shine a laser pen in his eyes when he’s at his window? by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 30th Jun 2021 6:21pm)

i second this, taken my car there the past few years and would recommend by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 7th Jan 2022 1:25am)

not enough litter by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 18th Mar 2022 9:20pm)

redmonds on duke street, but it’s more of a bar than restaurant (food is ace though) by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 17th Apr 2022 6:01am)

good for you, but they’re replying to your reddit comment, not emailing you by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 14th May 2022 4:12pm)

the litter by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 29th May 2022 7:17am)

i don’t know, i’ve not met them all yet by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 23rd Jun 2022 12:45am)

don’t bother with elias, genuinely one of the worst places i’ve eaten, it’s just a tourist trap for people visiting george square by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 29th Jun 2022 2:46am)

another reason why i begrudgingly prefer just going to a spoons, background music is nice, but too many pubs (and restaurants) play it so loud it defeats the purpose of even being there by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 3rd Jul 2022 8:40pm)

dumb question from a relative noob to glasgow, but do you take the home report value as the “asking price”? by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 6th Jul 2022 8:19pm)

i would be interested in forming one if you can’t find a team to join by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 6th Jul 2022 8:20pm)

ahh okay thanks, was considering getting rid of the motor anyway, so might not need to worry about that…thanks for the advice by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 8th Jul 2022 3:23pm)

awww i think this is in aberfoyle street lol by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 8th Jul 2022 3:22pm)

yeah i’ve been told that before, but don’t have facebook unfortunately by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 8th Jul 2022 3:21pm)

i’m not sure of the number, as i’ve just seen an ad online, but ty and i’ll let you know if it’s 7 by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 9th Jul 2022 4:54am)

thanks, a picture says 1000 words i guess by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 9th Jul 2022 4:55am)

yeah i was considering riddrie and viewed a flat there before, but there is nothing there atm by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 9th Jul 2022 11:26am)

now i’m curious to know if this is a wind up or not by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 15th Jul 2022 12:57pm)

nahh, never have done and have no intention of helping to finance their nonce ring by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 16th Jul 2022 2:00pm)

not really, i’ve lived in a few places around the uk, both rich and poverty stricken, glasgow has the most litter by far by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 17th Jul 2022 6:19pm)

it might be, i honestly have no idea, but there does seem like glasgow has a particular mindset/attitude where cunts don’t care about their city, same with the manky bastards that spit everywhere, not a common occurrence in other places by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 17th Jul 2022 10:59pm)

dalmarnok mot centre by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 22nd Jul 2022 11:04pm)

i had a deliveroo cyclist get mad at me “because i got in his way”…while he was mounting the pavement on his bike, honestly one of the hidden advantages of stopping eating takeaways is i’m no longer helping cunts like that by felt_like_signing_up (Tue 2nd Aug 2022 8:13pm)

i second this, pretty good value for money and plenty of options if you feel like something different by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 3rd Aug 2022 2:40pm)

any chance you could play despacito on a violin? love that song by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 10th Aug 2022 7:23am)

sorry for the joke reply btw, didn’t see that you were 14. imo you should at least give it a go. buchanan street looks fairy busy/popular for buskers, but be prepared to move if asked. i think a phone on your lap would be okay as i’ve seen many other buskers livestream on tiktok etc, but personally i would avoid it if you can by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 10th Aug 2022 8:26am)

dalmarnok mot centre in dennistoun by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 10th Aug 2022 12:43pm)

yeah exactly, it only takes two seconds of a lapse in concentration for someone to grab your phone and disappear before you can react best of luck and as others have said, use the time to hone your craft and enjoy it by felt_like_signing_up (Tue 16th Aug 2022 12:35am)

dumb question, but do we have to bring our own chess boards etc? by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 19th Aug 2022 10:15am)

get the train, it’s one of the most scenic train routes in the whole world by felt_like_signing_up (Tue 23rd Aug 2022 9:05pm)

that’s good to know. thanks for your help and i should see you tuesday by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 27th Aug 2022 8:01am)

tinderbox is shite, staff cut about with faces like a slapped arse and seem to be be offended if you dare ask them for a coffee edit: spelling by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 23rd Sep 2022 5:04am)

they can copy/paste from reddit, but that’s about it by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 5th Oct 2022 2:05pm)

gone downhill recently imo by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 26th Oct 2022 9:21am)

maybe it’s just me, but it just tastes of a cheap overly greasy chippy last couple of times i’ve been in, idk if they’re using cheaper ingredients because of costs etc, but i honestly doubt i would be able to tell the difference between them and blue lagoon in a blind taste test, and i say this as a (former) fan of theirs, honestly gutted about it lol by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 26th Oct 2022 12:27pm)

yeah noticed that myself coias is about £15 for a fish supper that’s still pretty good, but heartbreaking to have to pay for lol by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 26th Oct 2022 2:48pm)

if you aren’t registered with a dentist call the dental hospital for an emergency appointment. i got seen within 2 hrs and only paid £14 for a root canal. happy days. by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 30th Oct 2022 12:18pm)

