capybara Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I'm honestly amazed the courier services can operate in Edinburgh. Dreadful roads, particuarly bad given it's Scotland's capital city.I'm pretty sure I'll be needing part of my exhaust replaced after going straight through a pothole. Seems to be rattling a bit, although nothing major. It'll get progressively worse, though. It really is terrible,i have a car with low profile tyres,some streets are no go area,s for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capybara Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Roadworks that make the road worse. What is the fuckin' point? Edinburgh city council hates drivers,regardless of what party is in power.The officials have never forgiven the citizens for voting down their beloved congestion charge. But they carried on with closing of rat runs,installing speed ramps that would give a tiger tank a run for it money,instigating one way systems etc etc.Oh and some of the highest parking fees known to man ,and traffic enforcers that were trained by the Third Reich. Apart from that it is fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bibby Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Oh and some of the highest parking fees known to man Seen a wee VW near the meadows this morning with three parking tickets strapped to the windshield Got done myself a few months back. £30 for parking half a dozen feet from where I shoulda been. Roadworks aren't that bad whenever I drive between Fife and Edinburgh. Lothian Road's the busiest road I touch and it's pretty fine. FFS Cowdenbeath is where the roadworks cut me up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pencils Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 (edited) We had a tannoy today at the end of school to say that their had been a serious incedant, and the school would be used as an evacuation point. I was a wee bit worried, and just wanted to get home to see what happened. I then got home and asked my Dad what happened. It turns out his work was on fire Its almost certain he's out a job now! Fucking gutted. Edited November 10, 2009 by pencils 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Aye, this CoD obsession is tragic. I've actually got off lightly. Given that i've got uni work to get on with, I've not seen any of my non-uni mates. Accordingly, i don't have to suffer their pish about how good CoD is. Fucking geeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
