  1. Very good too. Me- Urr Rod Hull? Is Fred in Hull? No, urr is it an in joke I’m not familiar with? Umm… hang on whats that?… hahahaaa
  2. Mind you that is in Scotstoun so prolly lower pay.
  3. Me neither. Not sure if they’re became miserable cos of the bus driving or are attracted to the job cos they’re already miserable Had a look, this is what it says on the first bus website, £13 starting regardless of experience. Not a lot when you consider how much everything cost now.
  4. Spect he’s paid for a managerial role and they don’t drop his £ per hour when he drives a bus. Bet the other poor sods make bugger all.
  5. I never said I got the crushing head pains in the Pyrenees. It was over 5000 metres elsewhere, 5150 metres to be precise.
  6. My mistake it was over 5000 meters
  7. All pics should be approved by a specially selected panel before they’re able to be submitted along with a completed application form stating all the necessaries, legitimacy of claim to own the bike, proof of date photo taken, correct dimensions, no alterations or enhancement, it must be outside and they can’t submit the same bike two months in a row. Did I forget any other lunatic rules?
  8. Hmm the last day tickets are 16.00 so not exactly stargazing time.
  9. Looks worth it. The Observatory itself has no availability until February 2025 and is €519 per night. Not sure I’d want to stay overnight at that altitude, last time it gave me crushing head pains and I’d already acclimatised to the 1500 metre mark prior so a straight up to 2800 metres doesn’t much appeal. There are hotels/apartments down at the bottom of the cable car and thats over 1000 metres lower which would be better on the the ol’ red cells and kinder to the wallet! But does the cable car still run after dark ie would you get to see the stars?!
  10. Might need to do some altitude training first
  11. Sure is The Pic de Midi observatory wow! That is going on my list.
  12. Forgot all about it. Just finished the first one. A good watch. The Pyrenees are so beautiful. Even Portillo’s just about palatable, but WTF is he wearing - an overcoat in the mountains
  13. For anyone living under a rock that’s The White Stripes
  14. Well most of the time I forget and last month yours was the best pic so there’s that.
  15. Too late it’s gone, I wrote the post and immediately set about eradicating the animal living on my head!
  16. Good to know I’m not going to be locked into the world of skunk forever
  17. Tbh I stopped looking at the BOTM thread a while ago when it went rule mad. But if six enters thats who I vote for first. Then I’ll randomly move it to whoever has the least votes (usually you, you topbox horror shop) then eventually on the last switch I’ll actually look at the photos and vote for the pic I like best. If I remember
  18. Decided that now I’m 50 I’d let my grey hair grow and embrace it. Well turns out I’m still only grey in a strip down the centre of my head. I look like I’d be a good fit for someone.. Edit- I’m 51 not 50, it’s ok to start forgetting that stuff now right?
  19. Tis global Pete. Spain sits between the UK and France for resistant staph with the US top of the charts. Although theres not a huge amount in it numbers wise. But I wouldn’t worry about it. Even if it caused you a problem they’re much better at recognising and treating it now, there are still antibiotics that work, they’re just the ones that fell out of favour for causing GI upsets.
  20. Nothing, it’s a city. Tis the same if not more upmarket than decades ago, fighting gentrification in fact. But if you will go comparing it to Swansea..
  21. Back up from stooges, very Trump. Independent enquiry needed and not the IOPC sort where the investigators are ex-police. You need a truly independent spirit like… zzzak. Yep that’d be fun Hope I remember to vote switch repeatedly this time, I forgot last time.
  22. If you were from Brizzle you’d immediately assume he was nicking it too
