Fudge Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I'm probably going out to watch the Scotland game tomorrow night with a few mates. They all live in the leafy West End though and rarely go to watch football in the pub (my football watching is limited to the city centre). So can you, the P&B masses, recommend a decent pub near the Byers Road area that will be showing the football? Cheapish pints and a clientele with as few hipsters as possible preferred. The Rock on Hyndland Road. It's a 5 minute walk (max) from Byres Road. Even when your Tennents and the like are absolutely stowed out, the Rock is alway much quieter. They have a big screen and the drink is reasonably priced. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raidernation Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 (edited) Sitting in the back sleeping wouldn't. If you're the only person in the car you're done! You're still clearly "in charge of a vehicle whilst intoxicated" so tough shit you alkie-drink-driver-scum Edited October 11, 2012 by Raidernation 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're still clearly "in charge of a vehicle whilst intoxicated" so tough shit you alkie-drink-driver-scum Just you stick to giving previously unheard of quality advice on not opening suspicious looking links on suspicious looking emails. If it wasn't for you I fear my bank account would be empty and my PC riddled with trojan viruses. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooper's on Great Western Road. The Rock on Hyndland Road. It's a 5 minute walk (max) from Byres Road. Even when your Tennents and the like are absolutely stowed out, the Rock is alway much quieter. They have a big screen and the drink is reasonably priced. Of the 2 suggested, I'd go with Coopers. More TV's than The Rock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 There are no pubs on Byers Road or any of the surrounding streets. I know, it's a real problem TBH. Cooper's on Great Western Road. The Rock on Hyndland Road. It's a 5 minute walk (max) from Byres Road. Even when your Tennents and the like are absolutely stowed out, the Rock is alway much quieter.

Thanks for the suggestions! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H Wragg Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 The Aragon on Byres Road is also not bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightswoodBear Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 The Aragon on Byres Road is also not bad. Also this. Loads of TV's for such a wee boozer, but it does get ridiculously cramped inside. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee Man Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Is it possible to post pics directly from your iPhone on here? I don't think so if you are using the mobile version. Maybe if you opened up the desktop version you could. If you find out, let me know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

11thHour Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Can I make a smoothie/blended drink using just frozen fruit and orange juice? Or does the fruit need to be defrosted? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 (edited) £150 for a skip for 2 weeks, is that a good price or not? its the size of one you would normally get on a building site. I never knew Dundee was so desperate these days. £150 would surely get a short-term rent of a bedroom in a half-decent flatshare surely?

Sweet Pete Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 £150 for a skip for 2 weeks, is that a good price or not? its the size of one you would normally get on a building site. Cracking price, comparable to what I pay for skips for a week (dependant upon size, obviously). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweet Pete Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Aye was from a company outside dundee called PYOT, Do you normally pay on the day you get the skips? This is what they want to happen I've got different contacts for different uses, one is credit terms and one is payment upon completion, but it's not unusual to pay on delivery. Just ensure they won't try and charge you again when they come back to uplift and make sure you ring them at the end of the hire period to off-hire the skip and avoid extra charges. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't need to defrost it, no. Once it's been blended you'll just end up with a chilled drink. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
