Just back from the perk. Got to hang out with a couple of our closest friends, and the “one other household” rule meant that we could shoo away our friend's weedy chum who came over to say hello

Edinburgh in the sunshine is absolutely ridiculous

Sitting feeling like I've got a hangover. Zero bevvy consumed

Nice of your granny to leave you her suite.

So good though.

Do you bring your own milk cartons and they fill them up! What beer and how much, if you don't mind me asking.

That's how I felt most of Thursday and a good part of Friday then went on a good sesh Friday evening and felt fine this morning!


Quite intentially didn't re-stock as I knew I'd be tempted to just sit there in the dark out back tanning leffe again.

They provide the cartons.

All of their beers are available. £9 for about 3.5 pints per carton.

Open Thurs-Sat 2-6.

Been on a few of the Henry Westons Cider today. 8.2% in this heat

That's not bad! If I got a couple I'd be gassed by the time I hit Porty.

Pondy rocking up to the brewery with a carrier bag full of his fousty old milk cartons wanting them filled.

I've always been environmentally unconscious, Acey.

'Come on hen just chuck it in anyway'

Pondy have you been smashing up porty? 7 panda cars and 2 meatwagons just flew down Bath Street towards the promenade,


I'm certain a couple of the panda cars were attempting to break the land speed record

Nahh (was probably along near Seafield at that time), but about an hour ago just as I was about to reach your street (from Joppa) I suggested a teenage girl (maybe 16) "Calm doon" but "She said she was gonna kick ma cunt in" about a single foreign lady on a Just Eat bike. The Lassie literally jumped off her nountain bike and threw it violently and stormed toward the woman. ybf I did hear the European say something about giving her a smack but I suspect there was something happening just before as she negotiated this feral group of scots.

Actually thought it a pretty tame saturday tbh, Rory. Hope you now park your car in mentone.

Aye the cars been in mentone since lockdown, bought a bicycle for exercise so the car has barely moved bar the occasional trip down to my aunts with shopping for her.
Just watched some drunk polish lads(easily mid 20's) on those long skateboards falling into cars all the way up Bath street. Told them to fuck off but they paid little attention.

It's amazing how porty goes from being quite chilled out and peaceful to absolute chaos the second the suns out and it's a long weekend or bank holiday, lived down this end of town for the majority of my life as well but it's only started hit home now I'm so close to the beach.

Aye, it's a tight squeeze down your way. Last few days its been back to the usual of hardly being able to park in my street. Much busier obviously. Not sure if it's just a coincidence but the car has developed an issue since the lockdown in sthe sense that it's been relative,y idle bar the odd fortnight trip up to Asda for a bit of variety shopping. The Emissions Control light and EPC has come on and the turbo doesn't appear to be kicking in. Hope it's something simple from just the sitting around. Yup, love the place but it can go a bit mental at times.

I'm no expert on cars Pondy, but I think your car needs a good run on the motorway to try and clear the filter out a bit. The short journeys won't be helping it, so a few runs along the motorway should help.

Thats probably a good shout, Floyd. Failing that I've already booked a slot at Arnold Clark. I phoned the afternoon they opened as it turned out and earliest appointment was three weeks hence! if the turbo is away im seriously hoping its covered under warranty.
