Car Boot in East Neuk
People on here always asking for locations of Car Boots. Crail Car Boot runs alternate Sundays on Crail airfield with the last two this year being 21st Sept and 5th Oct.

Scottish Sellers on eBay and Amazon
Thought I would raise this as I haven't seen anyone else talking about it. Have read a lot of "Yes" vote literature which takes the stance that if you are outbid on an eBay auction because you won't pay a few pence more for postage for that collectable Star Wars figure than some bloke in Wolverhampton, then it's no big…

Glasgow window repairs
I'm new to the forums and I hope it's not bad form if my first post is a question! Can anyone recommend a company to repair timber windows in Glasgow? One of the windows in my flat is rotting at the lower edge. They aren't sash windows, they are horrible single-glazed wooden windows which pivot around a central point so…

Trams
Pretty fed up that the Bus Pass is not valid on the trams unless it has been issued in Edinburgh. Over 60's from anywhere else in Scotland other than Edinburgh have to pay full whack. It won't take long for the 100 bus service to be reduced/withdrawn to push people on to the trams so it looks like one benefit for the over…

Despite intensive local media coverage and police, SSPCA etc notified, it has not been found. Search is now going nationwide as dog may have been 'adopted' and taken elsewhere in UK.…
