  • I was there recently and parked in the industrial estate on Cumberland Street, plenty of space and a short walk away. by AhYeah85 (Mon 7th Jan 2019 9:47pm)
  • Each one more horrendous than the last. by AhYeah85 (Tue 8th Jan 2019 1:54pm)
  • You should contact The Police and absolutely should mention it to the factors. They should contact the flat below to advise him that they've been made aware of this incident and if there are further instances continue to contact the factors so as to ensure dates and times etc are all documented and contact The Police if you feel it's necessary. by AhYeah85 (Tue 8th Jan 2019 1:50pm)
  • Pharoahe Monch still got it I see. by AhYeah85 (Wed 9th Jan 2019 6:43pm)
  • I remember when I was in my late teens, before craft and foreign beers became the norm, the Bier Halle sold Sapporo and I thought it was the most exotic stuff I'd ever tasted in my life and couldn't get my head round the fact that Japanese beers were sold in a place in Glasgow. by AhYeah85 (Wed 9th Jan 2019 6:58pm)
  • Virgin. by AhYeah85 (Thu 10th Jan 2019 8:17am)
  • Says a guy with the username Scottish Dragon. My advice to you is to get out of your mums house and try and explore the real world and engage with people. You're just festering in that spare room and all those Monster energy drinks are going to kill you in the end. by AhYeah85 (Thu 10th Jan 2019 8:42am)
  • There's the matter of the numerous women he is more than likely harassing in public and you can wager that the women that he is targeting and preying on are young, on their own and possibly vulnerable, the guys a pest and he wears skip hats backwards, he's a wank. by AhYeah85 (Thu 10th Jan 2019 10:43am)
  • Hardest week of the year nearly done troops, fish and chips from Catch tonight to celebrate. by AhYeah85 (Fri 11th Jan 2019 8:42am)
  • £22 to get into Thistle - Falkirk? That is outrageous. by AhYeah85 (Sat 12th Jan 2019 12:10pm)
  • Hillhead is lovely, very busy, lots going on and has a subway close by. Alternatively you could have a look at the Southside, specifically Strathbungo and Shawlands. Lots of great restaurants, cafes, pubs and plenty of green space and you are well connected into the city centre. by AhYeah85 (Mon 14th Jan 2019 9:23pm)
  • 'The Scottish gov. Stepped in, cut Glasgow’s budget to facilitate the completion of the Edinburgh trams' Maybe I am missing something here, but did this happen? I don't remember it happening or reading about it? What's the story? by AhYeah85 (Thu 17th Jan 2019 8:54pm)
  • Intimidation is this cunts only weapon, it's a pretty pathetic existence and trumped only by the doughnuts that blindly follow him around. by AhYeah85 (Fri 18th Jan 2019 1:52pm)
  • They'll wait until the area is dried out and then they'll carry out the required repairs to make it safe again. by AhYeah85 (Mon 21st Jan 2019 1:49pm)
  • One of the biggest issues previously has been people disposing of bed bug infested mattresses, sofas, furniture on the street, some unsuspecting punter strolls along thinking they've struck gold, manages to get the items to their flat and you've then got a brand new infestation to deal with. by AhYeah85 (Mon 21st Jan 2019 3:09pm)
  • In the three and half years since I moved home, I can only think of a handful of instances where the bus has been late in the morning to get me into work, I've very little to complain about on that front. The return leg however is a different beast, I've lost count of the amount of times I've stood on Victoria Road and no buses have come past for 25 mins plus, despite it being a main road in and out of the city centre and there being five different buses using that route. by AhYeah85 (Tue 22nd Jan 2019 1:48pm)

  • Fair to say they've been snide although whether he's done his due diligence is questionable by the looks of things. by AhYeah85 (Fri 25th Jan 2019 11:33am)
  • First hangover of 2019. by AhYeah85 (Sun 27th Jan 2019 1:27pm)
  • Food is sensational in Madha. by AhYeah85 (Mon 28th Jan 2019 1:39pm)
  • I didn't think it was up to much either. They've tried to imitate/copy/take inspiration from Dishoom and not done a very good. by AhYeah85 (Mon 28th Jan 2019 3:32pm)
  • Nah, but there have been bodies in there since just before Christmas starting to shift some of the mess, I assume in preparation for some work. by AhYeah85 (Tue 29th Jan 2019 8:25am)
  • I went to Kotor last year, spent a week there and visited lots of coastal towns, the national park, done a bit of kayaking and cycling and swam in the Blue Caves etc. Kotor was a decent base although there are a good few places where you can stay and explore if you wanted to. We had to fly from Manchester directly to Kotor, or you can fly to Dubrovnik and then drive down to Montenegro which is a lovely drive by all accounts. It's a great place, pretty reasonable, the food and in particularl the fish was amazing and the scenery is outstanding. by AhYeah85 (Tue 29th Jan 2019 10:46am)
  • The organised South Asian crowd? Is there a large, organised South Asian syndicate of beggars in town? by AhYeah85 (Tue 29th Jan 2019 7:58pm)
  • Where they come from is clearly important as you've taken a story about a white, male, Glaswegian beggar raping a women and used it as a vehicle for your own prejudices with regards to some of the foreign beggars in the city who have the temerity to try and flog flowers to drunk punters at 3 in the morning. by AhYeah85 (Tue 29th Jan 2019 9:08pm)
  • I am pretty centre that Locavore on Victoria Road sells molasses. by AhYeah85 (Tue 29th Jan 2019 9:19pm)
  • >health visitors go everywhere in 2's as do GP's. No they don't, this isn't true in the slightest. I work with health visitors (Doctors, OT'S, Nurses etc) in the area on a regular basis and the only time they would visit a property in twos is if the individual within the property has been flagged as requiring a two person visit, a system that is applied all over the country and is in no way unique to Govanhill. There's plenty of scaremongering and myth around Govanhill and a lot of perpetuated by falsehoods such as this. There are plenty of issues in the area which are being resolved slowly but this overshadowed by this kind of made up shite from someone who has a history of posting shite. Also, the Govanhell patter? Tragic Da stuff. by AhYeah85 (Tue 5th Feb 2019 2:05pm)
  • I'm always pretty suspicious of people who moan about the current state of music, there is plenty of great music around and with the move to digital streaming it's not hard to find. by AhYeah85 (Fri 8th Feb 2019 10:36am)
  • Rugby fans are Gillet wearing, jeans and scheux whoppers. by AhYeah85 (Fri 8th Feb 2019 5:37pm)

  • Glorious morning out there troops. by AhYeah85 (Mon 11th Feb 2019 8:31am)
  • Milk Cafe on Victoria Road does meet ups for English lessons during the week I'm sure and they might will be interested in some sort of exchange, be worth while giving them a visit. by AhYeah85 (Tue 12th Feb 2019 8:20am)
  • Good God, that is horrible. by AhYeah85 (Mon 18th Feb 2019 5:58pm)
  • Has anyone used the pool and facilities over at Eastwood in Giffnock? If so, how decent is it for a swim? by AhYeah85 (Tue 19th Feb 2019 11:14am)
  • That sounds right up my strasse to be honest. by AhYeah85 (Tue 19th Feb 2019 1:38pm)

  • The continued reality of years of austerity. by AhYeah85 (Wed 20th Feb 2019 1:17pm)
  • I used to live in London for five and a half years up until 2015 and during that time I used the train every time to come up and down. The four and a half hours flys by, it's a pleasant journey, and you arrive straight into Central and Euston and it's a doddle to get to wherever you are going from there. There is also a lot to be said for being able to turn up at the train station 30 mins before you leave as opposed to the two hours at the airport. Obviously depends on your circumstances, but the earlier trains going both ways were always great. There was one just after 6am to London and the 5:39am from Euston, always relatively quiet, would pick up a little bit at Preston but plenty of space. by AhYeah85 (Fri 22nd Feb 2019 8:36am)
  • The Courtyard used to be a great shop in it's Sunday Circus heyday. by AhYeah85 (Fri 22nd Feb 2019 8:43am)
  • Aye, there is a bit of a romantic notion attached to it but by all accounts it's horrendous. I remember two of my mates coming down to visit once having got the overnighter and they were both insistent that it was one of the most horrendous journeys they'd ever done, don't think they caught a wink of sleep between them. by AhYeah85 (Fri 22nd Feb 2019 10:48am)
  • I've always fancied a drink in there, is it just an old mans boozer? by AhYeah85 (Sun 24th Feb 2019 8:47am)
  • You only have to look at BBC Scotland's output of programmes in recent years to know this is going to be an absolute disaster. by AhYeah85 (Mon 25th Feb 2019 10:52am)
  • There are a couple of things which protect Govanhill from the type of gentrification referenced in the article. The Housing Association is and has been actively purchasing properties from owners for the last number of years and Right To Buy no longer exists in Scotland. The combination of those two things means that the pool of social housing properties in Govanhill has actually increased in recent years meaning that despite the on going gentrification of the area and the inevitable increase in property prices, there is still going to be a large proportion of the properties in the area which are social housing and that population will always be well represented. by AhYeah85 (Mon 25th Feb 2019 2:15pm)
  • Shawarma King is the most over rated food in Glasgow, their salad choice is fucking guff and their falafels are flavourless mush. Kurdish Street Food on Allison Street is streets ahead of anything and Lazord Syrian Street Food on Howard Street is also very good. by AhYeah85 (Thu 28th Feb 2019 10:39am)
  • The very one aye. by AhYeah85 (Fri 1st Mar 2019 9:11pm)
  • Normal working hours in residential zones is between 8am and 7pm during the week, but exceptions can be made and that may well be the case here. by AhYeah85 (Tue 5th Mar 2019 8:24am)
  • Had a day off yesterday and done hee haw apart from finally getting round to trying the new Irn Bru and watching Inside Central Station on Iplayer, both were decent enough. by AhYeah85 (Tue 5th Mar 2019 8:20am)

