We’re adopting a greyhound at the end of the week and dogs off the lead is one of my main worries when walking her. I see so many dogs in Queen’s Park that have terrible recall and their owners just do nothing. These owners would be the first to have a go at me if my dog got freaked by their fluffy cockapoo running up to my prey driven greyhound. by donnygal (Sun 18th Apr 2021 11:17am)

Donating as soon as I get paid. This place gave me my work experience when I was in college and when I was struggling for money, they sorted me with food vouchers, drove me to the food bank and even offered to give me money out of their own pocket for food. An excellent charity and organisation, they do so so much for the working class of Govan and Glasgow as a whole by donnygal (Thu 6th May 2021 11:21pm)

Anyone in G44 had any luck with this? I filled in the online form and was told I wasn’t eligible ☹️ by donnygal (Thu 20th May 2021 7:59pm)

Came here for a college trip 6 years ago and fell in love with the place. Then I met a guy who lived here and within 6 months, I’d moved here. No longer with the same guy but love Glasgow and don’t plan on leaving any time soon by donnygal (Thu 20th May 2021 8:02pm)

Not only the density of population but it’s a working class city. A lot of people work with the public and don’t have the luxury of working from home not to mention employers won’t pay sick pay if you have to self-isolate by donnygal (Fri 21st May 2021 1:24pm)

I’m the same, always ended up walking out the hairdressers disappointed. I go to Natalie at Blond on Holmlea Road now and she’s amazing! by donnygal (Mon 21st Jun 2021 3:57pm)

I used to live on High Street and I’m pretty certain I was band B by donnygal (Thu 29th Jul 2021 10:20am)

I have the Gett app which lets you order a black hack wherever you are at a fixed price. If I’m needing a taxi and struggling I order one there and one on Uber and the first that gets a driver gets to take my money. Gett’s a bit more expensive but drivers are always nice and it means you can leave a review/have their reg number to complain by donnygal (Sat 21st Aug 2021 5:01pm)

The Anchor on Tollcross Road. Or any pub on Tollcross Road tbf by donnygal (Sun 22nd Aug 2021 11:01am)

Alias Computing in the Southside by donnygal (Sun 29th Aug 2021 6:37pm)

The Fifteen on Clarkston Road is the best Chinese I’ve had in Glasgow by donnygal (Thu 9th Sep 2021 6:00pm)

Before I was lucky enough to start working from home I used to be late for work almost every single day because of First bus and I’d be back home so late in the evening too. I started writing to their CEO but he eventually told me that I wouldn’t receive any replies anymore because I called him a capitalist pig lol by donnygal (Mon 4th Oct 2021 5:39pm)

I’ve only done them when I’m going on a night out/a gig or travelling outside of Glasgow (I had to go to a wedding last month) and if I’m feeling unwell. I honestly despise doing them and my partner once threw up ON ME when he was doing one so I try to avoid them now 😂 by donnygal (Fri 8th Oct 2021 8:29pm)

Live in the Southside and got one of these the other week, so creepy by donnygal (Mon 11th Oct 2021 4:22pm)

Furniture charity shops take flat pack furniture by donnygal (Fri 15th Oct 2021 1:20pm)

Fellow Irish person living in Glasgow here and I couldn’t agree more. The Irish housing market and the FF/FG government is an absolute shambles. Scotland has a lot to work on but compared to Ireland, it does so much more for it’s citizens. Tog é go bog é mo chara by donnygal (Fri 29th Oct 2021 4:17pm)

The point of a labour strike is to piss enough if the general public off that the employer is so inundated with complaints that they have to listen to the employees demands. Like, literally always has been the point of strikes by donnygal (Thu 4th Nov 2021 10:22am)

Super Bario which is just off Trongate. It’s a pub that has all vintage arcade games that you can play! I’m also always just a fan of a game of pool for a date night, Drury Street pub is great for pool by donnygal (Thu 4th Nov 2021 5:42pm)

