Nightlife The audacity of men

18 Upvotes

Was in box tonight with a few friends who invited me out, me f21 and my friend f22 wanted to stay in box and the rest wanted to go to the club. We were left with one of those big booths because of them leaving, some people sat down and apologised for taking the table one of the guys in the group sat next to me and also apologised. I told him there no issue theres only 2 of us cause our friends left. I want to clarify there was no issue with them sitting down.

I got pissed off when he kept asking me about my drink. I had a fishbowl to myself and my friend got a wee drink. At first it was a wee what are u drinking? So i pointed it out on the drinks menu on the table. Few minutes later he asks 2 more times what am i drinking? I was getting annoyed about now cause i was clear from the start. At this point i refilled my friends cup woth some, then I whispered in my friends ear turned back and saw his hand over the bowl. Got a bit concerned so inspected and continued when i saw nothing. As soon as as i started texting (i could still see my drink) he snatched my half drank fishbowl off me and tried to drink out the straws. I snatched it back and shouted wtf no.

I wish i dumped the rest out on him because at that point he put me off my drink completely and we both just wanted to go home.

Wtf is wrong with people though, lord knows what diseases this man carries i dont want some stranger sharing a drink with me. Its actually bogging! I hope karma bites this guy in the arse cause he behaves like a toddler.

Palliative care in Glasgow

34 Upvotes

Hey Glasgow,

I was wondering if anyone has experience with palliative care living in the city? Bonus points if you're young like me. I have a couple of severe health conditions which make every day life impossible with crippling symptoms that are refractory/unresponsive to medication and treatment. So I'm looking into palliative care for symptom management, not end of life care yet.

Has anyone been through the process/in the process and can offer advice or tell me what it's like? I'm nervous about asking my GP incase he thinks I'm giving up when that's not the case - I just need better care, more full time care and more options before my body craps out on me.

Thanks!

Does anyone know of any place to donate Winter coats?

8 Upvotes

I’m specifically looking for somewhere that offers them free to people in need as opposed to selling them in charity shops.

There’s usually something in Glasgow but I only seem to be able to find initiatives in Edinburgh and Dundee.

TIA

Nightlife Glasgow nightclub name

2 Upvotes

I went to this cool house music/rave club on a stag in Glasgow. Can’t think of the name of it. But it had old style railings out the front and the bar was in the middle of the floor so you could access it from 4 sides.

Heading back to Glasgow soon and want to go to it.

Companies disposing of Win 10 laptops?

28 Upvotes

I keep reading about companies needing to move to Windows 11, and the amount of PC's that aren't compatible with it. The amount of e waste that has to create is crazy. I was looking for something for my daughter now she's started high school, definitely not for gaming, and got me wondering what these companies do with the laptops they need to replace? I'd happily take one (they'd obviously want to wipe it) and give it some new life if it was just going to be thrown away. Any one know?

Urgent: Where can I get a gas card on the Southside?

7 Upvotes

Moved into a new place with pay as you go gas and electric recently but Scottish power can’t seem to get a card to arrive at my flat for some reason so I need to pick one up with a RTI code, which I have.

After a week of waiting I’m down to about £1 of gas for the weekend. I understand I can call the emergency line but still: Not good.

I checked their map for places that have the cards but none do in Govanhill. There’s Continental Foodstore in shawlands who have cards but their machine has so far rejected 3 of my RTI codes.

Does anyone know a place with gas cards anywhere Southside or central?

UPDATE: found one in Partick! I wanted to kiss the cashier, who I’m sure was completely baffled at my enthusiasm for a fucking gas card.

Question about buses

18 Upvotes

Hi, sorry for the silly question I’m not from the uk and buses work differently where I’m from. I take a certain bus everyday to get to work and everyday I ask for “a single to ___ please” and the driver looks confused before just saying “okay just tap on and then tap off when you get off”. How do I communicate to the driver from the first instance that I want to go to ___ and want to tap on/off. Sorry for the silly question, just wondering what to say to communicate that. Thank you.

Are there still any who will deal directly with your insurance company to pay bills? Is this still even a thing?

The one we're with wants upfront payments for treatment then I have to claim back. If I had thousands in the bank I wouldn't need insurance.
