Seems pretty harsh based on the post and the only thing I can think as to why they banned me was because I identified myself as Scottish.

What do you think?

Born and raised in Ireland, doing a healthcare assistant course next year (fingers crossed), but i definitely want to move countries and work I do not want to stay here, I suppose im just wondering would Scotland be a good place to go and work with this kind of qualification? I was considering England but family I have there says the pay is not great for that kind of work, Australia and Canada are options too but id like something a bit closer to home🥲

Hi all!! I am a Canadian looking for a practicum placement opportunity in Scotland! My school allows international placements ☺️

My education is in Child and Youth Care, and I am looking for a placement in services including: mental health, substance use, family services, and homeless/housing services! Ideally in Edinburgh ~

If anyone knows any good places for this I would like to know of any good organizations that would support a practicum/intern student.

Thank you in advance! Happy days!

well done Duncan Farms first promo I've seen for the Commonwealth Games starting next week it was in Sainsbury's Stirling

I then saw athletes from Botswana

Just asking because I (20, M) was dumped by ex (F, 19) over text in March after being together for eight months. Now I'm up at like half past midnight unable to process my feelings lol.

I really liked her and she (I'm pretty sure) felt the same with me but ultimately we had different goals in life (plus a whole host of other issues).

My (divorced since I was 4, but recently remarried) just texted me back when I told him, so no phone call from him. When I met him in person? My dad laughed when I told him, said it wasn't that serious because he didn't meet her, nor was I experienced enough to make the hour drive so it would have ended at some point and then said it was fine because there were plenty more fish in the sea and I feel like he could have handled that a whole lot better.

He's just saying now that it's stupid to put anyone on a pedestal, not to define my worth by relationships, and that no woman is worth crying over.

My mum's advice was that she never liked the girl, she was glad we had broken up, it was never going to last, I'm to stop feeling sorry for myself and focus on my uni. Now I'm off uni I'm to date as many girls as I can. She doesn't think it's wrong to date multiple women at the same time because of my age, and simultaneously thinks I'm going out too much. I also feel she could have handled that better.

Do you consider this advice to be bad? What other bad break up advice have you heard?

We all agree it's time to take them down, non?

-All British teams are now out of the world cup. Scotland was knocked out ages ago.

-One of the "raise the colours" founders (who started the trend of attaching flags to lampposts for political reasons) is on trial for CP. Another has been charged with murder. Not a good look.

-A lot of them are completely wrecked. Your $2 piece of material doesn't hold up well against the stormy weather.

For anyone still wondering yes it is illegal (to attach an article to a lamp post or other public furniture without permission)- Roads Scotland Act 1984 or Highways Act 1980 for Eng/Wales.

Also remember if the Council have to take them down it costs tax payer money.

I (M23) will be starting my MPH at University of Aberdeen in Sept. My main concern is: would this open up employability within the NHS or public health sector (research, policy, health promotion, epidemiology, etc.)?

I’ve read that Public Health careers do not always need HCPC registration, but employers may look for specific skills (stats, epidemiology, data analysis, global health experience, etc.).

Would an MPH be enough to land entry-level roles in the NHS/public sector, or would I need further training/certifications afterwards?

I have a bachelor's degree in a medical field as well.

(I would require visa sponsorship for the job)

Hey there! I'm (m,27) from India. I'm a veterinarian. I've got good grades. And now I'm doing my masters in a well reputed university in India. It's been my ambition to pursue PhD, and maybe get a job later abroad. Best if it's in Scotland. But the problem is, alumnis of our college are mostly from financially humble backgrounds. So, almost none of them has any experience regarding going abroad whatsoever. And that caused me a huge gap in knowledge of the whole process. So, it feels like I'm clueless about the whole thing. So if anyone helps with what to do at first, what to look for, where to look at, whom to talk to, it'll be of great help. Thank you.

Bought it during my trip in Scotland,April
The Guide took us to the Whisky Factory
Taste purely goooood

Scottish-Egyptian here, like genuinely mixed-race (Scottish mum, Egyptian dad), bilingual and dual-national and have been deeply connected with both countries my whole life. Currently living in Scotland but I've lived in Egypt for long periods as well.

As far as I know, we're a very rare breed. I think I've only ever met one or two more Scottish-Egyptians in the wild but we might be more common than people think and I'd like to connect with you.

You may have never heard of Ahmed Ramzy and Mervat Amin, two actors from Egypt's golden age of cinema. Ahmed Ramzy was born to an Egyptian dad and Scottish mum, who was named Helen MacKay. You may already about Omar Sharif, who made it big in Western cinema (Lawrence of Arabia, Doctor Zhivago), whom Ahmed Ramzy went to school with in Alexandria's prestigious Victoria College.

Mervat Amin also had an Egyptian dad and Scottish mum although I couldn't any details about her family beyond that.

A wee bit of interesting lore for all of you and if you're Scottish-Egyptian yourself, give us a shout!

I realised today that on five occasions I have been sitting watching the telly and seen people I know suddenly appear. I don't mean actors, just ordinary people with ordinary jobs. I suppose if you know the fantastic Martin Compston, you'll see him quite a lot.

Am I an outlier? It's always been on STV or Alba, and I suppose that we have the same number of broadcast hours as England but with a much lower population, but it still seems a lot.

In case you are wondering, I have seen:

1. My fab old neighbour from Aberdeen. Still miss him.

2. An old boyfriend. Idiot. Don't miss him at all.

3. A woman who used to work for the same company as me and who lives in the village down the road.

4. A friend in the same profession but working for a different company.

5. My Gaelic teacher.

It seems a lot. Is it a lot?

coo.

Just curious for people's thoughts on this, say we get to a point where Reform are polling at 25%, and Labour are polling at 25% (or any other parties, that's not really my point), do you think any politician that could be running then would promise an independence referendum to the devolved nations to secure extra swing votes from the devolved nations?

Or nah, is that way too risky if them to get only 5 more years in power?