yeah gave it a go (no pun intended) twice and it’s not in the same league as the og. by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 17th Nov 2022 9:31pm)

yeah you’re right. might wait until next year to give sloans a go by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 4th Dec 2022 5:54pm)

try booking Sam at twenty (just of george square) does a fantastic job with my medium/long hair edit: beard trim too by felt_like_signing_up (Mon 19th Dec 2022 8:57pm)

last time i ordered the fries were so overcooked they were inedible, definitely gone downhill imo by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 18th Jan 2023 2:59am)

thats exactly how i would describe they tasted haha. i do remember being alright in the past, but not risking having to throw half my dinner away again, especially for that nut job. by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 18th Jan 2023 11:56am)

had a family member “work” for them, 100% an mlm but tbf they were the cheapest for gas/electric for many of my family members (and still are) but i would avoid working for them if you can by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 29th Jan 2023 5:00pm)

ottoman coffeehouse if it’s a coffee date, can get busy on weekends though by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 9th Feb 2023 9:50am)

there’s an amazing place called the search bar, you should definitely try it by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 9th Feb 2023 7:19pm)

calling everyone else a xenophobic cunt whilst blaming foreigners for the housing crisis lol twat by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 22nd Feb 2023 5:28am)

thanks so much for the advice, and yeah i’m feeling like i’m getting old before my time too lol but the allure of seafront living seems a lot better than the convenience any city has the hour long commute probably isn’t as bad as i’m thinking it will be and i suppose it gives me time to read etc and the last train is late enough that i can do stuff in glasgow after work as well. by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 23rd Feb 2023 6:09am)

thank you so much for this advice. i think i could fairly easily change my shift to 10:00>18:00 if i ask nicely enough and would never have known about this without you reply by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 23rd Feb 2023 4:07pm)

yup, was on the same train and the whole thing was pretty surreal. fair play to the conductor though, couldn’t have been more professional considering the circumstances. i just hope the driver is doing alright by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 8th Mar 2023 6:25am)

that’s at least somewhat reassuring tbh, i couldn’t even begin to imagine what it must feel like though by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 8th Mar 2023 6:12pm)

why does every american feel the need to tell everyone they’re american online by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 10th Mar 2023 9:36am)

what language do you speak? maybe someone here can help or at least point you in the right direction to get the help you need by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 15th Mar 2023 10:35pm)

obligatory i don’t like them either but brewdog used to do wings wednesdays too, not sure about nowadays by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 14th Apr 2023 1:18am)

brilliant ty by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 20th Apr 2023 6:41am)

unfortunately not i’m afraid by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 20th Apr 2023 11:20am)

fair play that did give me a laugh by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 20th Apr 2023 1:02pm)

that’s handy to know ty by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 21st Apr 2023 1:33am)

£42 but that also includes a beard trim. i know it’s not the cheapest place to go, but i’ve had too many bad haircuts when focusing on the cheapest place to go by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 22nd Apr 2023 9:59am)

firstly i hope you’re doing okay, or your situation does improve with time. but to answer your question you can head to one of the islands (arran, cumbrae, bute) i know you said you drive but it might be easier getting the train (can buy a ticket for both train and ferry from central station) as i’m no sure about getting your motor over without pre booking, plus you can have a cheeky pint or joint if either of those are your thing. failing that a walk around loch lomond or edinburgh works for me too when i need a day to myself. best of luck by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 23rd Apr 2023 3:06am)

out of the ones i’ve tried so far, i would say akbars by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 5th May 2023 2:01pm)

because it’s a massive problem in this city by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 5th May 2023 4:48pm)

rightly so. i’m sick to death with the amount of manky cunts in this city. no where else i’ve lived is this bad. by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 27th May 2023 7:24pm)

i honestly don’t think they think or care about others for a second, same energy as those cunts that play their shit music in nature on a £5 ali express bluetooth speaker by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 27th May 2023 7:37pm)

couldn’t have described it better myself lmao. “wealth is a mindset” bollocks by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 27th May 2023 8:21pm)

that falafel place just of sauchihall street by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 2nd Jun 2023 10:43pm)

yeah the pre marinated chicken from the halal butcher is a lifesaver to have in the fridge when you cba, but don’t want to spend money on a takeaway. just heat up some rice or naan and dinner is sorted. by felt_like_signing_up (Tue 6th Jun 2023 8:43pm)

thanks for the heads up, will give them a go by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 7th Jun 2023 4:55am)

just to piggyback of this post, does anyone know what the gym is like there? by felt_like_signing_up (Tue 13th Jun 2023 9:51pm)

let us know where you live and we’ll pan her windows in by felt_like_signing_up (Tue 13th Jun 2023 9:50pm)

exactly, these long evenings in the sun are a godsend after the miserable winters we have here by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 14th Jun 2023 1:14pm)

ty :) by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 14th Jun 2023 9:06pm)

stop being a drama queen and enjoy the weather while it’s here by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 15th Jun 2023 7:20am)