Legally you have to have a working extractor fan in the bathroom of a rented flat in Scotland by donnygal (Thu 11th Nov 2021 7:27pm)

DHL. Used to work somewhere that was a DHL drop off point and we’d get a lot of people that had been on whiskey tours sending it abroad and it was fine. Plus we had a huge handbook of what could and couldn’t be sent to each country by donnygal (Sat 20th Nov 2021 8:13pm)

The Belle on Great Western Road is always quite quiet and sometimes has a lovely open fire too by donnygal (Mon 29th Nov 2021 6:44am)

Email their CEO to complain and your local councillor. I did this and got two weeks free travel because I’d had a monthly ticket by donnygal (Mon 6th Dec 2021 10:24am)

Yeah it’s a group on Facebook by donnygal (Fri 14th Jan 2022 9:27pm)

Link [here](https://www.facebook.com/groups/battlefieldcommunity/?ref=share) And yeah I’m from Donegal 😂 by donnygal (Sat 15th Jan 2022 9:52am)

Being an Irish Catholic is no longer just about religion, it’s a culture thing by donnygal (Wed 19th Jan 2022 9:04pm)

IRA: 368 Loyalist paramilitaries: 162 British Army, RUC, etc. (mainly catholics killed): 1049 by donnygal (Wed 19th Jan 2022 9:08pm)

Just, FYI, in case you didn’t notice, the source I’ve used is from the research department of Ulster University by donnygal (Wed 19th Jan 2022 10:51pm)

Source: https://cain.ulster.ac.uk/sutton/tables/Status.html Your source is a clearly biased one that you’ve found from the depths of Loyalist Facebook. by donnygal (Wed 19th Jan 2022 10:51pm)

I’m embarrassing myself? You’re sat there talking on Reddit about a conflict you know nothing about that happened in a country you’ve never lived in. I lived there, in a mixed religion family and you want to preach to me about deaths during the Troubles? Get over yourself and deal with problems in your own country by donnygal (Wed 19th Jan 2022 11:09pm)

Seems to be a trend right now of small businesses set up by people that have no clue how to run a business or treat employees by donnygal (Tue 1st Feb 2022 2:28pm)

I’ve managed to swerve TP somehow even though I’ve worked in most call centres but yeah, heard many horror stories, probs one of the worst from what I’ve heard by donnygal (Tue 1st Feb 2022 2:26pm)

Sad to hear that they treated you badly, I thought they were semi okay from my experience but seemingly not ☹️ by donnygal (Tue 1st Feb 2022 2:25pm)

I worked for Capita and tried to make a complaint to HR and they told me they didn’t have a HR department 😂 by donnygal (Tue 1st Feb 2022 3:41pm)

It’s mind numbingly boring tbf 😂 by donnygal (Tue 1st Feb 2022 5:52pm)

I second this, I’m a member of Unite! by donnygal (Tue 1st Feb 2022 5:52pm)

Did not know this but glad I do now! by donnygal (Tue 1st Feb 2022 5:50pm)

Just don’t tell them that you’re a student by donnygal (Tue 15th Feb 2022 1:07pm)

If OP’s partner is only now becoming a student after working previously, a background check etc. is going to only show that and won’t mention being a student. Also, as they’re coming from abroad, background checks are much more difficult to complete by donnygal (Tue 15th Feb 2022 5:22pm)

If the OP is moving here because their partner is becoming a student but not a student yet and therefore has been working, background checks are going to show up their work prior to becoming a student. Also, as they’re coming from abroad, background checks would be difficult to conduct by donnygal (Tue 15th Feb 2022 5:21pm)

Cathouse, Buff Club or Garage are the only places I know are defs open on Wednesdays by donnygal (Fri 18th Feb 2022 1:30pm)

I got my greyhound from them too! So easy to adopt from them by donnygal (Wed 23rd Feb 2022 6:40pm)

