pandarilla Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I've already acknowledged this in a previous post, however I've also put my reasons as to why I prefer avoiding here for main holidays, so it's not as if I've just indiscriminately "slagged off the country". Still, there's no right or wrong and everyone is entitled to their opinion.Aye but the opinion "why would anyone stay here for a holiday" is a shite one, that deserves to be valued out.That more recent post is much more reasonable, and i fully agree. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandarilla Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Whether you agree with someone’s opinion or not, they are entitled to it. It could be a crock of shit opinion but if it’s theirs then so be it. And we're all entitled to comment on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even using this thread as an example, folk need things spelled out or they'll ask about every single little bit of minutiae and see them all as 'loopholes' that only can be exploited, but should be exploited. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hausa is a Afroasiatic language spoken by the Hausa people, the largest ethnic group in Sub-Saharan Africa, mainly within the territories of Southern Niger and Northern Nigeria. Historically, it has also developed into a lingua franca across much of Western Africa for purposes of trade. 1 hour ago, Granny Danger said: It would be difficult for you to post a picture where you are older than you are noo.

Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Don’t know about the hotels you are mentioning, but everything else there is a 30 year old + stereotype. There are tons of places serving great food with great service. But because we’re brought up on these stereotypes, we believe them. I’ve got a house in Brodick, and there are 4 or 5 really good food options in the village with locally sourced produce, and not all are overly expensive. None have a “don’t serve food between 2 and 4 mentality” Thats fine, youre experiences have been different to mine. Ive been in several such hotels, i’ve even named a couple particularly shite ones. I’ve definitely encountered terrible service and restaurants that serve frozen shite, in particular in places like Fort William, Oban etc. I can’t afford 2/3 weeks stay in the likes of Dunblane Hydro, Gleneagles or the Old Course hotel, but I can stay for 2/3 in a 4/4star hotel elsewhere a shit load cheaper. We’ve got a great natural product but the delivery is crap and prices most locals out. It’s different strokes for different folks you like Arran and I like going abroad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they can spell out how their 'stay local' advice squares with their rebuke of scenes like those at Portobello beach this week, when hordes of city dwellers had the temerity to flock to their local amenities all at the same time. Either the government hasn't worked out that their intuitive advice on the surface would have entirely the opposite effect than it wants in practice or they're more interested in staying in the good books of the curtain-twitching NIMBY population of rural Scotland.

Paco Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Journalists just falling over themselves to defend Cummings with their ‘sources’, who definitely aren’t Dominic Cummings. Nosiree. If there’s any consistency he simply must resign and I don’t think anyone can believe the PM didn’t know what his chief adviser was doing. It should be a huge scandal but they’ll release some super duper promise tomorrow and the aforementioned journalists will change the narrative. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Cummings won’t resign, Johnson won’t sack him, Tory voters won’t bother. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Every journo that isn't Tim Shipman or Tim Montie will have to screw the head and lay off Cummings if they want any scoops from within the Tory party for the foreseeable future. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 They are showing themselves up for the c***s that they are, basically. From Cummings to the Scottish CMO (whose name escapes me) to the one who delivered "essential supplies and prescriptions" to his parents to Neil Kinnock's son to Ferguson(?) (you know who I mean) to Prince Charles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
