The Glasgow Clan.
Previously the Braehead Clan before they decided being named after a shopping centre might limit the potential size of the fanbase.

How's the celtic scene for ice hockey? I had a poke around London once but didn't see many teams.

I have to go to London two days a week and I resent every second of it. Is this despite or because of living there for 15 years?

i was following someone in london through some backstreets to the first of many transit interchanges on the way back to their home. It was so thick with people I thought it was a festival or an international incident or something but it was just wednesday evening.

When I first moved out to where I am now and went to the pub with someone I was a little baffled that we could just pick one and go in and have plenty of space. Every pub in London is rammed out the door every night of every week.

I have to go on a rock climbing wall course so I can supervise disabled children rock climbing.

I have never done rock climbing in my life and have the noodle arms of a 5 year old, the disabled children have done this many times before.

This is going to be deeply humiliating.

top tip: do your best to hang on your skeleton rather than your arm muscles, your arms should be straight most of the time to avoid getting tired. Climb with your legs, just keep balance with your hands.

That should stop you getting shown up too bad

Is there something wrong with Carlisle? Seems a nice place, small historical city.

E: if this is not the thing to post just let me know. Himself hates it when I look at houses so it's nice to have a place I can moon over things I can't afford

Too far north for me. The moment I saw "M6" in the description I was filled with dread.

anyone got any recommendations or warnings about moving companies and storage spaces in London?

I went with Rogers Removals and they were fine if you're looking for an actual company. I used their storage but it was outside of London at that point.

There's also a man-with-van I used to move within London several times if your stuff will fit in a transit van. I can pass over his details if that's what you're after.
