Up the M6, over the border and turn left, follow the coast road or tourist route north, some stunning views, although you've missed the best of the weather, Scotland only gets one day's sunshine a year.....7th Junelol

Most rural places in Scotland are really nice, i live in Aberdeen city which is plainly a dour dump full of unfriendly people but...30 mins drive and your out in beautiful countryside, great roads and it's brilliant, apart from the weather of course!

Deeside is really nice this time of year.

if tj wants to see glaswegan pissheads fighting, he can just go to a certain part of coalville, its called the scotlands(seriously.. they were brought down to work in coal mines), and is as sectarian as it gets...

Edd
13-10-12, 11:18 AM

Like you?! lol lol lol

Seriously though mate, don't make your financial situation worse. Sit down, and work it out. Don't run away from it, even if it's only for a few days. That's a good few hundred extra that you shouldn't be wasting at a guess.

Sorry to be the voice of reason and all that, but it makes sense!

Limp talks sense. No point wasting money running away from money problems, just go for a walk and have a think instead lol

there is a good chip shop in bridge of allan.. just over the bridge on the left..

Id hate to think what the chippys like where you live if you think the chippy in the bridge of Allan's good, it's rotten. Best chip shop known to man is in anstruther (next to crail) also in Scotland by the way. You will queue for an hour for a fish supper on a weekend tho.

Not to bump a finished thread or owt but....

If monies that thin on the ground, pishing it up the wall on cars is the last thing you want to be doing is it not? Let alone going away for weekend breaks etc...

I dunno, when i was having mega money troubles bout ten years ago, i found getting another credit card and blowing it on a car very therapeutic lol

Probably is therapeutic, buts itll only make a real bad situation far worse.

If anyones deluded enough to think there car will pay there bills/debt then more fool them. But raising quick cash for debt repayment or a house purchase etc is easily made from selling car parts.

are you some sort of financial adviser ?

Not anymore no, jumped ship from Egg many years ago.

Im not short sighted either, an the most obvious answer is blatantly there infront of the OP.

lol @ lecture.... far from it.

People moan like fcuk there short of cash, dont get paid enough, yadda yadda etc etc & what monies they do have they still pish it away. So dont get me started on lectures.

And who the funk is Martin Lewis?
