It is signposted in Perth, Glasgow and Stirling as some kind of small town, important and with potential. Now granted it's beautiful there with Ben More looming close at hand. However it has one shop and barely any houses. A complete piss take. False advertising and signage of somewhere of importance. The singular shop sells lasagne pies too which gives you delayed runs. The next village along had much more to do, including several cafes and somewhere to fill the car back up. Wherever it is, it deserves more recognition than Crainlies. Which has a train station.... Why? Nobody bloody lives there. f**k off Crainlarich. Coming out of Stirling from Tesco heading to the Kelpies, there was signage for Perth, yep OK. The M9, yep OK that's where we were going, although no mention of Edinburgh or Glasgow directions. Also Crainlarich. f**k off. Cuntlies it should be renamed. 10 minutes ago, throbber said: There's a toilet at Crianlarich that is a good stop off point for motorists. It's also home to a junction that goes to Stirling/East of Scotland if you go straight ahead or it takes you to Glasgow if you go right. I have some very fond memories of the toilets and the junction there. Yup, the junction and public toilets are the most important things about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 It should also be spelt correctly instead of Crianlarich. Stupid stupid stupid 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Reminding us all that they're not just doing it to help the world, but also for a good bit of self-interest. Unlike "Medecins San Frontieres with all their fornicators and sinners" as a Christian friend of mine said last time we met. She's currently spreading the word of God out in the arse end of Chad where she wouldn't be otherwise (helping as a doctor to keep them away from the witch-doctor... which many still prefer seeing as her praying as a last line of hope doesn't seem to be helping very much). She's turning into more of a hardcore nut-job by the visit to the point I think she's only interested in trying to convert me and I can't be arsed after previously getting on well for 15+ years since meeting through the uni's Ultimate Frisbee Christian's Frisbee Club. An unfortunate dilemma. We'll ignore the OFTW frisbeeing as you know how to kick and what sort of pie needs the kicking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We talked about this and your inability to understand scale. Also you were warned about that pie. I'm beginning to think as well that you didn't actually meet the major after all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Kincardine Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 9 hours ago, MEADOWXI said: Give it 6 month and some hipster twat will have opened a shop selling 'de-constructed sandwiches'; Bag with two slices of bread, a wee pack of butter and a wee bag of grated cheese and a plastic knife for the butter. Sell it for probably twice the price of a sandwich next door in the supermarket - and trendy oxygen-thief cockwombles like her will buy them This could well be a business idea...as long as the bread was described as 'artisenal or 'rustic'. There's a local(ish) brewery opened what they call a 'bottle shop and tap' in the town and, tbf, their stuff is excellent. How they brand it gets on my tits, though. From their website: " High Wycombe was also the first outlet to have a small batch, hand roasted coffee offering and an artisan pizza kitchen, for when you get the beer munchies." Tossers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Dalwhinnie does have a distillery. I once got a free drink for knowing that Dalehinnie is the highest distillery in Scotland.

1320Lichtie Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 There's a sign for Perth in Elgin.Fucking Perth. In fucking Elgin. To be fair kind of understandable as obviously the way to the A9/central belt. Considering Elgin is the only real bit of civilisation between Inverness and Aberdeen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's worse when they unload then reload a shopping trolley at the checkout with one hand when all they had to fucking do was put the bag down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