  • Best part of the working week this, in at 8, no one about for ages, cup of coffee and a swatch of reddit, downhill from here. by AhYeah85 (Mon 11th Mar 2019 8:33am)
  • A couple of my mates who are right into the gee gee's make a decent wad every year at Cheltenham from some tipster they know and he's tipped Fakir as well so a wee flutter is required. by AhYeah85 (Tue 12th Mar 2019 10:58am)
  • Bit of a coincidence that this has happened when the idea of hard border and this backstop agreement between Ireland and Northern Ireland is at the forefront of everyones mind. You might think that something like this would play into the hands of those who wish to soften peoples approach to a hard border, particularly given the IRA reluctance to target Scotland in the past. Why would they all of a sudden change their stance, it makes no sense. by AhYeah85 (Tue 12th Mar 2019 11:04am)
  • And only just. Got it on an E/W double with the 5:30, so might make a small profit. by AhYeah85 (Tue 12th Mar 2019 4:12pm)
  • Is it true they serve Monster on tap in there? by AhYeah85 (Wed 13th Mar 2019 10:30am)
  • Was through in Edinburgh on Saturday for some food, the weather was honking, so we ended up in the National Museum of Scotland and then a few pubs and up the road before n nine o clock. Rounded off the weekend by watching Messi score one of the greatest hat tricks I've ever seen in my life last night. by AhYeah85 (Mon 18th Mar 2019 8:30am)
  • Those buskers are some of the most annoying cunts in this city with their beige music and acoustic guitars. by AhYeah85 (Tue 19th Mar 2019 8:55pm)
  • Why don't you approach Govanhill Housing Association? by AhYeah85 (Thu 21st Mar 2019 8:10pm)
  • Yeah, they factor the majority of properties in the area and in the last two years or so have taken on the factoring of lots of blocks in Govanhill. All you would need to do is write to them or contact them saying you are interested and they would then send you and all of the other owners expressions of interests and if they get a majority they would arrange a formal meeting to take a vote on the proposal. Housing Associations are much cheaper than private factors and in my opinion, much more transparent and trustworthy. You would have to get a majority of owners on board though, but if you could demonstrate that they'll have more money in their pocket at the end of each month they'll go for it. by AhYeah85 (Fri 22nd Mar 2019 8:33am)
  • What a lot of hyperbolic old shite. by AhYeah85 (Sun 24th Mar 2019 10:33am)
  • It's hardly a fucking rubbish tip, of course it is not clean utopia either and there are issues with litter, but it's not the litter strewn hell hole you've made it out to be. >Most of the city is really, really grim. Dirty and depressing, even the so-called "desirable and nice" areas like the West end and Strathbungo. There's litter, broken glass and dog shit on every pavement. Same goes for most of the surrounding towns. There is a lot of sectarianism. Antisocial behaviour is practically normalised and has been effectively decriminalised by the police. Also, the above is just plain lies, pure unadulterated fucking nonsense. by AhYeah85 (Sun 24th Mar 2019 1:13pm)
  • Back in today and then off next week, so it's going to be a busy four days getting everything crammed in. Went to Wilson Street Pantry yesterday on the strength of the coffee shop thread, first time I've been in, lovely coffee and lovely scran. by AhYeah85 (Tue 26th Mar 2019 8:37am)
  • I've been a few times and always thought it was a bit iffy, Modeselektor last year was ridiculously bad. Gza has been moved to there next week from St Lukes as well which is shame. by AhYeah85 (Tue 26th Mar 2019 7:34pm)
  • That's a whole new level of depravity. by AhYeah85 (Wed 27th Mar 2019 8:12am)

  • Back to work after a week away where eat and slept like a king so I'm feeling pretty refreshed. The works arsehole will be in the next 20 minutes however to ruin my peace and update me on everything that's happened since I've been away, no matter how insignificant it is. by AhYeah85 (Tue 9th Apr 2019 8:27am)
  • Wee bit rough after GZA last night so going to go for a stroll down Linn Park to freshen up. by AhYeah85 (Fri 12th Apr 2019 11:31am)
  • Had a quiet weekend, was up Strathblane for a walk on Saturday and then down to Madlab at SWG3 for a bit of scran yesterday afternoon. Was really nice, although the smoked Mushroom porridge might have been the worst thing I've ever eaten. by AhYeah85 (Mon 15th Apr 2019 10:22am)
  • Glasgows Sheuxiest establishment. by AhYeah85 (Mon 15th Apr 2019 10:29am)
  • The Southside, Shawlands in particular has been pretty mental in terms of prices for a while now and if it's valued at 130k, then it could go for anywhere between 10 - 20% over that. The other thing to bear in mind is that you will only get a mortgage for the home report value, so anything you pay over that value will have to paid in cash alongside the deposit. by AhYeah85 (Tue 16th Apr 2019 8:34am)
  • Glasgow bands are generally, absolutely fucking horrendous. The vast majority are stuck in some early to mid 2000's vortex that they seem incapable of escaping. by AhYeah85 (Wed 17th Apr 2019 8:40am)
  • Surely it stands to reason that the Glasgow subreddit is going to reflect the politics of the city at large ya tory bastard. by AhYeah85 (Wed 17th Apr 2019 1:36pm)
  • To be fair, anyone over the age of 10 wearing a football top is for the watching. by AhYeah85 (Wed 17th Apr 2019 3:23pm)
  • You'd think after four days off in the glorious sunshine you'd be as fresh as for work this morning, not a fucking chance. I think a mixture of a few days bevvying on Friday and Saturday, too much sun and a lot of walking yesterday contributed to a horrendous nights sleep. Anyway, in early this morning and out of here at 4 to park my arse in the back garden again. by AhYeah85 (Tue 23rd Apr 2019 8:13am)

  • Went to see The Avengers on Saturday, was alright, the nacho cheese and salsa from Cineworld might be the worst things I've ever tasted, a fucking abomination. Was up in Stirling yesterday morning to see my sister do the marathon, a strangely emotional experience and she managed to do it in under four hours, which I'm reliably informed for your first marathon is impressive. by AhYeah85 (Mon 29th Apr 2019 8:22am)
  • Everyone and their Granny knows whats required to improve the transport infrastructure of the city and nothing has been done for years to properly tackle it. I very much doubt that is going to change. by AhYeah85 (Mon 29th Apr 2019 8:32am)
  • I was in Portland in September and everyone was talking about how rainy it gets around then, but it was glorious for the four days I was there. by AhYeah85 (Mon 29th Apr 2019 10:53am)

  • Was at a family hing yesterday, ended up steaming, wife was sober, reckon my patter when drunk and you're sober is honking. Roast the day and a glass of red to recuperate. by AhYeah85 (Sun 5th May 2019 1:52pm)
  • if it's the door entry system thats goosed then it would be down to the factor, if it's the handset in your flat thats broken then that would be the landlords responsibility to fix. by AhYeah85 (Mon 6th May 2019 4:16pm)
  • Grim and cold this morning. Got a meeting in town at 10 and then out of here at 4 to go swimming and try and get back into a wee bit of regular exercise. by AhYeah85 (Tue 7th May 2019 9:07am)
  • I've seen a few recently, one down at Linn Park over Easter and spotted one on the train on some wooded area between Hairmyres and Busby on Saturday. by AhYeah85 (Tue 7th May 2019 1:00pm)
  • Homelessness services are already at breaking point throughout the city, most hostels are jam packed and this is going to do nothing but make an already dire situation even more desperate. by AhYeah85 (Tue 7th May 2019 2:07pm)
  • I suppose it depends on numbers, but The Admiral is a great boozer and seems to be fairly popular with work groups. by AhYeah85 (Thu 9th May 2019 10:38am)
  • Been a long and slow week, so I am out of here at 4 and up to my maws for some scran. by AhYeah85 (Fri 10th May 2019 8:26am)
  • I was coming back Southside from EK on Friday night and it was wild. Going down the Queensway the sunset was blazing and it was absolutely chucking it down at the same time. by AhYeah85 (Mon 13th May 2019 8:23am)
  • Quiet weekend, bought a bed on Saturday and traipsed about South Street looking for a door, watched Get Out and then bought a few of those Overtone beers for the football yesterday which were delicious. Got a run of three weddings in six weeks starting next Thursday and I have had no luck with suits, so it's off to M&S as the last port of call after work to see what I can find. by AhYeah85 (Mon 13th May 2019 8:29am)
  • Paesano is the obvious one and justifiably so, but The Admiral pizzas are excellent as well. by AhYeah85 (Mon 13th May 2019 8:31am)

