Story about a new school being built 1000 places short on the BBC website.  How the hell do you actually mess up that much, the school capacity is 500 and there are 1500 kids of school age in teh area.  What a massive cock up -https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-65894201

Also, the new build development in the story was built on the site of a former munitions factory.  Will angry parents dig up a few mortar bombs from their gardens and march on the council headquarters?

 

This is the very least that they deserve for choosing to live in fucking Bishopton.

Close the train station to make a 100mph service through the rancid township while we're at it.

Seriously? 😂

I’ve not found anything online to verify this. 
 

If you're that interested you can pay (about a fiver i think) to look at the deeds on the land registry. They'll show any restrictive covenants. 

I heard similar about a development on the old nuclear bomb factory by my old work but always suspected it was a myth. 

Maybe developers do put these things in to prevent a law suit.

I have to get my PSA level checked every 3 months to keep an eye on my prostate cancer. I was a bit late getting it done and got 2 reminder phone calls from the Cancer Centre*. Got my blood taken about 2 weeks ago, and phoned up to get the results. The receptionist went over a pile of things I didn't even know were getting checked but no PSA result. "Oh, we don't get that, you have to phone the hospital." Ballix (I didn't actually say that), I've never had to phone the hospital before.

However, the GP definitely didn't have them so phoned the hospital. ""Oh, no, nothing to do with us, if your GP surgery took the tests, they would get the results."

Back to the GP surgery, got the same lassie as I had spoken to earlier, I didn't recognise her voice, but fortunately I didn't criticise her (something along the lines of "silly woman didn't know what she was doing" was running through my head), and they definitely didn't have them so we decided the best course of action was to get another test done, last week.

Phoned yesterday to get the result and was told it had got lost in the system. 

Got an appointment slipped in at 14.10 yesterday afternoon, so third time lucky. 

*However, no more calls from the Cancer Centre, and I'm wondering whether they got the result of the first test, but leaving everyone else in the dark

0.03, pleased with that.

Almost 3 hours of trooping the colour on the national broadcaster today. I know I can and will watch something  else but what an absolute lot of pish, the type of nonsense you'd be laughing at North Korea for.

Can't help wondering what they would have done if Charles had woken up and said, "To hell with it, I can't be arsed going out. Think I'll just have a duvet day."

At Tesco earlier and the woman at the next checkout had her trolley loaded with Mr Kipling cakes. 

"They're for my husband. He's terrible" 

Shop Assistant "Are they not full of sugar. You need to be careful for diabetes" 

Woman "He's got diabetes" 

😳😳😳

I was in a check out queue at Lidls recently when the woman in front of me's phone rang.

She answered it, and in a snooty accent told the caller that she was in a queue at Sainsburys and would call back shortly.

The elderly/ retired should be banned from entering town centres at the weekend.  Maybe like one of those city centre Low Emission Zone type of situations.

They have all the time in the world yet venture out when it's most inconvenient, I reckon they're all in on it together just laughing at us.
