A question about : Edinburgh city centre parking

Can someone please recommend where to park in Edinburgh for free or at least cheap?!

Preferably as close to the city centre as possible, but happy to walk if necessary.

Thanks

A question about : Glasgow companies to replace/renovate windows

I have an old Glasgow tenement flat with drafty, rattly old sash windows. I am looking to either renovate or replace them this summer - but I'm looking to avoid the dreaded double glazing salesmen!

Can anyone recommend any reliable firms in the Glasgow area that do good quality, reasonably priced window renovations and/or replacement double glazing?

Thanks for your help.

A question about : Asian/Indian Supermarkets in Edinburgh/Lothian/Borders (lol)

As a recent blow-in to southern Scotland (I previously lived in Northumberland) I'm looking for an Asian supermarket in Edinburgh or the Lothians (ideally in the Borders - but I'm a realist).... I'm familiar with the best of them around Newcastle, but not Edinburgh....

Anyone got any they'd like to share ? (They're next to impossible to spot in the yellow pages etc).

A question about : Santa Train Clyde Valley Lanarkshire

Heard about this, but cannot find it on a google search.

Anyone know about a short train journey that ends with a Soft Play are and Santa Grotto.

Along Clyde Valley Lanarkshire, but NOT Sandyholme Garden centre as I just phoned them - they have no train.

A question about : Clearance Stores/Outlets in Glasgow

Hi

We're planning on spending some money on updating bits and pieces in our house this year. Was wondering if peeps out there new of any clearance/outlet stores for furniture and the likes around the Glasgow area?

4 years ago there was a Reid furniture outlet in Tradeston as we got our suite from there. Don't think it is there now so wonder if anyone new if there was one somewhere?

A question about : Cash & Carry Stores in Glasgow

HI there,
I have had a few people tell me that there are a number of Cash and Carry stores in Glasgow and open to the public. I wondered if anyone had any experience of these and how they would rate them for cost/value for money?

Please post details of where they are too please. Then we can all take advantage of them.

Cheers
Andy

A question about : Mid-term invasion of Edinburgh

We are really looking forward to the upcoming visit of Pink-Winged and her family in just over a week's time and have plans made to do a jumpy-oot Ghost Tour with the kids and a girlie visit to Ikea

I think Pink also plans to visit Edinburgh Castle and the (by now) traditional open topped bus tour of the city.

Anyone else from MSE visiting Edinburgh in the next wee while that would like to say hello on this thread?
