Re: Picture framer recommendation
Blindcraft along Duddingston Road West are very reasonable and you are supporting a good cause.

Our cat has just run up the tree successfully knocking off several glass baubles and some lights. What takes the biscuit, however, were his antics at 5 in the morning when we were woken by an almighty racket from the living room. You'd swear there was a really incompetent burglar crashing about the...

Luckily Mrs Hatstand heard my heaving sighs, and came through from the living room where she had been watching some football game or other, then climbed up the ladders to rescue me. She brought me down in a fireman's lift and put me gently to bed. Were Hibs getting beat again? Poor boys. It must be...

I have calmed down now. Work today was difficult with so little sleep. The car isn't worth a lot of money. It is not worth claiming our Insurance and losing our no claims etc., The boys only looked about 14/15. What were they doing out at 3am on a Tuesday evening? Didn't their parents wonder where t...

Sheer Vandalism at 3am
I'm sitting here at 4.30am unable to sleep. At 3am this morning I heard some unusual noises outside our house. I got up, went over to the window to see five hooded teenagers inside our car. They had bent the driver's door back, opened the door and got into the car. One youth was rummaging around in ...

Re: Center Parcs
I've never been that keen on the concept of Center Parcs, but once you have a kid you find yourself doing all sorts of things you once vowed you'd never do. We normally have a very nice, peaceful Easter break in the Cowal peninsula, but the Center Parcs ad has grabbed the attention of my son. Havin...

Re: Klaze.......
Tom, you should be grateful shops want to open on Portobello High Street and be happy about it, better a shop being taken than an empty shop.. and I defintely agree that a shop which isn't a charity shop should be encouraged to be. Yes, lets encourage new business in Portobello. We don't want to se...

1. Spin Doctors released "Jimmy Olsen's Blues" from the album "Pocket full of Kryptonite" in 1993. I don't know how many comics Jimmy Olsen appears in. I must confess, I am not an avid Superman fan.
