Sainsburys at Straiton in Edinburgh (next to ikea) has finally had its disaster of a canopy replaced, yet still makes you go into the shop to pay Have always wondered why they felt this store needed 16 fuel pumps. Have also been confused by the Costco next door having pay-at-pump only pumps, but no...

Don't know about your specific bulbs, but I use https://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/ for all my LED replacement bulbs and always get excellent service. Thanks! The G4s are the first three bulbs listed on this page . Very keen prices for the halogen capsules, so I will stick with these for now. Turns out t...

The other thing is I've never been able to locate a nice set of LED lights with the old skool flowery shaped shades - you can still get these on old fashioned sets, but not LED.

Gotta be honest, I don't think you're trying hard enough: Swiss cheese.

So the NX/Stagecoach merger (takeover) is confirmed as going ahead . Not sure about Citylink coaches up here which is owned jointly by ComfortDelGro/Stagecoach. It's a rather tired looking operation - would be nice to see it branded NX with a better website and apps. My former wish won't be happenin...
