There are obviously some proud Fifers who understand that you can't have it all: you can either be in civilisation, or you can have your own unique savoury pastries. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torpar Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 So having steak bridies means you are not part of civilisation but being from a place were they think it's perfectly acceptable to use the term black b*****ds is part of civilisation because you can catch a bus to Glasgow in 45 minutes, got it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think dualled A roads are arterial routes, then you’re outwith. And a bumpkin. Note also that this’ll mean most of eastern Edinburgh and anything beyond Langbank are outwith the Central Belt. Case closed. This would mean Scone is in the Central Belt, but not Craigmillar. Not for me, Clive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 This would require Glasgow to adopt salt and sauce first, which is roughly as likely as Glasgow abandoning vigorous discussion of the organisation of the Christian religion.Or using soap. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised how far east they went in Fife but haven't looked into the data in any detail- there's probably surface outcrops that were mined way back that might be included. Also some of the ones around the edges are really short lived- maybe just prospecting? https://www.nmrs.org.uk/mines-map/coal-mining-in-the-british-isles/collieries-of-the-british-isles/coal-mines-scotland/ Showed this to my dad (he's like, old). The one in Aberhill near Bayview Park, between Aberhill Primary and the Bus Depot was used by the War Office to dump ammunition in after WWII.

Glasburgh already exists. The Airdrie to Bathgate was the missing link. I'm campaigning to get east Airdrie an EH post code before I sell the house.

ICTChris Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Is it only Scotland where we have intense debates on amorphous regional boundaries?

America a bit, Appalachian/MidWest both pretty contested designations. When I was in Colombia there was a campaign to get a new region, Orinoquia, recognised. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
