Go see it!! Story/town is meant to be set in Dundee but you’ll notice throughout an iconic Glasgow pub being featured and shots around Glasgow green.

Decent wee film with mad story

Received this email from ScotRail this morning.

“We’re writing to let you know about an upcoming change to rules for travelling on ScotRail services.

We’re introducing a new £10 minimum fare for journeys where a ticket hasn’t been purchased before boarding, but could have been. The minimum fare is intended to provide a clear and consistent approach for all customers and help reduce anti-social behaviour on the railway, which is often caused by a small minority travelling without a ticket.

We’ve now begun an education period to give customers time to become familiar with the change. From 1 July 2026, the £10 minimum fare will be put in place.

There are some exclusions where the minimum fare will not apply, including:

If your station has no ticket office, or it is closed and there is no ticket vending machine (TVM)

If you hold a National Entitlement Card

If accessibility requirements mean you cannot access the ticket office or use a TVM

Customers who can only pay in cash and can’t access a ticket office must obtain a ‘promise to pay’ ticket from a TVM and then purchase a ticket from on-train staff.

Further information is available on our website.”

Let the discussion commence.

Whats with the rise in youth acting like roadmen, trying to tax people for walking through the underpass near the subway, when did this become a thing in Glasgow and when did they start to refer to places as the ends?

any good black metal bars or clubs in glasgow? i don’t see shows very often so…

Got conflicting advice from my pals- some say Gumtree, others say eBay. Got people talking about Back Market and CeX too.

Btw: Any advice about the right model to buy and a good price for 'em would be appreciated.

Also: Please no advice for buying a PlayStation instead. Buying it for my da to help with his coordination.

Came here to vent on the Steamie only to vent about the Steamie.

Hey, I passed my test at the start of the year and have just started driving again.

I’ve just been doing short drives around my local area for now, but I’m looking to drive for a bit longer this weekend.

Can anyone recommend any easy-ish drives about 30/45mins from Glasgow? Bonus points if the destination is nice and I can make an afternoon of it.

Thanks!

Road surface is being repaired so entrance on Great Western Road is closed. Traffic is backed up all over the car park, moving nowhere fast.

Hey there! Looking for some friends.

From Ireland, 30m and 31m, gonna be going to the cathouse nightclub/bar on saturday and anywhere else. :)

Anyone want to meet up and hang out?

Love meeting people and making friends!

Automods being a lazy cunt. Again.

Buying & Selling

Got something you want to buy or sell? Head over to r/glasgowmarket.

Has anyone used Flatpack Amigos for furniture assembly in Glasgow? They have reviews online but they don't have a Trustpilot. They are nationwide too, so I think this company basically broker a deal with a local assembly team and take a cut.

Grateful to hear anyone else's experiences with other assemblers in Glasgow.

Hi folks,

I was wondering if there's anyone who's applied for a course at the RCS before and can tell me how long they roughly waited to hear back about an audition please.

I submitted my application months ago but the deadline for applications was the end of March, so I'm constantly keeping an eye on my emails/Acceptd now. As you can imagine it's a bit anxiety inducing waiting to hear if I do get one or not. It would be great to hear other people's experiences!

Thank you 😊
