Lambie's Pigeon Feed Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I've not been out on a Monday for years since my student days, is anywhere in Glasgow open and busy? Going to a gig and have the Tuesday off work so likely to want to keep going afterwards. I know it used to be 'staff night; in Viper on a Monday, is that the case? Any other recommendations? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wanting before or after? Driftwood is a bar, no idea where right enough, but they're drinks are from 89p, cheap ones but still. Garage do a more rock night on a Monday, 1030 onwards so it'd be for after yer gig. Depends what you're into, I guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends what you're into, I guess. driftwood is at the end of sauchiehall street (well at least the main pub/ clubby bit) near charing cross and next to a subway.

stimpy Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I'm going to Turkey on my jollies and have been told that I can take lira or GBP but there any point in taking anything other than the local currency? Do you get more bang for your buck with the pound? We're going all inclusive so it would just be for gift shopping. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 I used Lira in Istanbul - it made it easier to haggle as the locals can't try and confuse you with currency conversion talk as they barter with you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa Cuddy Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Good man. I shall have a look tomorrow for when I attempt to cook meatloaf. What a disaster it will be. On the top floor, there's also a kitchen shop, I forget what it's called, but it's near the food hall end. It has all sorts of baking trays and tins in various sizes and made from different materials. It's something like Lakeside or Lakesomethingorother, I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qpsnapper Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 (edited) Is the rate of National Insurance still 11%? I have to work out wage costs for my work and have been told to calculate it at 12%... From : http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/MoneyTaxAndBenefits/Taxes/BeginnersGuideToTax/NationalInsurance/IntroductiontoNationalInsurance/DG_190048 "If you're employed you pay Class 1 National Insurance contributions. The rates are: if you earn more than £110 a week and up to £844 a week, you pay 11 per cent of the amount you earn between £110 and £844 if you earn more than £844 a week, you also pay an extra 1 per cent of all your earnings over £844". I think Labour were going to increase the lower rate to 12% this April but that was reversed by the coalition after they won the election?

Basically I'm right and the HR woman is a tit. On another note, anyone care to venture a guess why I am taxed on my earnings from my 2nd job but not charged NI? Not that I'm complaining mind 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayrgirl Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 On another note, anyone care to venture a guess why I am taxed on my earnings from my 2nd job but not charged NI? Not that I'm complaining mind Probably because you are not earning over the threshold for NI payments. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unleash The Nade Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I think it's called Lakeland Limited. My mum's favourite shop in Glasgow I shall also have a look there. Lakeland in Buchanan Galleries is bset option, but you'll also get them in John Lewis,House Of Fraser,debenhams,as all have cookshop sections. Crocket the Ironmonger on West Nile Street also has some,as do Watt Brothers. If I had any spare samples,you could have had them for nowt! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