  • You have no interest in the victims of child abuse, you're only interested in using their suffering to point score when it comes to football rivalry, it's beyond sad. You had a wee meltdown over the weekend because you had a big game on Sunday and you should have kept your head down, you've no fucking shame. by AhYeah85 (Tue 14th May 2019 2:01pm)

  • The Overtone beers are genuinely sensational, brewed in Yoker I believe. by AhYeah85 (Sun 19th May 2019 7:54am)
  • With a budget like that, I'd imagine a 2 bed flat in any of those areas should be well within your reach and they are all decent areas with good transport links and lots of places to eat and drink. Only thing I would say is that Shawlands and Battlefield are very popular and it's extremely competitive, the majority of flats go to a closing date and often go for 5-10% over the home report. If you're wanting you're money to go a wee bit further then Cathcart might be a good bet. It still has good transport links to the Southside and City Centre, few pubs about but quieter than Shawlands and Battlefield. by AhYeah85 (Mon 20th May 2019 10:50am)

  • The same Italy were fans have been murdered before games, Police have shot fans, leaders of ultras groups done for slinging gear and tickets and not to mention the extreme right wing leanings of the vast majority of ultras groups and you think our fans are bad? People were out having a good time yesterday and there is no excuse for the litter but fuck me, comparing them in a negative light to italian fans is some take. by AhYeah85 (Sun 26th May 2019 7:51pm)

  • Aye, it's mental. by AhYeah85 (Tue 4th Jun 2019 8:55pm)
  • As with everything these days, no one is happy to take the middle ground a little bit, extremism is king. Glasgow does have a litter issue, but it's nowhere near as bad as people on here make it out to be and whilst the transport can it times be unrealiable, again it's nowhere near as bad as you would think if you read the hyperbole on here. Tramps and junkies are in every big city in the UK, Christ every big city in the world has tramps or junkies. Spend sometime in places like San Francisco or Portland and you would see cities with real issues with homelessness, ours are miniscule in comparison. Self loathing is part of our make up, but this trend for bashing Glasgow constantly on here is so over the top. It's not London but it's not Hull either. It's a big city with lots going for it, lots to do and a great place to stay. It has lots of potential and that is not being reached but things are slowly beginning to change. In saying all that, moving away from your home town is something I'd always encourage people to do, it's eye opening, provides independence and freedom and broadens your horizons, so fucking go for it. by AhYeah85 (Wed 5th Jun 2019 8:30am)

  • Thank fuck someone got a picture of this. I was walking along Stamperland Drive towards Clarkston train station, headphones in and I heard a plane that was really low, looked up and saw this mad thing.

  • Nice N Sleazy is awful, full a cunts that listen to Pavement, wear converse and drink shite pints. The Allison Arms on a Saturday night is horrendous, always too busy, nowhere to sit and full of roasters who've travelled from all over to be there. Church on The Hill is a horrendous boozer, save for the outside seating areas. Full of guys with double sleeve tattoos and yeezys and women who have pictures that say 'live, love, laugh' in their living room. And the food is horrendous. The old schoolhouse on Woodlands Road, an empty, soulless vessel with rugby paraphernalia on the wall, enough said. Lebowski's in Finnieston is garbage, overpriced, shit food, shit white Russians, full of apprentice jeans and scheux. The driftwood on sauchiehall Street and I've had the misfortune once of being in that O'Neills in the merchant city on a Friday night for a work do, absolutely full to the gunnels, music turned upto 11, hell on earth. by AhYeah85 (Wed 24th Jul 2019 1:56pm)

I don't know if there are any stockists in Glasgow, End on Ingram Street may have them. Fat Bhudda on Queen Street sells Tretorn jackets, which although not as thick as Stutterheim are still pretty good and are about £80, pretty sturdy and will last for a while. by AhYeah85 (Thu 1st Aug 2019 8:31am)

  • You need to get a look at the title deeds which your solicitor will have given you a copy of I'm sure. In the title deeds there are sections about burdens which in most cases will explain what needs to be done to change the factor. After you've done that I would do some research and approach some factors that you want to take over and from their point of view they'll do a bit of research and determine whether it's worth their while to pursue it. There are plenty of issues that could get in the way, so I'd work with everybody in the close (or as many are willing to participate) to try and identify factors that everyone is happy with and they should send you documents on their costs, written statements etc. Once you've done that, your proposed new factor will have to set up a formal meeting and although this may not apply to you, in most cases it is a simple majority i.e, if there are eight flats, you need five to vote to agree to change. Once that's done, your new factors will serve a notice to H&P and I know from experience that they require three months notice before changing hands. by AhYeah85 (Wed 14th Aug 2019 3:48pm)

Went to see The Joker yesterday, was ok, nowhere near as bad as some have made out but certainly not the masterpiece I've seen it described as.

  • If Housing Officers need to get into someone's home as they are concerned about something they will make that abundantly clear, they don't use a faux window project as cover to spy on the condition of someone's property. If they did have concerns about your tenancy, then you would be invited to the office for a meeting, if they've not done that then I don't imagine they'll have any major concerns. As for the windows, kitchen and bathrooms etc that is the Housing Associations responsibility to ensure these are maintained and replaced if need be.If they are measuring windows etc just now then I'd say it's pretty obvious they are just in the early stages of that particular project so I think it's a bit unrealistic to expect them to breakdown all the details of a project that by the sounds of things, is in it's infancy. Finally, if you're taking days off and not getting paid for it, join a union, it's the best thing you will do. by AhYeah85 (Mon 18th Nov 2019 11:04am)

  • You need to get all of the owners together and get a plan in place for the repairs, particularly the leaking gutters. If you look at your title it should break down exactly the share that each flat has to pay and if it's a simple eight flats and 12.5% you're jamming. The issue you've got with no factor however is that you cannot force anyone to pay and if you were to pursue them then you would absorb the costs. On the other hand, if you did have a factor and particularly a local housing association as factor, they have the resources to pursue people for non payment and they will carry out required works of the common areas when required. Your title will also give you some info on changing factors as well and whether you require a simple majority or more to appoint a factor. by AhYeah85 (Fri 6th Dec 2019 8:43am)

People continually moan and quite rightly about how little we as a city utilise the river but we're happy for another identikit retail park to get flung up when there is one right across the river? And also this 'lifestyle outlet' pish, basically just another gaff with terrible shops like River Island, Next, Zara and mediocre, overpriced restaurants like Chiquitos, Frankie & Benny's and Hungry Horse.

  • A lack of Council funding is not a uniquely Glasgow problem though, almost every local authority in the UK has had to scale back on vital services since 2010 and the introduction of austerity. There absolutely is an argument as to whether the SNP could have done more to try and lessen the impact, but I'm not entirely convinced there's much they could do. We are dealing with an ideological tory party who for 10 years have systematically cut funding to local councils that have put lives at risk and removed cultural and learning from towns and cities that desperately need it. They promised us austerity was ever during that election campaign, it won't be long before we learn that that was utter bullshit. by AhYeah85 (Thu 30th Jan 2020 3:11pm)
  • Absolutely, but they In turn are funded by the UK government (amongst other sources) and since 2010, that budget has been cut in real terms due to inflation or has essentially remained the same year on year. They haven't had the required funding to deal with the extra demand on council services (housing, social care & children's services primarily) which has come about as a direct result of austerity. by AhYeah85 (Thu 30th Jan 2020 10:34pm)

  • My mate was telling me on Saturday they bid £180,000 for a one bed flat in Langside that had a home report value of £160,000 and still lost out. by AhYeah85 (Mon 3rd Feb 2020 8:20am)
  • I assume it's a problem in places throughout the city where first time buyers want to buy although not exclusive to them. My experience and those of mates has been in the southside, primarily Strathbungo, Shawlands, Battlefield, Langside, Mount Florida etc, all places with a large number of tenemental stock and therefore more likely to be first time buyers who are desperate to get somewhere. It was a problem we faced and we were outbid regularly by people going over the home report value and that was two years ago. We were also looking at houses and slightly further out (Cathcart, Stamperland, Clarkston, Muirend) and eventually paid 5k over, so nowhere near some of the numbers being dished out for flats in the southside. Ultimately if you want to buy somewhere that's popular, you're going to need a big pot of cash that you're willing to say goodbye to straight way to try and secure somewhere, which is mental. by AhYeah85 (Mon 3rd Feb 2020 1:31pm)

I work in Social Housing, so there's plenty of vulnerable people that cover a mulititude of at risk groups and I'm not entirely sure how we best prepare to help them. We've got people with mental health issues, chronic and terminal illness, lots of people who work in the service industry and zero hour contracts who are soon going to be unable to pay their rent. It's a hugely diverse area as well and i've no doubt some tenants and owners have travelled to areas where this is rife or have come in contact with family members, friends who have.

