Thanks for getting the photo to me! :)

Thanks will pm you just now! Small world!

It's me on my dads shoulders! :) can you forward the full resolution image/scan?

Is Aladdins, Nawab, Manzil & Dalyanos not all owned by the same folk? Had food from them all over the last couple of months apart from Dalyanos and cant fault any of them - good meals/buffet sitting in and massive helpings from the carry out!

I went up to check out the proposal. This proposal is only to gain planning permission for a "super market & petrol station" on the site of the old farm. Once/if the permission is granted the developers will sell it on at a large profit to the highest bidding supermarket! They are also hopeful that the money they contribute to various road improvements will favour them with the council. I doubt anyone that lives up that way wants more traffic lights, traffic or the additional noise this will bring! They couldnt even have an upto date base map that had all the houses on it that are effected by the proposed development! Also there is no benefit to this over the other proposal at the Dobbies site - which is the better of the two. This would also give a large supermarket to all the proposed new houses that will de developed in that area....... last page / pink shaded area - http://www.pkc.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/DA293134-FE22-4937-BCB9-DC8950DA90EE/0/ProposedPlanforweb.pdf

When i was a lot younger i think there was up to a group of 10 of us (all father/son etc) that attended every week (1995/1996/1997/1998 seasons) and sat in the Ormond Stand and half would travel to every away game. Numbers declined due to work/price, we got season tickets in the east (me & my dad), then just started going to select games now none as yet this season. Its just far to expensive for an afternoon out. Even if we were top of the league im sure a lot wouldn't be willing/able to spend £20 on entry for 90 minutes! Now from that original 10+ all those years ago to now only a few games a season between everyone mainly due to work/price - all still saints fans. Im sure there are plenty more on here that have done the same.

I asked a friend about this and its all traditional japanese - next to no ground work. Hopefully someone starts up BJJ in Perth or Sambo but thats highly unlikely!

How much is that class? And is it Gi or no Gi?

What locally owned business are left that will loose their customers to Sainsbury? Local business will always suffer - has done since internet shopping.......... Having the Sainsbury on this site will be good for business, as with the other thread regarding the stand removal/road improvements this will be a selling point for the expansion of this area of town/inveralmond area.

Next page has residential also but i cant see that happening! With how the new road lay out is - i think the longer term plan might be to build a new stadium but it will be turned 90 degrees and take up some of the astro turf. This development would include a large indoor pitch, gym etc and parking behind the current east stand? The farm would go allowing some more retail units. Inveralmond will expand to connect up to the new slip road / round about that can be seen on "Map 1: Road Link to the North of McDiarmid Park"

Saints are a club that need to make money - which we will from this. Away fans can go in the Ormond stand instead!

As they have committed to making the road wider etc to help traffic issues and probably pledged money towards the new road at the back of the north stand they will get approval on the basis of jobs - both during the construction and once the shops as 450 part/full time is roughly 1% of Perths population! Along with the selling local produce and wanting to compete with Tesco their will be some form of price war which is only good for our pockets! And the old market isnt really much use now with most agriculture sales taking place at a new purpose built facility near Stirling!

Update on the ladlady from down south - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-15162241

Fair trade / EU for just now i believe!

Perths crying out for a dedicated all round facility like that - i know of a couple people who have looked in to it but the unit costs/rents are crazy money before even equipping the place. I know its well worth travelling out of Perth for decent training but it soon adds up if you cant arrange another 2 or 3 regulars to split the travell costs!

Theres only really Judo and Karate in Perth. Kickboxing at Tulloch is more CV based rather than drilling techniques etc and they have no ring and i dont think any bags yet. Railway club boxing - horrific if you actually want to go anywhere with boxing, old guy in charge can be pretty nasty to some of the younger guys and foreigners that attend. You only really get a boxing based fitness/ciruit. To be fair your best bets are out with Perth - Dundee has Shooters MMA (very well run club with different classes each night), they also have TNT Kickboxing which is more K1 based rather than point fighting. Fife - loads of good clubs, Urban Distrubance, Unity as well as a couple of good Thai Boxing gyms such as Carnage and the one above Unity MMA. Edinburgh - Rick Youngs Black Belt Academy (very very highly rated & trained owner/instructer) Glasgow - Griphouse is good, top level coaching at boxing, bjj, thia etc and there are loads of others gyms through there depending on what your after. But if you want to train proper, good equipment, gyms/clubs that put on shows/seminars etc dont train in Perth! /\ thats why the Karate does well here, dont really need much apart from a hall and maybe some pads and top level coaches ( and the judo guys are doing well but im sure a permanently matted floor would make a massive difference!)

it was on one of the big conspiracy documentry shows i saw - but a plane against a bomb proof complex, going through multiple layers of walls........ i have my doubts - WTC7 - More doubt about the plane that hit WTC - http://youtu.be/wbCcb6NV8Io I know these are just links to youtube etc but they do all make a valid point!!

im pretty sure your right with them being from portugal and most have a decent summer tan which wasnt from our summer in scotland! is it not if you employ people via an agency withing in the eu then you get around minimum wage in this country..........?

I still reckon there were some sort of explosives in the twin towers as a building doesnt blow out level by level!!! And a plane wouldnt leave the sort of hole through the pentagon that was created! All very spooky!

and a life jacket for when it rains with how bad some of the puddles have been over the summer! how many of the "workers" doing high street arent actually doing anything when you pass!

Rangers fan - http://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/scotsol/homepage/news/3784446/Arm-rip-horror-of-boozed-up-Rangers-fan.html Im surprised he got away with nipping off for a fag as theres usually a conductor that steps on to the platform when the train stops!

Going by the rumour mill of Facebook it was a junkie that was stabbed/killed. Was it not only last month there was an attempted murder with a knife near Edinburgh Road Tesco?

Do saints still give out free tickets to the schools? Family to me would be Ormand Stand, adult and child ticket for £15.

They should give it a go. Im a student, still live in Perth as cant afford to move to scumdee. Student life style is shit if your parents aint funding the partying/living costs in another city! As for the job front for us drains on society, very very hard - but you cant blame people not wanting students as going by some the people i know at uni, they are beyond useless at even managing to get out of bed to make class yet live on the campus! But like others have said, if you cant afford to go to the football then too bad. Its a "luxury" even though it may not seem like it at the time!!

As has been said its the only club you can really go to in Perth if you want to keep drinking in the town late. But it shuts before 1:30am Wednesday & Sundays then usuall 2:30 or 3 at weekends i think. Dundee is a cracking night out, huge wide range of bars/clubs and a casino along with plenty of late night carry outs for a munch!