Depending on the luggage that you’re planning on bringing with you, I find the train cheaper. I book about a month in advance using the Trainline and it costs around £100 for a return. In contrast, flying can cost over £100 once you’ve added any bags. Especially considering most airlines don’t even let you have cabin baggage anymore without paying. The train you can bring what you like and I find it much more comfortable and less stressful by donnygal (Mon 7th Mar 2022 11:09pm)

13th Note is my favourite by donnygal (Thu 17th Mar 2022 4:48pm)

There was a group in Govanhill of Irish speakers that I think did lessons but I’m not sure if it’s still going. Also highly likely it was Ulster Irish due to the high amount of Donegal folk (myself included) living in the Southside by donnygal (Fri 25th Mar 2022 9:31pm)

My partner did this when he was young. They also always give each other gifts on Easter? I’m from Ireland and Easter for me was mainly mass, chocolate and a Sunday roast so it baffles me by donnygal (Mon 18th Apr 2022 7:04am)

Have a back up planned for if you get knocked back from Polo, it’s notorious for not letting folk in for ridiculous reasons by donnygal (Mon 18th Apr 2022 2:04pm)

Don’t get glasses online. I used to work in an opticians and the reason they do all the mad measurements with the glasses on is so that the lenses fit your eyes perfectly. If you shop online for prescription glasses, you’re very unlikely to get glasses that fit and might end up making your eyesight worse over time by donnygal (Fri 22nd Apr 2022 3:19pm)

Broadcast now have a DnB night every Tuesday called Midnight Bass, not been yet but I know some of the DJs they’ve had on are class by donnygal (Tue 14th Jun 2022 2:01pm)

I’m 26 and go out maybe once a month for a late one in town. My methods if I’m out without my partner are to try every single possible taxi option until I eventually get one that’s usually over priced but as a woman getting home on my own that’s the only choice. If I’m with a friend who lives closer to town, I’ll walk to theirs and try for a taxi from there or stay over. Me and my partner are going out on Saturday tho and planning to try the night bus now that they’re back running by donnygal (Thu 16th Jun 2022 11:20am)

The issue with the buses is that no one that can change anything (council etc.) listen to you when you complain. Pre-pandemic I worked in Maryhill and had to travel from the Southside every day. Almost every day I was either late to work or late getting back. I complained to First Bus every single time and even emailed the CEO a few times until he told me to stop emailing him. When I contact my local councillor, all First did was send me a free week bus pass to compensate for one instance I’d reported. First don’t care and I honestly don’t think the council do either. I’m lucky enough to still work from home but if I was asked back to the office I’d probably start learning to drive almost immediately. by donnygal (Sat 18th Jun 2022 11:29am)

Mine is exactly the same, she’s a greyhound and loves to run about the garden but in public she can’t be trusted. She’s also scared sometimes by other dogs which makes it even more annoying when random dogs run up to her by donnygal (Tue 21st Jun 2022 9:41pm)

Glad you said this, I looked in to bringing my dog on a plane out of curiosity just cause I thought it’d be fun to bring her on holiday and there are so many horror stories of pets being dehydrated/starving and scared when they’re off the flight. Not worth it ☹️ by donnygal (Mon 27th Jun 2022 12:41pm)

That’s part of the reason I think it’s so prevalent. Cheaper to split a bag with pals than buy over priced drinks by donnygal (Mon 4th Jul 2022 4:14pm)

Thank you for putting in to words all of my current frustrations with this city and why I want to leave it 👏🏻 by donnygal (Mon 4th Jul 2022 10:27pm)

I’m from Ireland lived here for 6 years now, it’s changed so much in that time. I’m trying to persuade my partner that moving back to Ireland could be an option by donnygal (Tue 5th Jul 2022 11:24am)

I have a weekend ticket and after last night, I wish I didn’t. Full of the most awful teenagers that Glasgow has to offer. They were all steamin or out their nut on eccies. They had 0 respect for people around them who were also trying to have a good time, constantly talking while there’s a literal band playing and they’ve paid to see them. All of them were arguing with stewards and security. I got there at 2pm and within five minutes I saw a group of teenage girls being escorted out by security and one of them has pissed herself. If organisers aren’t careful, it’ll be completely cancelled just like T in the Park qas by donnygal (Sat 9th Jul 2022 12:20pm)