  • I've been perplexed by Glasgows boundaries for a long, long time. It always kind of struck me as being symptomatic of a city that for a long time was stuck in the past and was run by stuffy old bastards willing to modernise. The SNP Council have spoken a lot about modernising the city, particularly with regards nightlife etc and have made some inroads. The restructuring of the boundaries to include more of the outlying areas that are naturally part of the city would continue that modernisation imo. by AhYeah85 (Sat 11th Apr 2020 9:22am)

  • > Blame the Tories for everything if it makes you feel better but its not credible that Labour or whoever else would have done much better in these circumstances. This is a pretty weak argument as Labour are not in power. The current government are responsible for protecting it's citizens and if we dont hold them accountable then who de we hold accountable? They've got so much wrong from the start, the unwillingness to lockdown earlier, the herd immunity strategy, the lack of PPE, not recognising deaths in care homes and much, much more. Lets not also forget that they did some work a few years ago on what would happen if a pandemic became a reality and they didn't follow through on the recommendations that arose from that exercise because of their own austerity measures which became an obsession of theirs. by AhYeah85 (Mon 27th Apr 2020 2:43pm)

It's nowhere near as busy as Queens Park, plenty of open Space, amazing old trees, lots of cool birds, Wild Garlic all over the shop and it defo feels quite rural in places, despite being in the city.

  • Whilst East Kilbride is pretty boring and not got a lot going on, there are plenty of shops, train into Glasgow in about 30 mins and depending on what area you are in you can get the bus into town in round about the same length of time. It's pretty big though and if you are away out in Greenhills, Whitehills, Lyndseyfield etc you will need a car as the bus and train options are pretty crap up that end. The schools were pretty good when I was growing up, St Brides in particular although I've no idea if that's still the case. Despite it's size there's not a lot of great pubs, restaurants etc, so if that's something you're looking for then the southside is a much better option. Shawlands, Battlefield, Strathbungo, Mount Florida Cathcart have much more going on and all fairly well connected to EK by train, bus and you could drive there in 20 mins to see your pal. You'll get far more for your money in EK but its whether you're willing to give up being closer to the city and all the advantages that brings with it. by AhYeah85 (Mon 4th May 2020 9:17am)

  • You can't seriously equate individuals who flouted lockdown to the actual folk running the country who made the decisions to try and combat the virus in the way they did, that's insane. They're messaging has been ambiguous throughout and they're deperate to reverse those measures even though another 400 odd people died yesterday. In addition, the actual number of people who did break lockdown rules and by that I mean socialising with other households and not social distancing is miniscule, the overwhelming majority have adhered to the rules. >Also, what’s the acceptable number of deaths where we wouldn’t have hanged the government? No one can answer that right now because this is such a new virus but we will get a better idea once a public inquiry is conducted. What we can say with certainty however is that we have the highest number of deaths in Europe and that is shameful. Lets not pretend that The Government simply couldn't do anything to combat it and that their hands were tied, they've been complicit in huge numbers of these deaths and it's ridiculous to try and defend them. by AhYeah85 (Thu 28th May 2020 11:50am)

What I do find nauseating though is the quite disturbing number of people who have commented on these protests over the weekend and used the pandemic to condemn when it seems to be that most are ambivalent towards the movement anyway. The amount of 'whats that got to do with Glasgow' posts or 'Americanisation of our politics continues' I've seen is disturbing. Does no one understand the concept of solidarity anymore or are we just happy to be come insular and bitter?

  • I've worked in Housing for about 10 years and I really enjoy it. I work more on the policy side of things, investigating complaints, some media stuff as well, but I have plenty of interaction with tenants and owners as part of my role. It can be tough, you've got to make the most of what resources you've got and you deal with some ridiculous stuff at times but ultimately it's pretty varied, it's interesting, your dealing with lots of different agencies and it's rewarding. If you got to Housing Officer level the pay is pretty good, think around 35k and you get some really good benefits.

  • My instinct would be that it needs to be looked at and i agree with you that whatever someone is willing to pay for something is it's worth, but ultimately your at the mercy of the banks aren't you. The market value and the purchase price are two different things and the banks are basically protecting themselves with the home report value should you default on your mortgage.

The suggestion seems to be that we'll be allowed back into the office at the start of next year and it will be one week in the office followed by one week working from home which would seem to be the best of both worlds. I genuinely miss the commute as well. The five minute walk to the bus stop woke me up and the bus journey was only 20-25 mins. Bus was normally pretty quiet and I'd listen to podcasts every morning which I've let slip completely since lockdown. by AhYeah85 (Tue 14th Jul 2020 8:05pm)

  • Depends where you're looking. Orchard Park Avenue and most of the streets off that are pretty nice with some really nice houses and much cheaper than Giffnock, Clarkston etc. The otherside of Spiersbridge Road is a little bit rougher round the edges with a few exceptions. Where you'll get much more for your money in terms of property, there's not much happening in Thornliebank it's self. The Main Street is pretty fucking grim but with the train station you can get to Shawlands in under 10 minutes, Central in about 15 and you're not far from Giffnock Lidl and Morrisons. by AhYeah85 (Wed 15th Jul 2020 8:02pm)

  • Maryhill isn't anywhere near a bad as it was in the past and a short jaunt to the west end. Strathbungo on the other hand is pretty salubrious, lots of cafes, pubs, restaurants and it does have pretty good transport links to the city. It's incredibly popular at the moment though, much like the Southside in general, and you'd be paying much more in rent than you would for an equivalent flat in Maryhill. by AhYeah85 (Thu 13th Aug 2020 8:44am)

  • It's become abundantly clear over the last 10 years that The United Kingdom in its current guise is unable and unwilling to protect its most vulnerable citizens. We've seen refugees and immigrants targeted as well plenty of the working and under class people who have had their benefits targeted, we've seen legal aid slashed, all of which contribute to this greater disparity between rich and poor. The real indication of how well a country is working, or in this case Union, is how well it's able to protect its most vulnerable citizens. I don't think anyone genuinely believes Independence wipes out poverty but this Union has given up on these people and that for me is enough to support Independence. by AhYeah85 (Wed 26th Aug 2020 12:18pm)

  • I think it's a difficult one. I completely understand why the council removed those services and I also completely understand why bin men and women would be reluctant to be traipsing in and out of closes all over the city, picking up items that have been God knows where during a pandemic, they have the right, just like the rest of us to be protected at work. On the other hand, I think the Council have completely failed from a communications perspective. I appreciate that there may well be lots of negotiating going on but something of an update advising folk on where they are with these discussions or a timeline of when they may start these services again would certainly appease people. by AhYeah85 (Mon 31st Aug 2020 8:39am)

I had my test on Wednesday and my instructor made it blatantly clear that as a result of backlogs that test centres are dealing with, the examiners are being more lenient than they have been in the past and as long as you don't do something completely mad then you'll have a right good chance of passing. They are however returning to test centres as soon as you fail so as to minimise the amount of time in the car as a result of covid. I was one of seven tests on Wednesday and was extremely fortunate to be the only one to pass and actually complete the test. It was some buzz, good luck. by AhYeah85 (Fri 2nd Oct 2020 8:47pm)

  • I'm definitely not insecure about rugby and I'm certainly not punching down, the demographic of rugby supporters and players tells you as much. Football is always an easy target for people, primarily because it's a working class sport and rugby is often used as the beacon to which football fans and players should strive in terms of their behaviour without acknowledging the fact that the sport its self is fucking dire and the whole culture that follows it is just entirely beige. I'm also well within my rights to have a go at a sport where the vast majority of fans are kitted out in Jack Wolfskin and bootcut jeans, I'm sure we both agree that deserves to be ridiculed. by AhYeah85 (Thu 12th Nov 2020 3:02pm)

  • Cathcart is pretty good, it has the luxury of being fairly close to all the restaurants, cafes and bars (when they open) of Shawlands, Strathbungo, Battlefield, Mount Florida and Govanhill but far enough away to be a fairly quiet little bit. You're well connected with the train station and both the 4 & 6 Will get you into the centre of town in about 20-25 minutes. As others have said though, the proximity to Linn Park is ideal, The walk via Snuff Mill Bridge is absolutely gorgeous and you can stop off in The Old Smiddy for a pint on yer way back. by AhYeah85 (Fri 27th Nov 2020 9:12am)
  • It's decent, the beer choice was fairly unspectacular the last time I was in and the food is fairly standard pub grub, but it's a cracking looking pub inside and out. It's got that country pub feel to it as well as being one of the few pubs you find at the end of a residential street, which although fairly common in London, is pretty rare up here. by AhYeah85 (Fri 27th Nov 2020 10:40am)
  • Pollok are a pretty big junior team in Scotland and play in the Southside and I think, regularly attract more punters than a fair number of league 1 and 2 teams. There's also a boozer in one corner of stadium, so not quite Griffin Park levels but something that might make you feel at home. by AhYeah85 (Fri 27th Nov 2020 10:16pm)
  • I stayed in Chiswick and Shepherds Bush for a few years and frequented Griffin Park a few times. There was a Brentford Celtic Supporters club that I hung about with and drank in a boozer just down from Griffin Park as well. You'll enjoy Pollok, theres some massive rivalries in junior football and the games against the Ayrshire teams are always lively. by AhYeah85 (Sat 28th Nov 2020 9:41am)

