Queer night scene

I went to triple XL in the south side on Saturday and I just loved it so much, the way everyone was so comfortable in being sexy and being themselves along with the hard music was amazing. I have had nights out in gay clubs of course but i am looking for more of these queer rave spaces where everyone can be themselves with no judgement. Any suggestions please let me know.

Classic Grand - a couple of questions

Going on Friday to see a double bill, any idea what time the support usually starts if doors open at 6

Also, had a look in trip advisor and the few reviews were awful. Why's it actually like?

Cheers

Current Referral/Wait Time For Money Matters?

My partner has just requested a self-referral to the Money Matters service, but they were only able to tell her that they had no appointments currently and were unable to give an estimate of timescale on the waiting list, so she has no idea if the wait time is likely to be days, weeks or months (or years).

Has anybody else had a recent referral to this service who might be able to advise on roughly how long the wait time might be?

Thanks very much in advance!

Garden shed conundrum

So there’s this shed sitting next to the pathway that leads to both mine and my neighbor’s back garden. The land registry says it’s shared access, so owned by both of us.

This shed once belonged to my downstairs neighbor who died last year. The house was left to her sister and she eventually sold it to my new neighbor who has been there for six months.

The shed is locked and I assumed the sister would have given the new owner a key to it, however I’m pretty certain they have not because I’ve never seen them use the shed even though they have been out in their garden every day, weather permitting, for the last two months planting flowers and trees, laying down pavers, etc. In fact they leave all of their tools, flower pots, all the stuff you would normally keep in a shed out in the rain. To make sure of this without being too conspicuous I piled a small mound of dirt in front of the shed door which has sat undisturbed for nearly a month now. All that to say they must think it’s mine because they’re not using it at all.

Anyway this is all going on as I’ve been considering buying a shed for myself.

Wife says I should tell the neighbor but truth be told he’s been an absolute dick head since he moved in, like asking the retired woman next door if he can buy her house for his son when she dies (yes really). And also constantly leaving rotting food in open bags which are then strewn around their garden by sea gulls and foxes despite me asking him to please place bags in the bin instead of setting them on the ground. For this he went door to door to all the other neighbors to complain about me, though they all told him the same thing and that it would attract vermin.

Anyway I’m generally a friendly and honest person and probably would tell him otherwise but in this case, to recap: he doesn’t have a key, doesn’t know that it’s his, is in fact a dickhead, and it is sitting on property I own in a perfect spot that doesn’t take up any room in my actual garden.

What should I do?

Edit: The lock on the shed is incorporated into the door so no padlock to simply cut off

Good electricians?

My house needs some light fixtures fixed and sockets replaced and I don't feel comfortable attempting that task myself. I could also do with having my extractor fan in my bathroom fixed to make it quieter or replaced because it is so loud that it makes it harder to be in that space than it needs to be.

Based near Finnieston.

I hope it's okay for me to ask here, as I see it as finding word-of-mouth recommendation which I trust a bit more than what I see as more SEO driven 'find a trader' sites in my initial research into things.

Thanks to whoever put my scarf on a electric box near Bellahouston!

So went to the my chemical romance gig last night and had SUCH an amazing time! Bit of a less amazing time trying to get back home 🤣 My fiancé and I where walking trying to get an uber that wouldn't cost £100, took a path from Gower St to Maclellan St. And I fell really badly thanks to a manhole cover sticking out about 2 inches from the ground! Quite badly bruised and scrapped but alive 😐 but I lost my glasses and scarf as I was in pain and really worried I broke my knee!

Anyway, my fiancé went to go look for my glasses and didn't find it, but DID FIND MY SCARF 💓✨️ I know its a bit silly to care more about a scarf than glasses, but im due a new pair anyway so all is well :) 💓

Dundasvale Car Park

Without saying too much, is the car park at Dundasvale still without an operator? I'm working near there this week and it would be very helpful if it was accessible.

90s Ice cream vans. What’s the name of that type of ice cream?

Some chippies sell the same type. It’s white like McDonald’s but so much better. I hate magnolia vanilla ice cream. I want o recreate a ‘Bobby special’ it was called and I have everything but not the right ice cream.

Kind strangers you still remember

We’re all aware of the negatives of Glasgow, but it’s still full of lovely folk. What sticks in your mind when you think back?

It’s a small thing but in 2020 I was 18 working at a McDonald’s in town. I had the job of standing at the exit door and asking folk to go round to the entrance door. Riveting. The December that year is THE most raging I have ever seen the public in my 8 years of working customer facing jobs.

I told a woman to go round, which she did (while muttering), but when it came time to queue for the till she got it in her head I’d let others in past her. I hadn’t, but that didn’t stop her. Eventually I just told her to shut up (this was 6 hours into dealing with abuse, after a long fucking year of it). At that point a woman who wasn’t even involved started having a go at me, calling me a disgrace, a prick, all sorts. So now I had two middle aged women coming at me with utter fury, at which point a guy, quite tall maybe 30ish stepped in, told both of them to fuck up, pointed out they’re abusing someone a third of their age, on minimum wage, just doing what he’s been told. They laid off, I got pulled into the office anyway before I could really thank the guy but I gave him a grateful nod on the way. Thank you, McDonald’s man, I’ll always appreciate you.

Ps to the MULTIPLE middle aged men who threatened to assault me during that period, hope you’ve experienced only the absolute worse in life since.

Hope Street Bus Gate times

Just drove through the bus gate at about 21:30, was dropping somebody off after a long drive and in bad weather and accidentally went through the bus gate. Can anyone confirm what the operational times for the bus gate are? Can’t find any concrete info online. Really can’t afford a bus gate fine at the moment :(
