    Highlands?

    Did you really mean there's no cinema within 50miles?

    Actually I forgot, there is one about 30 miles away. I think it is run by the local council but I could be wrong. Anyways, it is hardly ever open so it doesn't count.

    No cinema, no theatre to speak of (unless you are into well meaning amateurs), no motorways, no jobs.

    Very little crime though and the natives are friendly.

    Well it's about the biggest forum this side of Stranraer so ...

    I've used MSE for years and reincarnated to sss as i was a mod on another forum and had the same user name and thought i better change it.

    Then a few months ago i found this "crazy" hole and thought it looked "interesting".

    Thanks for that ws, was beginning to feel like a proper bumpty outcast :o:rotfl:
    I am 200 miles to your left ... I looked at Martin's list of voucher restaurants earlier and there were none near me ... except a Burger King. Rest were 2-3 counties away. It's always the same.

    Same with reading the boards... "try Wilkinsons" ... "try Netto" ... "try Waitrose" ... "try Primark" ... "Poundland have them" ...

    But I am nowhere near any of those.... none in the county.