Also, your hilarious breakdown of football into its most basic terms for the anger displayed last night shows complete ignorance as to the reason the fans turned up in the first place, but don't let that get in the way of bashing 'the most entitled people on god's green earth' you absolute drama queen. by AhYeah85 (Mon 30th Nov 2020 10:41am)

  • >the latter down in no small part to scenes like those from last night And I understand that, but lets not exaggerate what happened last night or indeed the role of violence in football, it's not the 1980's anymore. Football fans have always been an easy target, primarily because the vast majority of fans are working class and the slightest element of unrest at football is amplified and is deliberate in perpetuating this myth that football fans are neanderthals, neds, bams and uneducated which is patronsing drivel. The fans shouldn't have been there during a pandemic but I completely understand and support their reasons for being there, it's as simple as that. by AhYeah85 (Mon 30th Nov 2020 11:19am)

  • It's fairly obvious, your ludicrous and child like statement about losing a football game and not even understanding how this could happen even if we weren't in the middle of a pandemic displays a complete lack of knowledge as to the seriousness of the decline of the team both on and off the pitch, the type of crap someone would come away with that doesn't attend football matches. by AhYeah85 (Mon 30th Nov 2020 12:03pm)
  • Do you get this annoyed when there are arrests for violence, sexual assault and drug offences at music festivals up and down the country or is just rare examples of football fans flinging a metal fence over that you've got a complete hardon for? Football violence is not as prominent as you think or indeed want it to be .Going to a football game in Scotland is entirely safe experience, organised violence is few and far between these days and the experience of going to a football game is now unrecognisable from the really bad days of the 1980's when casual culture and violence made football a pretty dangerous place. Some banger throwing a fence and a few folk getting mouthy at players is not some mass riot no matter how much you want it to be, just so that you can justify your own hatred of football fans and the working classes. >whereby the same teams fans turn violent at the slightest provocation And again, talk about hyperbole, fuck me, football fans on the rampage up and down the country every week, i'm surprised you ever leave your house. by AhYeah85 (Mon 30th Nov 2020 12:14pm)

  • My wider point here and the thing that frustrates me more than anything is the continued demonisation of football fans, it has been going on since Thatcher was in power and manifests its self in different ways now but it's still prevalent. You only have to look at the responses on here, people seem to think that football violence in this city is common and goes on week in and week out, hordes of football fans travelling the country trashing towns and cities when that just isn't true. Some roaster flinging a metal fence and some players getting abuse doesn't constitute a riot in anyones language, apart from this country. by AhYeah85 (Mon 30th Nov 2020 12:30pm)

  • That is essentially just 32 minutes of a mad, right wing, racist, spouting misinformation and lies. I could go through the whole thing and pick apart almost everything he said but I'll just pick a couple of of the fairly more explosive bullshit he hit out with. Kids of 5 and 6 years old with anal and vaginal tears as a result of child rape or exploitation, which is what he was suggesting, is utter bollocks. I work with all the major agencies in Govanhill (Police, Social Work, Housing, Environmental Health, Community Safety, Law centre etc etc) and there has been no mention of any incidents such as this being reported or investigated. He claims that Environmental Health don't visit Govanhill, Environmental Health have their own dedicated team based in Govanhill at Coplaw Street for fuck sake, I think it's the only area in the whole city where GCC has allocated a special Environmental Health Team to deal with the issues there. He claims that construction workers, gas workers etc are prevented from going into certain closes and don't work in the area after dark. Again, it's laughable how ludicrous that is, there are no closes in Govanhill that are off limits to contractors, there are certainly some dodgy closes but this lie that they can't go in them is nonsense. What we're dealing with here is a good old fashioned racist, referring to the roma community as 'they' and 'rats' in the video backs up that assertion. The video is just misinformation from start to finish and it's dangerous, it's done deliberately to try and stir up racial hatred, cunts an ex marine by the sounds of things and a meat head, so he ticks all the boxes. If he was as interested in improving some of the problems that still exist in Govanhill, he'd be dealing with the relevant agencies and passing on these nuggets of information that only he seems privy to and working with them to improve conditions. But he's not interested in that, hes only interested in furthering his own racist agenda, guys a fucking weirdo. by AhYeah85 (Tue 15th Dec 2020 9:34am)

That makes perfect sense doesn't it? They spunk their load too early and notify all and sundry of who they've arrested and where they've arrested them may impact the on going investigation, perfectly reasonable and also something that happens fairly regularly. >It's weird when you see politicians influencing the police not to publish details of crimes out of a misplaced fear of 'fuelling the far-right', does that mean they also keep details of far-right crime under-wraps out of fear of 'fueling the far-left'? There are plenty of times when Police don't publish the names of people arrested for a variety of reasons including the above. As for fuelling the far left, it's the far right that have a history of murder and violence, I can't think off the top of my head of any 'far left' folk murdering people in the name of their political cause which cannot be said of the far right i'm afraid.

Before you get to that stage though, I'd speak to them directly and explain that's it's still coming through and ask that they get the pipes under the floor checked. They might not want to pay for it now, but it's going to cost a hell of a lot more further down the line if they don't nip it in the bud. If they refuse then I'd get Environmental Health involved.

  • It's part of flat living I'm afraid, might be a pain in the tits but it's a risk you take buying a flat and that's the reason you've got insurance. You need to speak to the flat above and make sure they speak with their landlord, as they will need to get a plumber out to try and identify a source. by AhYeah85 (Mon 8th Feb 2021 7:50pm)
  • They wouldn't be liable for any damages unless you could prove negligence.

  • The article reads very well, everything she says is spot on and the shifting priority from cars to other modes of transport is exactly what I want to hear. The fact that main priorities seem to be to connect the city's poorer areas better is a great starting point in addition to this desire to be a modern and international city, which ultimately requires a modern transport system. Will be interesting to see what form this takes, with regards to the type of transport, routes etc as that ultimately is what will impact people most and we've had enough pie in the sky suggestions over the years that have went nowhere. by AhYeah85 (Wed 10th Feb 2021 11:37am)
  • Sounds as though there isn't total clarity on what was reported and what work took place. Because you have been charged a total share of the cost, that would suggest that communal work took place as opposed to work within a specific flat. What you need to do is ask the factor for a copy of the invoice they received from the contractors that carried out the work. This should include a description of exactly what work they carried out and that should help determine if it was communal, which I suspect it is. I'd also query the cost for any inspection as inspections happen all the time, yes there are some that are more time consuming and detailed than others, but there should be an agreed call out charge. by AhYeah85 (Wed 10th Feb 2021 12:45pm)
  • Just to be clear, are the people within this flat the owners of the flat or are they renting off a landlord, is it Housing Association? by AhYeah85 (Wed 10th Feb 2021 2:08pm)
  • I'm just having a read of their emergency contacts page just now and as you say, it states 'Where a repair is subsequently found to be private in nature, home owners will be jointly liable for all labour and material costs incurred up until the point of identification. Thereafter, the costs of any private repairs instructed will be the responsibility of the individual home owner'. That all makes sense to me. Therefore, the problem lies with the original reporting of the call as the owner has reported it as a communal issue, deliberately or mistakenly and as such the above terms and conditions have kicked in meaning that any cost up until the problem identified is split between all the owners. What I think you need to do, is find out from the contractors what their inspection actually entailed, because if they got there and the owner cleared up the misunderstanding and clarified that it was a problem within their flat and the inspection took place within their flat, then I would argue you're not liable for a share of the cost. On the other hand, if the contractors got there and spent half an hour, an hour, or longer looking at communal parts of the building for the source of the problem, then even though it was reported incorrectly, you'd be liable for that charge as per the T&C's on the website regarding out of hours calls. by AhYeah85 (Wed 10th Feb 2021 2:28pm)

You have one group of people that are pursuing equality and racial justice through peaceful protests and then you have Union Jack waving, Lonsdale wearing, immigrant hating, white men that want to 'defend are statues'. It's fairly obvious to me which group of individuals are the arseholes and it should be to you as well. by AhYeah85 (Thu 18th Feb 2021 3:15pm)
  • I think it just highlights how endemic racism is and has been in this country for hundreds of years. If you are a black person and pretty much every major city and town in the country has statues of slave traders, that is going to have an impact isn't it? And they're just fucking statues at the end of the day, thats the most important thing here, they don't have any feelings, it's just a plinth and some materials and do they define the people of this city in 2021? Of course they fucking don't. To me it signifies a progressiveness and openness, time doesn't stand still, those statues weren't there before they were erected, so take them down and replace them with something that the majority of this city can relate to. And who knows, maybe in 150 years, another group of people will come along and they want to remove the statues and change them. by AhYeah85 (Thu 18th Feb 2021 4:01pm)