That’s the thing, I don’t care about young ones having fun but making a mess of themselves and ruining it for everyone else is just annoying by donnygal (Sat 9th Jul 2022 3:46pm)

The Red Onion have a pre-theatre menu that’s cheap and the restaurant is really nice by donnygal (Sat 16th Jul 2022 7:57pm)

The only thing I can think of is data entry but those jobs are hard to come by. Honestly, I used to have crippling social anxiety and now since working in call centres most of my adult life and going to therapy, I hardly have it anymore. It’s scary af at first, I had a full blown panic attack when I had to take my first phone call but once you get used to it, it actually helps you get over those anxieties. by donnygal (Tue 19th Jul 2022 8:43am)

West of Scotland Greyhound trust are great. We got our dog from there and there was none of these ridiculously harsh rules or anything and it was only about £100 donation. If you would be interested in a greyhound or other sighthound then I’m happy to give advice. (P.S. they are the most low energy dog you can get and so well behaved) by donnygal (Tue 19th Jul 2022 2:14pm)

Please do this!!! Dunno if you’ve seen the videos on TikTok of a guy who asks for references from landlords before renting but it’s a similar thing, holds them accountable by donnygal (Tue 19th Jul 2022 5:29pm)

I never have cash but when I do, I tip. Why I usually use Deliveroo because you can tip using a card by donnygal (Tue 19th Jul 2022 8:13pm)

Not the ones he asked for a reference for but that was one of his points, landlords ask for rigorous checks and references from potential tenants but we’re not allowed to do the same. If it became more common, or something like OP is suggesting it may fix the issue of landlords not looking after their properties by donnygal (Wed 20th Jul 2022 5:53pm)

Best Chippy Hampden. The best fritters you’ll ever taste by donnygal (Sat 23rd Jul 2022 12:36am)

Surprisingly it doesn’t have it draught, only cans by donnygal (Sat 23rd Jul 2022 3:53pm)

I had the same issue with damp in a rented flat before and the landlord paid for the dehumidifier so might be worth asking if they’ll do that, you’re protecting their property at the end of the day by donnygal (Tue 26th Jul 2022 10:19am)

I wouldn’t go with Redpath Bruce, we’re currently arguing with them for charging each flat £40/month in the summer to cut the lawn by donnygal (Tue 26th Jul 2022 11:36pm)

Bins seem to be fine but bull uplift is a joke. I paid for a bulk uplift about six weeks ago and it still hasn’t been lifted and can’t get through any time I phone them by donnygal (Wed 3rd Aug 2022 2:13pm)

I saw that it can badly impact credit. Apparently the best thing to do is complain about the bill then they can’t send you to debt collectors until it’s resolved. Then bring the complaint to so called deadlock and bring to Ofgem. People are saying this is more effective than loads of people not paying. However, I do ask the question of, surely loads of people are just not going to pay anyway because they simply can’t afford it? by donnygal (Wed 3rd Aug 2022 2:45pm)

The point of this one video I saw was more that if you complain enough to Ofgem, something may get done. Plus the fact that the energy companies are charged £500 by Ofgem for each complaint brought against them. Only works if loads of people do it though which, much like lots of mass action ideas, most people don’t have the time or energy to do. by donnygal (Wed 3rd Aug 2022 8:57pm)

Can you explain? Genuinely asking, not being cheeky, I want to know the possible answer to this crisis. by donnygal (Thu 4th Aug 2022 12:59am)

Well I meant to complain to the ombudsman. Energy companies have to pay levies and case fees to the ombudsman each time a case is brought to them by a consumer. by donnygal (Thu 4th Aug 2022 11:50am)

