throbber Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Lovely. Having a garden is terrific.I have been in a flat for 5.5 years now and whilst the location is great there is something not natural about living in a flat and not having a garden you can sit in on a nice day. Last summer was particularly difficult with the heat of wave/World Cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8MileBU Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Nah not as far out as that. I thought those places had stopped expanding anyway? Doesn’t seem that way. The developments at Kirkliston and Winchburgh seem like they have doubled the size of both towns. What area (or roughly if you don’t want to be too specific) you moving to? Seems Edinburgh is surrounded by new developments at the moment. A lot of building going on at Straiton, Prestonpans and looks like a couple of huge plots of land by the A1 are being landscaped for new builds out near Tranent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philpy Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Wallyford is going to be a town rather than a village the way it's going. Houses getting built everywhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wall next to the table where I used to sit at to study is particularly bad and it’s quite stubborn to clean off. From your mouth you say? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpar Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 It makes me uncomfortable enough when people use the wrong who's/whose, but "whos" takes the piss. I can never tell if people who use it actually think it's a word in its own right, or if they just got stuck making the who's/whose decision and went for a bit of both. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 14.5% tho so decent bang/buck Eta my special bottle is Amarone 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m moving near Musselburgh/portybelly. It’s largely down to the Mrs who wanted to stay closer to town, I’d happily have moved to fife and got a bigger place but she was having none of it. Loads of areas around the bypass are being built on in the next few years which is why Edinburgh will be more populated than Glasgow in 2030 apparently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately, you're living in the perfect city for good garden access and no gardening. When we lived in EH6 (when we had our younger two) we'd a key for Regent Gardens and it was the perfect blend of both. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted April 15, 2019 Share Posted April 15, 2019 Crispymodo. Quote Notre Dame on fire in Paris. The cause is not yet clear, but officials say it could be linked to renovation work. Same contractors of the GSA? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-47941794 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