  • This is such an important aspect of the issue around GCC that is so often forgotten. Since the introduction of austerity in 2010, council funding has reduced, services have suffered and some of the most vital aspects of council that serve the most vulnerable people in our city have been either been scaled back or done away with completely. The most important factor however, is that this is not unique to Glasgow, Councils up and down the country are struggling with funding and all because of the ideological driven policies of the tory supporting in implementing Austerity. There was a report last year that stated eight out of 10 councils in England were facing Bankrupcy, thats insane. In addition to that, Croydon council declared Bankrupcy at the end of last year and they are the second biggest London borough. It's an endemic problem up and down the country and there is a refuse issue up here that needs to be dealt with by taking a new approach, but this is happening all over the country. by AhYeah85 (Wed 24th Feb 2021 12:16pm)

  • The difference in Govanhill though is that the number of social housing units is actually increasing, private flats are being purchased by The Housing Association at a pretty reasonable rate. Add that to the fact Right To Buy is no longer an active policy, then it certainly reduces the risk of people who have lived there for years being forced out. It is being gentrified and we will continue to see a slow rise in flat prices as people who can't afford Strathbungo, Battlefield and Shawlands move over, but with the Housing Association increasing the number of social housing units it should limit that gentrification to a certain degree. by AhYeah85 (Thu 4th Mar 2021 9:15am)

It certainly doesn't surprise me that we've a relatively low recycling rate and I think more needs to be done to educate people and get out into communities and physically show people how to recycle properly. I've no doubt there's thousands of people, of all ages who simply don't know what goes where and just ignore it. It's all well and good for The Council talking about having a real presence in communities and using technology to tackle these issues, but it needs fucking done, too many projects in this city look good in a press release and then never come to anything which is why so many people are fairly cynical of anything they do. Theres a huge responsibility on the general population as well which shouldn't be ignored and over the last however many years, people's attitudes have changed for the worse. There's definitely a large minority of the population that are happy to drop litter and even worse, fly tip purely on the basis that 'someone else will deal with it' Id add as a caveat that I've said on here a million times that the rubbish issue is hugely exaggerated and it still is to a certain extent. Huge strides have been made in improving the city over the last 20 years, but it's nowhere near filling it's potential. A post covid universe presents the perfect opportunity to re-evaluate how the city works and what it should mean for the people who live here and who use it. by AhYeah85 (Thu 1st Apr 2021 10:11am)

  • If you're looking for somewhere vibrant and with a bit of culture then I'd avoid EK to be honest. It's a bit of a culture vacuum quite frankly and it's really, really big, so if you are at the arse end of nowhere (Lindsayfield/Greenwhills/Whitehills/Mossneuk) and you don't have a car you're going to feel very isolated very quickly. Lots of familys move there, and although it's not my thing, I see the attraction of getting a decent gaff at a reasonable price and if you've got a car then everything is accessible. But going by what you're saying, thats not the situation you're in therefore I'd have a look elsewhere If I were you. by AhYeah85 (Mon 19th Apr 2021 2:01pm)

  • I agree with everything you've said, only difference is that I am pro independence and exactly for the reason you said, I think it might go someway to making Scotland a fairer place to live. The narrative in this country, starting with Blair and his cronies was to blame all the ills on the jobless, single mums, immigrants and benefits cheats then in the last 10 years or so we've really focused in on immigration resulting in brexit and this seemingly never ending cycle of incompetent tory cunts taking the top job. All the while, the vilification of the most vulnerable in society has led to benefit cuts, universal credit, state aid being cut, all of which I hope would be corrected in an Independent Scotland. by AhYeah85 (Fri 7th May 2021 9:38am)

The big difference this time though is that lots of vaccinations should prevent the level of infection rising as it has previously and more importantly, from a medical standpoint we understand the virus much better now than we ever have, so that should stand us in good stead in trying to tackle further spikes. by AhYeah85 (Tue 11th May 2021 10:47am)

  • As everyone has touched on, it was substantially cheaper than the west end and the flats are just as nice in plenty of areas. Furthermore, and this applies more pre pandemic, but it's an absolute doddle to get into town from The Southside. Anyone going to work, socialising in town can stroll it in 45 mins from Shawlands, even quicker from Govanhill and buses and trains get you in in no time. West End isn't totally cut off either as you can get the bus or walk down to Bridge Street and you're at Kelvinbridge in under 10 minutes. You can also cycle via Vicky Road or Pollokshaws Road, both of which offer an easy alternative. Govanhill, Cathcart Road, Victoria Road and parts of Strathbungo, are the closest things I've seen to London in Glasgow. by AhYeah85 (Tue 11th May 2021 4:38pm)

  • Double check that excess, there is absolutely no way the excess is £3,000. Either way, you need to claim via your buildings insurance, they'll send someone out to survey the damage and carry out the repairs.

  • >I don't think you normally pay the excess if you are not the one at fault, really not sure though. Not the case at all I'm afraid and a common misconception.

  • Everything is coming out, the ball bearings themselves have escaped and some of the casing has rusted so badly that it has essentially attached its self to the axel that holds the wheel in place. I've been using lubricant and using a dremel to try and cut the casing to release the pressure so that I can remove the axel but it is taking ages. by AhYeah85 (Wed 7th Jul 2021 11:47am)

  • I grew up in EK and now live about five or six miles away and I very rarely return to socialise as most of my mates that I grew up with have moved elsewhere, but the grandparents still stay there so I can be up two or three times a week at the moment. I was actually up on Sunday and my Dad took me and the wean to a park which was on a route I used to walk to school and it was fucking grim man, really cemented why I try and limit my time there. It's like a lot of those towns outside big cities in that it's quite cliquey to a certain degree, there's not much to do and there's still plenty of losers that I used to go run about with that still live and socialise there. It's a pretty big place but it feels really isolated to me now. I left when I was 24 to move to London and that was 12 years ago, so I just don't get that nostalgia that I maybe did at one point, I just find it all a bit grim and two or three visits a week, for a couple of hours or so is more than enough. by AhYeah85 (Tue 13th Jul 2021 11:12am)

I actually get much more nostalgic visiting London than I do where I grew up. by AhYeah85 (Tue 13th Jul 2021 12:11pm)

  • But these local communities are being exploited by religion, they always have been. I was raised a catholic, grand parents on both sides with fucking season tickets for the chapel, I've seen the damage it does to people, the guilt and shame that people carry with them for their whole lives as a result of a decision that they made that went against the chapel, or even worse, they were born gay and demonised in their local communities. I've no sympathy for any religious organisation, not least the Catholic Church and I can only hope that the trend of less people attending church and less people prescribing themselves to organised religion continues. by AhYeah85 (Wed 28th Jul 2021 2:22pm)

  • I don't think it's anti development as such, but more anti developers. You and I both know what Tradeston is going to look like in five years time and thats basically the same as any major development of this kind in any other major city in the UK. They are identikit rubbish and that area will soon be full of starbucks, Costas, All Bar one's, Slug and Lettuce, Leon and a Pret A Manger horrendous places that take no interest or play a part in the local community. And the reason for this is that all across the country for the last 12 years, councils have been decimated, budgets have been decimated, services and resources cut, time and time again. The quickest way for the councils to make a lot of money and make up that shortfall is to sell off land to these huge corporations or into the hand of a small bunch of wealthy developers, who build their shitty buildings, make a mint and then fuck off, it's rinse and repeat all over the country. by AhYeah85 (Wed 13th Oct 2021 10:41am)

  • If he's 14 and stabbing folk, he's been let down, there's absolutely no debate to be had there.

It's why Brexit happened and it's why there's the Independence movement. Thats not why brexit happened and it's certainly not why there's an independence movement. Brexit was the outcome of twenty years of targeted attacks by political parties, Labour included, on immigrants. >Look at Scotland's councils, they're such a state because people think they're voting in an independence referendum when they go to the polls at a local election. What councils do you mean in partuclar? If Glasgow, you just don't like them because it's run by the SNP and the reality is every Council is this country has suffered as a result of 10 years of austerity. >People don't seem to have the time to follow what actually goes one, so we're left with 'Tories bad, therefore an independent Scotland would be good' which, obviously, is insane. It's like children being SO into Justin Bieber or something, and thinking everybody else should just DIE I don't even know what this means, but the Tories are bad, there's no debate there. >I'm sure plenty of people have plenty of good reasons for their decisions but the way it comes across online nowadays makes a lot of Nationalists look like screaming babies. "Bahaha! You don't support the SNP! you TORY!" The thing is, you're the other cheek of the same arse. You're constantly slating Sturgeon, SNP, you've got a massive hardon for them, just like their fanatics have, you're no different. >Nationalism in general is a pretty sensitive issue so when the voice of it comes across the way that it does, there isn't much of a difference between the anti-Englishness on display here and the straight-up racism that these kilted cyber-warriors pretend to despise. Where is this anti englishness on display here? I don't see it. This tactic of trying to conflate wanting an independent Scotland with Anti English is just so fucking weak. The problem for people like you, is that actually, the vast majority of independent supporters are actually like me. I've never been on an independence march in my puff, I think the SNP are ok but they leave me feeling a bit cold and I certainly don't crow about on twitter yelling how wonderful The First Minister is, most people think like that but that doesn't help you're weird obsession with the stranger elements of SNP fandom, you're just at the otherside of that, the exact same as those weirdo's. by AhYeah85 (Thu 11th Nov 2021 10:47am)

The solution most definitely is not to reduce the governments role in this. What better motivation for property developers and building companies to increase profits by building sub standard housing, using cheaper materials, cheaper labour etc all with the goal of increasing their bottom line as opposed to providing, safe, warm and quality housing. And Scotland is sitting with loads of empty houses btw, nearly 50 thousand empty homes in Scotland. >If you restrict rent prices, suddenly being a landlord becomes financially untenable.