I don’t know if I would say it’s less bad here, I think perhaps more subtle. One woman above posted about a man trying to strike up a conversation about her name in a Starbucks. Some people are saying “What’s wrong with that?” Women know when something isn’t right and when a man’s intention is sinister, we aren’t stupid. I’ve had a lot more situations like that then “classic” sexual harassment. Also have had quite a few instances of quite serious harassment such as a man jumping out of bushes at me in the pitch black, twice, one day after the other. Been followed after getting off the bus. Been groped. Catcalled. Also was raped a few years ago. So I think it’s maybe not AS bad in Glasgow as other places but still pretty bad. by donnygal (Wed 10th Aug 2022 11:49am)

I used to work with a JW and this is how they got her. She’d just started uni and was feeling a bit lost and then met the JWs and never looked back by donnygal (Wed 24th Aug 2022 4:32pm)

Short Long Black on Vicky Road does really good soft serve by donnygal (Mon 29th Aug 2022 12:51pm)

Served James McAvoy once when I was working in Waitrose, he was lovely and his wee boy was adorable. Also served Kevin Bridges in Waitrose and he was a rude cunt. Gail Porter frequented the same Waitrose but I never had a proper interaction with her, she seemed nice tho by donnygal (Sun 11th Sep 2022 8:50pm)

Nicole at Fergus Fit in EK. This is her instagram: https://instagram.com/nicfit_coaching?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= She’s a trained nurse and doesn’t do the meal plan type stuff by donnygal (Tue 20th Sep 2022 12:30pm)

Used to go to the Fifteen on Cathcart but they went a wee bit downhill. Now go to Tofu Oriental (it’s not just tofu, they sell meat too) and that’s really nice. Satay sauce and their black bean sauce are my faves by donnygal (Sat 24th Sep 2022 8:31pm)

13th Note is my favourite. Also recommend Red Onion, Bar Vini, Green Chilli and pretty much most of the Italian restaurants by donnygal (Wed 19th Oct 2022 10:41pm)

It doesn’t apply to Scotland, policing is devolved by donnygal (Fri 21st Oct 2022 2:46pm)

I’ve never even eaten there because the first (and last) time I tried, no one even came to take our order after sitting there for an hour. Went across the road to 13th Note insteas by donnygal (Thu 3rd Nov 2022 6:12pm)

I got a cold on Saturday and it keeps getting worse because we can’t afford to have the heating on for more than an hour a day. I literally cried last night because I couldn’t sleep because of how cold I was. It makes me so so so angry that this is happening by donnygal (Wed 14th Dec 2022 11:26pm)

Remember that post on this sub a few weeks ago about if Glasgow is racist? Yeah the comments on this post prove that it most definitely is by donnygal (Fri 16th Dec 2022 8:58pm)

Plz learn punctuation by donnygal (Tue 20th Dec 2022 2:25pm)

Have a look on the Glasgow Pet Services page on Facebook by donnygal (Wed 28th Dec 2022 6:55pm)

Students aren’t eligible for social housing unless they are disabled by donnygal (Sat 31st Dec 2022 12:13pm)

Oh I didn’t know that, the online advice is so confusing and I’ve been told multiple times that I’m not eligible as I’m a student. by donnygal (Sat 31st Dec 2022 1:59pm)

I’ve noticed this too, also sick of trying to get an Uber and seeing about three drivers just ignoring the request on the map by donnygal (Mon 2nd Jan 2023 10:51pm)

Clockwork in the Southside usually has one every Thursday but not sure if it’s on tonight, can check their Facebook by donnygal (Thu 5th Jan 2023 12:08pm)

Contact environmental health at the council by donnygal (Sun 8th Jan 2023 7:42pm)

I think there’s flats like this in Tradeston by donnygal (Sat 14th Jan 2023 6:29pm)

Seems to be happening already. The transphobes have arrived and they’re still equally as irritating by donnygal (Mon 16th Jan 2023 6:14pm)

Make sure you check the value on Discogs before you sell them to a record shop otherwise they will rip you off by donnygal (Sat 21st Jan 2023 3:10pm)

I’d recommend The Craft Pottery, you can paint your own pottery there and they also do pottery classes for groups. It’s BYOB and it’s so relaxing by donnygal (Mon 23rd Jan 2023 12:15am)

