Pre theatre Edinburgh
Capital Saint replied to stirlish's topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
For Italian, Il Castello has always been one of my favourites and it's just round the corner. The Blue Blazer is good for a post theatre dram -

Today's Games
Capital Saint replied to DoonTheSlope's topic in Football related - Discussion of non TA football
I cannae disagree with you (that'll be a first ;-) ) From where I was sitting, Aberdeen won the first half by a mile, Saints lost the second half. I've been saying for weeks that oor goalie needs to have a word with himself. My pals are beginning to agree with me after today's performance. Aberdeen thoroughly deserved the win, and probably should have won by more (a 5-1 revenge soreline wouldn't have flattered you) But, cor blimey, the last time I saw a ref blow up for full time in the situation he did was the Welsh guy (Clive Thomas?) in the World cup in a game where Brazil scored. Saints player, bearing down on two Aberdeen players in the box, one defender just about to pull him down when the whistle goes. Weird. -

I'm on the train from Edinburgh (changed at Stirling) and it's packed with Dons fans. :-( -
From a selfish point of view, I’m glad it’s at Tynecastle. I can wander down to the game, meet my mates in the Prison club that their bus is booked into, and have a wee bevvy before the game. But, I agree with you. I think the blame of the ticket situation lies firmly at the door of St. Johnstone's bargainers. . St Johnstone should have said “We want 6000 tickets and, if we can’t sell them, then Hibs can get the rest”. Rather than, “Can we have 3 thousand odd and, if we have demand for a wee bit more, can we get a wee bit more tickets.” In short, in my opinion, it’s our board’s and therefore the chief (Steve Brown) fault that our fans can’t get to the game

I understand they are saying it's the worst in 100 years. But it's not happening in this country, and other countires have it worse, I might (just) understand if it was tagged on at the end of the news, but it was the major topic. What makes me question it even more is that the pictures they show are pretty insignificant when compared to what I've seen every so often in Dunkeld.

January Transfer News

He is not a striker. He only happens to score the odd goal here and there. Usually against pish teams -
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-35273252 Aw, I used to like Junior Chioce. It's where I first heard Hole in the Ground by Bernard Cribbens and My Brother by Terry Scott. along with this absolute classic

Scottish Cup Draw
Capital Saint replied to Squirrelhumper's topic in Football related - Discussion of non TA football
So do I. I get that annoyed when Saints do it. Let the ref and his assistants decide if the game needs to be stopped. If it gets stopped, lets have good old fashioned stramash at the drop ball. -

Who,s Staying Where
Capital Saint replied to Scottie27's topic in Anything Goes - Other topics not covered elsewhere
I just did (well, since the football is off I have some time on my hands) and the first 3 I watched tied them in 3 different ways. And none of them was the same as I would do it. -
Wedding Songs

I'm busy listening to some tunes. This one came on and I thought about this thread. If in doubt, listen to The Carpenters -
Well, risking saying more than I should, I met a lovely LT girl in 2006 who moved over here in 2008. We go back to visit her parents quite often and they stay quite neat Kaunas.

I'm listening to this countdown https://www.mixcloud.com/owenandrew/retro-countdown-1973-12-15-uk-top-40/ -
I have to admit, I've only been in Kanuas 2 or 3 times a year since 2006. There are lots of places in Kaunas I've not managed to visit so I dont feel as qualified as you others who appear to have been in every part of every street in Kaunas so I bow to your greater knowledge

Kinnoull Club in Perth was always my starting point when going out with my pals. Work nights out were always held on a Thursday, starting off at The Windsor and ended up at The Grampian for Grab a Granny night. When I moved to Aberdeen it was usually Gabriels we went to. I even found myself in Champers after an Aberdeen Saints game where I bumped into Neale Cooper