best advice i can give are those ads that don’t actually give a clear job description, just a load of buzzwords and looking for “highly motivated self-starters” etc 🚩 by felt_like_signing_up (Mon 19th Jun 2023 6:51am)

as someone who’s in the market to buy, places are still going offers over as far as i know, especially near the city centre etc, but that’s just my anecdotal observation you can check estimated prices on the zoopla app if you search your address on the prices tab, not 100% scientific but as good as an opinion that you’ll get tbh by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 22nd Jun 2023 1:47pm)

as someone who has spent a fair share of their younger life working those shitty kitchen jobs this is so heartening to hear. more power to them by felt_like_signing_up (Tue 27th Jun 2023 10:54pm)

first wash they’ve had all year by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 1st Jul 2023 2:58pm)

check my post history where i’ve asked this before on the main sub i live around the corner in dennistoun and honestly it’s not the best place, but is slowly being gentrified as dennistoun becomes more expensive by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 5th Jul 2023 11:16pm)

yeah i’ve considered moving to a commuter town myself, but i know ill just become more of a hermit than i already am, so gonna continue looking close to the city centre and 🤞🏽something does come up haghill is shit, but isn’t as bad as some people say, providing you’re not moving too far into the area, i think by/near the main roads are fine for the most part imo. places are still going over hr value too, so it’s not all junkies moving in the area and i think it has got better over the last 5 years by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 6th Jul 2023 8:38am)

i second akbars, closest thing i’ve had to a proper home cooked curry in glasgow so far by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 7th Jul 2023 11:25pm)

their cafe is good tbf, shame it’s not open later on weekdays by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 1:24am)

aye worth it when the weather is good and i’m craving their chippy by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 1:24am)

that’s good to know. yeah i normally let myself out when i notice it starting to fill up and try to buy something at least every hour, but with the cost of living rising i can’t do it too often lol by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 1:22am)

ottoman is my fave coffee shop in the city hands down! i’m in the east end, but will check your other recommendations when i’m in the south. by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 1:29am)

i’m double barred unfortunately. probably for the best because the owner shagged my maw anaw by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 1:27am)

ohh never heard of it. will give it a go when the weather is nice by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 1:26am)

yeah the counting house is a good shout by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 1:25am)

my fave coffee shop in glasgow lol. yeah i think i just need to avoid the peak times because it’s been super busy the few times i’ve gone on weekends by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 1:32am)

ohh didn’t know that, might be a game changer if i wanna read in the evenings by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 1:31am)

never heard of it, but will definitely check it out, ty. by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 1:30am)

aye i like that on occasion tbf by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 1:35am)

thanks for the heads up. i had no idea the cineworld discount included the bar as well, so that’s something new (black card gang) by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 2:36am)

haha fair enough. that’s good to know though by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 4:25am)

i hope you enjoy it here. download the find a player app and it should give you teams looking for a spare player. idk how well it works for volleyball and badminton, but worth a try. also the meetup app might be useful too by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 9th Jul 2023 11:02am)

it’s full of hard men apparently by felt_like_signing_up (Mon 10th Jul 2023 8:56am)

best kebab by felt_like_signing_up (Mon 10th Jul 2023 8:17pm)

great idea and something i do too, but is very weather dependent and we’re not having much luck with that atm by felt_like_signing_up (Mon 10th Jul 2023 8:15pm)

ottoman coffeehouse by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 23rd Jul 2023 12:33pm)

who hurt you? lol by felt_like_signing_up (Mon 24th Jul 2023 1:08pm)

can i have a sip of your coke? by felt_like_signing_up (Fri 25th Aug 2023 10:09pm)

eating at best kebab will cost you 20hp and automatically start the side quest “find the nearest toilet” until fully healed by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 9th Sep 2023 7:43am)

claiming you’re a partick thistle fan will grant you neutrality among the cities two main rival gangs by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 9th Sep 2023 8:04am)

it may cost you 1 credit to get them to leave you alone, or your life if you engage in combat by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 9th Sep 2023 9:45am)

if you are looking to enamour yourself with the locals, hating the english will help by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 9th Sep 2023 9:50am)

you need at least level 3 charisma to not fall for the sob story by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 10th Sep 2023 7:43pm)

ikr, they must make their living of unsuspecting tourists and students. i remember when i first moved here i thought i’d go in one evening…im so glad i didn’t 😂 by felt_like_signing_up (Sun 10th Sep 2023 7:40pm)

grab yourself a chocolate brownie while you’re there too by felt_like_signing_up (Wed 13th Sep 2023 9:40pm)

fuck it, just buy one of everything by felt_like_signing_up (Thu 14th Sep 2023 10:24am)

tinderbox by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 16th Sep 2023 7:11am)

plus you get better coffee in mcdonalds by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 16th Sep 2023 10:55am)

i won’t go because the staff act like you personally fucked up their day by having the audacity to order a coffee by felt_like_signing_up (Sat 16th Sep 2023 10:54am)