Weird question; do you have a slightly unusual name? Myself and my partner get called up ALL THE TIME and my partner has a theory that it’s because our names are unusual 😂 by donnygal (Thu 26th Jan 2023 6:56pm)

Interesting, maybe my partner’s theory isn’t as tin hat as I thought 😂 by donnygal (Thu 26th Jan 2023 7:30pm)

If I was that employee, I would’ve just left them there to burn by donnygal (Sat 28th Jan 2023 12:04pm)

Unfortunately they’re struggling even more since stopping doing the real ales. It’s my local and it’s usually dead unless there’s something on at Hampden. It doesn’t help that they charge extortionate prices for shite beer by donnygal (Sat 28th Jan 2023 5:37pm)

As a local to this area of Glasgow, I love overhearing people’s theories about those flats in pubs etc. 😂 But yeah as others have said, it’s just to try and make them look nicer by donnygal (Sat 4th Feb 2023 12:27pm)

It’s fully vegan now 😬 by donnygal (Tue 7th Feb 2023 5:44pm)

They also seem to require their staff to be patronising and useless in order to work there by donnygal (Wed 8th Feb 2023 6:56pm)

Doesn’t surprise me. The amount of times I see cars running red lights, speeding or, my biggest pet peeve, not indicating is a joke. Not indicating annoys me so much because they don’t do it and then turn a corner when I or other pedestrians are crossing because we think it’s safe and then the driver gets annoyed at pedestrians. I get that sometimes the bulb goes and you don’t know but I highly doubt that all of the drivers I see doing this have faulty lights. by donnygal (Thu 9th Feb 2023 4:25pm)

What about residential streets where there isn’t pedestrian crossings? by donnygal (Fri 10th Feb 2023 1:15am)

If I get to a crossing, say a crossroads and there’s a car coming towards me from the front not indicating and I wait and then they don’t turn and then there’s another car coming from the right again not indicating so I wait AND THEN there’s a car coming from behind me AGAIN not indicating, then I could be stood there for potentially almost 3 minutes, possibly more if more cars come. How is that reasonable when I am also trying to get to a destination just the same as car drivers? And that would all be because the cars did not indicate. If you don’t indicate that you’re turning down the street I’m trying to cross, I’m gonna cross it because you are not doing what you’re supposed to do according to the law and the highway code. And if a car then does turn without it’s indicators on, almost running me over, I’m then going to shout “BIG STICKS ON THE SIDE OF THE STEERING WHEEL, USE THEM.” by donnygal (Fri 10th Feb 2023 12:39pm)

This is one of the most comprehensive ways I’ve seen someone explain transport fees in Glasgow, fair play 🫡 by donnygal (Sat 18th Feb 2023 12:43am)

It really depends on the style you want it done in eg. traditional, realistic, neo-traditional, fine line etc. I’d look up tattoo styles and then look on Instagram for artists in Glasgow doing that style. Beware of an artist who does everything and anything with no particular style because in my experience, it’s never as good as someone who is specialised in a specific style. If you’re not sure, I’d try to find an artist you just like the work of and ask for a consultation with then. by donnygal (Tue 28th Feb 2023 8:52pm)

Apparently the BBC are still to announce ones in some cities in the U.K., I assume if there is one here, it’ll be in Glasgow Green by donnygal (Wed 12th Apr 2023 12:33pm)

I used to use the bus all the time pre-pandemic because it was the cheapest and easiest way to get to work. Now because I don’t travel to work, I use the train more because it’s cheaper and generally more reliable. (watch my train I’m about to get be delayed now cause I said that) by donnygal (Thu 13th Apr 2023 11:45am)

