Keeping an eye on this today to see how it pans out.

Severe lack of an "A" in that "Beware".

Were you getting worried for a bit? Looked like a draw against the second worst team in the Highland League for a while, from the scores.

Missed a pen in 2nd half whilst at 1-1.  Worst Brechin performance I've ever seen.

Somebody is at it.  I was up in Elgin recently and whilst there was always the odd bizarre sign for Perth dotted about the place, I noticed this one near where I used to live.

Potato-throwing teenagers scaring off town’s tourists

Not sure how to quote from another thread but...

A poster called @Andreas12 wrote this on the "Worst Town in Scotland" thread back in December. Most of us ridiculed it at the time but I see it even includes some of the same verbiage as in the linked article. Hmm. 

 

Grantown on Spey. What an absolute hole of a town. Dont get me wrong, im sure there are some great people there, but boy boy does it have wild youths. My sister stayed for a week in the town in February and witnessed abusive shouting (Seemingly random, directed at her though, they did not know who she was), she is 55, and was called a slut by a youth. At night the place is apparently a no go zone in the centre of town, they were not sure if the youths were homeless or not (Is there homelessness in the Highlands?), but a number of them were on drugs on at least two occasions when she was out. Because she was staying in the town, her group spent quite of time in the centre. She was speaking with a local manager of a hotel and they have had eggs on their windows, guests complain about the youths behaviour and more. So you may think its all fine in the Scottish Highlands but its not all that! We stayed at a hotel there two years ago for one night, although the pub was really, really rough in the High Street with some real characters that I can only remember from my younger years, people that you only knew their nicknames and not real names, it was great craic, but there are fights regularly there, a couple told us when we were in.

His one and only post, out of nowhere. I suspect he's a TripAdvisor scammer who had to pay his hotel bill in full, after threatening to destroy them on social media.

Nice to see Gollum happy at last. Presumably with a nice new ring.

Boarding up the fireplace is the flat dwellers equivalent of putting a new patio down IMO.

Have to make sure they're well wrapped otherwise the smell will give you away.

That lassie is definitely Gollum. Imagine how thrilled she must have been to receive that.