  • I've never read the book and barely know anything about it. What I did like about it was that the stakes felt high almost immediately, there was a wee synopsis at the start and then it was straight into it. I often feel with a lot of these huge, big budget movies, they are painfully slow and are mainly an exercise in self indulgence for three hours, where as this went straight for it from the get go which I enjoyed. As you mentioned, that may have been at the expense of some details from the book but it worked for me. by AhYeah85 (Thu 30th Dec 2021 10:15am)

The city Centre constantly takes a bashing on here and whilst there are problems, I just don't recognise the description of it a lot of the time. There are certain parts of it that are scruffy as fuck (four corners, trongate, sauchiehall Street past West Nile Street) but large swatches of it are beautiful and a million times better than it was 20-25 years ago. What it may need to do is change it's focus to more concentrated areas with specific focus on independent boutiques and clothes shops, fabric shops, art shops etc etc. I can only speak for myself but yer Silverburns, and Braeheads are just homogenous hell holes with dreadful shops like River Island, Topman and Burtons. Fuck me, Silverburn even has a full shop dedicated to New Builders with 'Gin O Clock' Signs and 'It's prosecco time' doormats, it's hell on earth. The city centre needs to diversify to survive, but it's a tragedy that its being marginalised by such inferior places like Silverburn and Braehead. by AhYeah85 (Wed 19th Jan 2022 1:02pm)

It's a part of the fabric of the city and is a force for good the vast majority of the time.

  • I stayed in Farme Cross (Just across from the big Tesco) for a few years up until the start of 2018 and it was fine. The Main Street and the arcade certainly aren't the most pleasing on the eye but they've got your essentials and it's always busy, which I really liked. Lidl, Aldi, Tesco all within walking distance of each other, you can get to Glasgow Green fairly quickly as well, which is great during the summer. For me though, undoubtedly the main advantage of living there was the public transport. I didn't drive at that time and trains were excellent, every 15 mins or so and you can be in the city centre in under 10 mins and Finnieston in about 15. Buses are pretty decent and you can get 18, 267, 263 etc all into town and it'll take you 25 mins or so. Buses upto Duke Street and over to the southside as well (7 & 90). Depends on your perspective, but there's not a lot of great places in Ruggy in terms of boozers, cafes, restaraunts but you are so well connected to the rest of the city that you can be anywhere else fairly quickly. by AhYeah85 (Thu 10th Feb 2022 11:16am)

I worked in housing for years and we'd often get private tenants coming in looking for advise and those guys were always happy to help and ensure that you are actually getting all the money you are entitled to to help with utility bills.

  • Your right, it goes much deeper in the sense of how effective has local government really been in the last 30 or 40 years and how it has been run by those in charge. Nevertheless, the driving force in the last 10 years has been tory cuts, Councils up and down Great Britain have been up against it an we are seeing vital services being cut and almost always it is the most vulnerable that suffer as a result. by AhYeah85 (Wed 16th Mar 2022 3:22pm)

  • At the risk of repeating myself in here again and again, The Council budgets over the last 12 years have been decimated as a result of an ideological program of Austerity. There's definitely more The Council could be doing but these are the exact symptoms you would expect of funding and resources being scaled back on an incredible level. by AhYeah85 (Thu 31st Mar 2022 11:02am)
  • >Sure, i’ll accept that Glasgow has disproportionately received worse budget cuts compared to other Scottish Cities, but not UK ones. That just isn't true, councils in cities all over the UK have seen their budgets eroded,. I can't remember the instances of the top of my head, but there have been councils that have declared bankruptcy in England, so it's not just a Glasgow problem, it's a problem all over Britain. >I’m finding it really hard to blame Austerity purely when they can somehow find £150,000 in the budget for “filming incentive schemes”. Sure, the money spent by production is going back into our economy but the council only received around £35,000 back over almost 10 years which is ridiculous. Are you referring to the filming of bat girl etc? I don't particularly have a problem with that and it's not a case of one or other, they're not choosing to film Bat Girl and shut down hostels, the hostels were going to be shut irregardless of batgirl filming here. And you're right, it is the poorest areas that suffer and Austerity is the main driver behind that, there's no debate around that. >I can’t confidently say anymore that the SNP are a party of the people. I'm not entirely sure they ever where. They appealed to people like me for a period as a staunch left winger because they filled a gap where Labour should have been but I don't think thats their instincts. >It’s obvious the people in power in Glasgow are inept. You can’t just celebrate the SNP for every success and then point to Westminster for every failure, that’s just not how it works. You might well be right on this regarding their ineptitude and theirs plenty to support that theory, but I am becoming more and more convinced that the models of Local Government in this country have completely failed, I don't think local government in this country works anymore. How we fix that, I don't know, but the one thing we could certainly do is provide our council with the budgets and resources they require to deliver a decent service to residents. by AhYeah85 (Thu 31st Mar 2022 12:21pm)
  • > That’s exactly what i’m saying?

  • You make a fair point to a certain degree and the financial disparity has only been widened by the financial model of European football in the last 30 years which has meant we've (Celtic) have been able to source millions of pounds despite getting humped in Europe for nearly two decades. Nevertheless, the other big clubs in the country (Aberdeen, Hearts hibs and Rangers obviously) have been run terribly on and off the pitch in the last 30 years. Not one of those teams has adopted a modern approach to football, the style is deplorable, it's from a by gone age. It's no coincidence that despite us rebuilding a team, we are close to winning the league, primarily because we have a manager that has a modern, forward thinking philosophy. The biggest thing holding almost all of the teams back, is their insistence on continuing to adopt such an insular approach to a modern game. Thats why we've not qualified for a world cup in over twenty years although that will hopefully change this year. by AhYeah85 (Sun 3rd Apr 2022 7:17pm)

  • The last 12 years we've seen the Tories cut funds and resources to schools, social work, hostels, rehabilitation centres, hospitals, mental health facilities, The Police, literally every agency that can help in preventing young children from falling between the cracks and getting help has been decimated. It's no coincidence that as a result we are seeing more and more kids indulging in ASB and the majority of them will be from poor and vulnerable backgrounds, the exact people who are effected most by these cuts. Aye there were Ned's 20 years ago, bit we've seen a fair bit of stability in serious crime in this city previously due to the way it was tackled and the allocation of funds.

  • The whole blaming English people for property prices rising does have a tinge of nastiness to it, there's no doubt about it. Also, property prices in this city have been on the rise for sometime, when I bought a gaff we were priced out numerous times as properties were going for way over the HR value and that was in 2017, so it's not been this increase thats appeared overnight, it's been happening for sometime. Also, and this cannot be stressed enough, this is not unique to Glasgow. You go to any big city in the UK and the struggle to get on the housing ladder is a major issue, one that's been exacesrba6ted by a pandemic but one thats been happening for years.

  • There's no doubt in my mind thats even more prevalent now as a result of austerity and the rising living costs that have been a constant in the last decade. Young people working long hours, paying exorbitant rent and unable to save up to but a flat or a house etc, possibly still at their parents and a cocaine fuelled weekend is really their only opportunity to let loose and forget the stresses of their working week. It's absolutely rampant at the football as well, home and away games cubicles full off wee guys on shite gear from morning till night. by AhYeah85 (Mon 4th Jul 2022 3:36pm)
  • I was thinking the exact same. Much like everything else in this broken country (healthcare, education, social care, childrens homes and homelesness) they have been monetised to ensure private companies are skimming off the top to payout to shareholders, it's the primary sign of a country that is sick and a system that is broken. by AhYeah85 (Tue 5th Jul 2022 8:58am)
  • And Labour as well btw under Blair. We've basically had forty years of slight variations of Thatcher and her brand of economics whilst the rich get richer and consecutive governments attack immigrants and remove services from those that need it most.

