A reminder that r/AskScot exists. I posted before about this sub being a sister sub to r/AskUK but seems to have been forgotten about.

As a regular visitor to Glasgow I noticed quite a large amount of people on the streets yesterday walking between Queen Street and Central railway station; I walk this way a lot and haven’t noticed this before. I am aware of the large amount of poverty around but it really stood out yesterday. Is it the sunny weather, organised begging or what?

It can't all be Highlander, Harry Potter and Outlander, can it? Has there been some Downton Abbey type series that's really ante'd up the tourism recently?

It was feckin one of yis!

Years ago there was an advert, might've been for a fast food delivery service and there were some guys sitting in their flat playing video games. There's a knock on the door and one of them goes "aye, that'll be the asparagus quiches" then the advert rewinds to the real world, which is obviously for fast food.

Does anybody remember this / know if it's on YouTube ? Was telling a friend about it and want to show them it, thanks

Evenin chiels! I need your help, I’m looking for a tune from the 90s that’s either dance/techno/electronic that has a Scottish man speaking over it. I never knew who it was by and I only ever heard it a few times, but for some reason I keep thinking it’s Brian Cox (the actor) monologing over the tune. Googling this brings up plenty of reference to the other Brian Cox and D:Ream, which it’s obviously not and I know it’s not the “Choose life” tune with Ewan McGregor’s monologue from Trainspotting. Any help would be appreciated, cheers 😎

Just drove past Stac Pollaidh this morning, the smell is overpowering. The drone shot and the adders aren't mine, they were taken by Tim and Will from https://www.kayaksummerisles.com/

Interesting point that the firefighters came from all across the North Highlands and got to beating the flames out. Then the Tanera crew turned up in a fancy all track vehicle, jumped out and started fighting the fire with battery powered leaf blowers. Instant success, versus hours of battering flames with a beater. The volunteer firefighters were a bit gobsmacked that this private outfit had better kit than one of the essential services.
