Time to see if the old fishing rod is still out in the garage and also hope against hope that there's still Brown Trout in the burn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God works in mysterious ways. Oh all right then, circumstances often change in ways no-one could have forseen. Get your hands dirty and put your backs into it, you brexit thickos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedgecutter Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 19 minutes ago, Todd_is_God said: I didn't realise until yesterday that prelim results were no longer used in the event the final exam couldn't be sat? Why do they still do them then?! FWIW, my brother once asked me what the point of going back to school was after he had sat his final prelim. He genuinely thought that they were the proper exams and that 'prelim' was just another name for Standard Grades. My mum also once asked me "do you not have prelims around about now?", to which my (honest) answer was "we've already had them". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 (edited) Bishopbriggs Retail Park was very close to normal today. Nike store shut, as all Nike stores are. Normal service in Tim Hortons, I enjoyed a normal lunch experience, unlike my battle with Dobbies to do me a roll on link sausage earlier this week! Costa serving takeway only. Iceland normal, M&S normal, aside from the now usual scenario involving mince, pasta, and bog roll. No panic, just normal shoppers doing normal shopping. Only fly in today’s ointment was an absolute cnut of a twenty-something lassie in her cunty Vauxhall Corsa, flying at 100mph the wrong way up one of the car park spur roads. One-way arrows clearly painted, came straight towards me through the no entry signs at her end of the spur, brakes slammed on, as she flies into a parking space with her window wound down, and utterly shite dance music blaring out of the open window. Fcuking boot. I had a word. Enough said. Let’s now get on with the more important things. Edited March 19, 2020 by pozbaird 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see what this daytime TV I keep hearing of is all about. Equity release, travel insurance for pre-existing conditions and surprisingly affordable funeral plans. Listen to Radio 4 instead (except for the astonishingly ubiquitous The Archers). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 3 minutes ago, Snafu said: I heard and read various accounts of restrictions to buy only two or three items of the one product at supermarkets and small store not working, some people are still doing what they want. Stores having 30 minute queues and not enough staff to police the restrictions at the tills, staff being intimidated by customers etc. That's the problem with these stories. I have no doubt that these things are happening occasionally, but each time I've been to the shops in the last week (three in total I think) it has been absolutely fine and there has been loads of stuff in stock. It only seems to be very specific things that are out of stock. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