Honestly it’s luck of the draw at this stage. We bought a two bed tenement in 2021 in Battlefield and only went £5000 over home report, we were the first to look at the flat and first to offer and got it straight away. We did have a good few flats before then though where we offered more over home report and we were well below the other offers. I also have friends who have bought in the area who put in about 15-20 offers before finally being accepted and that was them putting every last penny in to it. You can get lucky like we did but even non-tenement properties in this area are going for a significant amount over home report. Idk where people get the money from tbh. by donnygal (Fri 5th May 2023 10:55am)

I agree. If you can afford it, it’s just a better way to experience student life here. I was only paying £350 per month when I lived in town tho so was much easier by donnygal (Fri 19th May 2023 2:26pm)

Only ever eaten Blue Lagoon pished but I don’t think I’d go in sober. My fave chippy is the aptly named, Best Chippy Hampden by donnygal (Wed 24th May 2023 4:41pm)

I don’t particularly like King Tuts because I can get a bit nervy in crowds and when it’s sold out, there isn’t really anywhere to go other than downstairs to the bar. You could arrive early and talk to the staff though and they may have suggestions. Also for future reference, O2 Academy staff are generally really good if you tell them you’re struggling in the crowd for whatever reason. by donnygal (Mon 5th Jun 2023 11:46am)

Sunshine No.1 in Mount Florida is all items made by Scottish artists, mainly glasgow. They do candles, skincare, art, pottery, etc. And the owner is lovely too! by donnygal (Mon 26th Jun 2023 11:19am)

Sarti do gluten free pizza and pasta. The food is extremely good there. by donnygal (Mon 26th Jun 2023 8:36pm)

Ireland is actually the “home of Samhain”, not Scotland… by donnygal (Tue 27th Jun 2023 7:43pm)

You’re welcome! by donnygal (Fri 30th Jun 2023 11:27pm)

The First Bus app shows the option to buy a yearly student ticket for £440. With that you just flash your student ID if asked but I never get asked for my ID by donnygal (Tue 11th Jul 2023 6:21pm)

I absolutely think this, so many dog owners in the Southside do not train their dogs properly and let them run ragged by donnygal (Fri 28th Jul 2023 10:45am)

It’s important to do your research no matter how small the tattoo is because if you go to the wrong person, it could still turn out shite. Plus different artists have different styles that you may like or dislike. by donnygal (Thu 3rd Aug 2023 10:18am)

When people talk too loudly and consistently during a gig, I ask them why they didn’t just go to the pub instead by donnygal (Wed 9th Aug 2023 8:56am)

Unfortunately they don’t cook the meat separate to the vegan options so not a great option if you care about that or have any allergies by donnygal (Tue 22nd Aug 2023 11:49am)

Sugo is overhyped. It’s just salty, bad pasta in a trendy setting. Much prefer somewhere like Sarti by donnygal (Thu 14th Sep 2023 6:40pm)

Don’t be so… salty by donnygal (Thu 14th Sep 2023 8:59pm)

This has been happening more frequently. I’m in 3rd year and up until the past couple of months, I had never been asked to show my ID. When I started uni, I would show it to them when I got on the bus and got a funny look from the driver so I stopped. Now it’s the opposite. It’s really not an issue tho, I just have it ready to show again now because it’s obvious they’ve been told to crack down on it 🤷🏻‍♀️ by donnygal (Thu 5th Oct 2023 2:16pm)

Sunshine No.1 in Mount Florida is a great shop that sells work by local artists and Scottish artists in general. The owner could definitely recommend other artists too if you didn’t find anything you like in there by donnygal (Sun 22nd Oct 2023 8:34pm)

The Spark are really good, their pricing is dependent on your income and can be free if required by donnygal (Wed 15th Nov 2023 10:23pm)

I can’t see people’s email addresses, it’s so that if I want to contact for more info, I do it through Google but I can’t see details. You don’t have to fill it in if you don’t want to. by donnygal (Tue 21st Nov 2023 2:42pm)

little_sheba_ttt on Insta who I believe works at Black Abbey does some proper American trad stuff. Duncan Sweeney is also great! Tbh, they’re the only two I can think of as most other people are neo-trad by donnygal (Sun 3rd Dec 2023 3:52pm)