Add to that, essentially 40 years of successive governments employing the same free market policies and principles and it's the working class that have once again suffered, whilst those with the most money, who are almost always those in positions of power, whether it be government or huge corporations get richer and richer. Those providing front line services, such as refuse workers, teachers, nurses, social workers etc have for too long been treated with utter contempt, they've every right to say enough is enough and take whatever action is necessary to demand better pay and conditions. by AhYeah85 (Tue 23rd Aug 2022 7:37pm)

  • Started a new job last week in the city centre and the early indications are they want you in the office three times a week. I'm coming in from Clarkston way, so decided that the bus would be better as it's cheaper and just as fast door to door as the train but fuck me, it's been hell on earth and I'm already dreading having to come in three days a week for the foreseeable. by AhYeah85 (Mon 19th Dec 2022 9:02am)
  • Yeah, I think I'll need to revaluate my decision in the New Year, but it was primarily driven by cost at the minute as going in three times a week means I need to buy a monthly pass to get the best value and the bus is something like £50 and the train was closer to £80, I think. Incidentally, the bus journeys in are fine (although cramped single deckers, fucking roasting, no windows open etc),but getting home is a fucking nightmare, numerous buses full and not stopping etc, sporadic in terms of there actually turning up means it's almost double the time door to door getting home. Incidentally, I've never commuted by train when I've worked in Glasgow, bus has always been the best and sometimes only realistic option, but my station is a 10 min walk from the gaff and I might just need to pay that extra bit of month for that wee bit more space and smoother journey. by AhYeah85 (Mon 19th Dec 2022 9:40am)

Theres a book by Stephanie Kelton called 'The Deficit Myth' which properly articulates exactly what you are saying, that currency issuing countries like the UK, the BOE, finances all government expenditure, rather than the taxpayer and that is true, but it's not framed like that in the the capitalist free market in which we operate. Unfortunately however, all of your main political parties have shaped the narrative to make people think a government must tax and borrow before it spends, which frankly, is a power of old shite, driven home by Thatcher in the early 80's and clung to by almost every mainstream political party since unfortunately. by AhYeah85 (Thu 19th Jan 2023 3:58pm)

  • It's the same as anywhere really, it's always been determined by whoever your family supports and it just happened to be the case and fairly unique to these islands that one set of supporters were mainly catholic and the others were protestant. Nowadays religion plays so little part in peoples everyday lives but they still cling onto it in some respect and will go to chapel or church a handful of times a year and that dictates what school they send their kids to and they'll mostly be surrounded by people who support the same team. The biggest difference in the rivalry in 2023 is more political, with Celtics biggest fan group being left wing, pro immigration, pro refugee, united Ireland, pro Palestine etc, whereas the other mob biggest fan group is right wing, pro union, royalist, etc etc. That's not applicable across the board though, most of my mates that are Rangers fans are vehemently left wing and our board is full of Tories like Bankier & Nicholson etc. But all of this stuff is what makes it such a great rivalry and what makes football so compelling. Its predominantly a place for working class men and women, it's socio political and that's the case in almost every country where football is the main sport, there are left and right wing teams and it's all the better for it. it's a place for political expression and for working class people to use their voice, see Besiktas in Turkey just this past weekend as a great example and that partly explains why Governments have been continue to disproportionately target football fans across the world. by AhYeah85 (Wed 1st Mar 2023 9:52am)

  • Factor fees doubling in less than 12 months for standard factoring service is unheard of. The only reason your monthly cost would rise that much is if there is a major project on the building which your're now paying for and which the Factor, particularly a Housing Association would have communicated with you about or you're in such substantial arrears that they have increased the monthly payments to make up the shortfall so as to prevent them taking legal action. by AhYeah85 (Fri 3rd Mar 2023 7:14pm)
  • If you're not in arrears then it must be some sort of major repairs project. You mentioned that the Housing Association was the factor, check your comms with them, they must have sent you something in relation to the increase because an icnrease of that amount, particularly from the local HA is unprecedented. by AhYeah85 (Fri 3rd Mar 2023 7:26pm)

  • There's a small element of truth to that, but coke is also a symptom of the terrible economic conditions that have been fostered upon this country and particularly young people in the last 15 years. If you can't get a well paid, permanent job, you can't save properly and if you could save you're unlikely to be able to afford to buy a house or a flat unless you're inheriting money from somewhere.

  • The Gallowgate is full of Celtic pubs, Saracen Head, Hoops Bar, The Squirrel- and a few others, and you'll get a decent atmosphere in all of those. If you're coming from Edinburgh, the Gallowgate is only a 10 minute walk away. If you want to get a little bit closer to the stadium both The Wee Mans Bar and The Drover further up the Gallowgate will be decent although they will be super busy before the game, so if you wanted to get in there you'd need to head in very early. There are a couple of pubs right outside the stadium, The Real McCoy and The Turnstiles that again are always full before games and full of half time leavers and there are a few up at Parkhead Cross. I've had a few beers in The Prince Charlie before games and I suspect they'll be jumping as well, but well worth it if it's your first experience of the game, so enjoy it. by AhYeah85 (Tue 4th Apr 2023 9:44am)

  • It's dependent on lots of different factors, but primarily things like the type of accomodation you require, your current accomodation and whether you're overcrowded, your finances, your health, your personal circumstances i.e are you fleeing domestic violence or harrassment, do you need to be closer to family if you are ill or they are ill. If you're a single person in a private let and you can afford it, even if it is extorionate, then you're going to struggle to get social accomodation. And I don't know this persons personal circumstances, but social housing wasn't created to allow tenants from the private sector to seek cheaper housing in the social sector. Folk with the needs outlined above will always be given priority and thats the way it should be. by AhYeah85 (Mon 3rd Jul 2023 9:37am)

To suggest however that it's not safe to walk home along at night in any city in Europe is a total fallacy. There will be hundreds of people that do it in this city every weekend and thousands across Europe who do the same. It's infinitely more dangerous for women, and we all know the lengths woman go to protect themselves when walking alone at night, but this idea that every major city is some sort of lawless no go zone after dark is the stuff of fantasy. by AhYeah85 (Thu 31st Aug 2023 10:38am)

  • This might be the most simplified definition of gentrification I've ever seen. >this all leads to flats and houses in the area having, at times, a quite drastic rise in value No it doesn't. >the ones that sell, sell their property at far higher price than they thought possible when they moved into area and the ones that stay now live in a nicer, cleaner more attractive area improving their quality of life But how many of those people within those areas actually own their home? I wouldn't imagine its the majority and the people that sell are the ones that can afford to, there will be plenty of flat owners in say, Govanhill for example, who actually can't afford to move or indeed don't want to so they can't cash in. >People honestly blast gentrification because its "cool" to, but they dont really understand what it is. The irony of this brah. >do people who hate gentrification want Glasgow to remain the genuine 2nd world slum it was in the 70-80s? It's not as black and white as that. 'Gentrification' can have positive impacts on areas, but there are downsides for the people that live there which you haven't once acknowledged, only referencing the fact that those that might own a home will make more money from it as if that is the be all and end all here. by AhYeah85 (Wed 20th Sep 2023 3:41pm)

As for SIMD, I don't really know how helpful it is in terms of house buying and doesn't in anyway take into consideration the experience of people living in what they consider to be the most deprived areas. by AhYeah85 (Wed 4th Oct 2023 11:24am)

  • A bit of anecdotal evidence, but that is absolutely happening where I live and I've seen plenty of properties reduced in price over the last 12 months. More specifically, there's a house in my street that has been on the market for about 9 months. Now my street is fine, not the prettiest houses but within the catchment area for good schools, there's lots of first time buyers and houses sell within days and weeks at the latest. This house has been on at a ludicrously inflated price and again anecdotal, but driven by what the seller wants to recoup for it, rather than what the Surveyor actually thinks its worth and it's the first time I've actually seen a property not sell because people realise they are being asked to pay way above what the properties worth. by AhYeah85 (Thu 12th Oct 2023 10:53am)

  • It's not just about them becoming 'less shit'. The areas that become gentrified are always working class areas and in London, Berlin, New York and numerous other examples it forces people out of the areas they grew up, areas they work and areas where they have connections, primarily as a result of gentrification leading to a surge in property prices. There's gentrification happening in Glasgow, Govanhill is the most obvious example but things like the scrapping the right to buy will prevent full scale gentrification although that's not to say local people aren't being forced out due to rising prices. by AhYeah85 (Tue 14th Nov 2023 7:46pm)

  • Not directly but government policies have a huge impact on how people raise their kids, particularly people in more deprived areas. Local services for kids have been stripped back and in some cases completely eradicated for the last 15 years and more. In instances where there are troubled kids, parents should expect the government to provide local councils with enough resources to help them through things like social services etc, those resources aren't there anymore and parents and kids are abandoned to their own devices and that results in kids falling through the cracks and not getting the help they need. The cost of living crisis, set in motion by this government and plenty before it by not paying people proper wages means folk have to take on two/three jobs just to make ends meet and parenting their children becomes something on their list rather than a priority. No one decides when they have kids that they are going to turn them into little shits. There's economic factors, social factors, historical trauma, complex family situations all of which have been exacerbated by 13 years of the poorest being targeted by this government. Have a bit more empathy for people. by AhYeah85 (Fri 1st Dec 2023 9:20am)

  • The decision to freeze council tax is a strange one although not entirely unsurprising at this moment in time given the fact that the price of everything else is rising. As for the Scot Gov, their funding comes from Westminster so their hands are tied to an extent, but much like their counterparts down South they've very little in the way of creative thinking when it comes to making their money go further unless its cuts.
