right now. The clever ones will wait, watch it implode and then come with a (fairly easy) rebuild job.
  5. Someone more technically minded than me needs to get Silva’s late dive onto a .gif Clean through on goal, no one within 5 yards and he goes down looking for a penalty instead of taking the shot. A total fraud.
  6. There’s the rub. Just by dint of geography do you prefer the devil or the deep blue sea? A compromise sometimes just isn’t available. Capitulate now to a mortal enemy or mortgage the farm with a hope to maybe one day repay the debt? I know which I’d choose.
  7. FFS. It’s taken you a couple of days to digest the news and get here but @SandyCromarty, never change Sandy, never change.
  8. Well, you can’t say you’ve not been entertained.
  9. Don’t bother. It’s a 10/12 hr drive away, populated by fake incomers, it’s wildly expensive and you’ll find yourself getting ripped off left right and centre. Lovely scenery though and if you could guarantee the weather, you’d be back every year. For the same experience (with added Tennents ) just get yourself on the Dunoon ferry and save yourself the drive down the M6.
  10. I have seen this phraseology used regularly but it seems rather clunky and full of subliminal meaning: “The former first minister emerged from the home near Glasgow she shares with Peter Murrell” Why isn’t it her home? Their home? The marital home? But it’s described as the ‘home she shares? Surely all spouses share their home with their significant other?
  11. It is but they do take an English precedent as worth following unless we have a serious divergence in legislation. On this I don’t think we do.
  12. Awfy quiet in here for such a big story. Is there a game on the night?
  13. Not much change from those in their Renaults with the YES stickers on the back travelling through the town at a flat out 20mph tbf.
  14. Skipped across an article suggesting it was a cloud seeding exercise gone wrong?
