    Told me they weren't getting any more strips in (Presumably this season) as it was bespoke made or something. 

    Good luck. 

    They really should use the term "limited run" rather than bespoke. A football top does not fit the definition of 'bespoke'. The trend is to use that word nowadays to imply exclusivity or artisan crafts and that doesn't fit here!

    The castle is surrounded with scaffolding just now and is due to open next year.  I am not sure how the end product will look and exactly what is going to be in it but have been told it's a fixed budget to do the work so we will have to wait and see what they come up with.

    They seem to have done a good job with the town house so fingers crossed the removal of scaffolding will show some good work.

  4. Agree with the road and the UHI comments but for me the biggest improvement was opening up the castle viewpoint. When you can get a view like this, its amazing to see how beautiful the locale is. 

    I really hope that with the courts gone they take the opportunity to double-down on the improvements made to the Town House to create an area that is appealing to tourists and locals alike with the Castle, Town House, Museum and perhaps some green space if they ever tear down Upper Bridge St. It would be amazing.

  6. I did not know Eric, but ever since TM4TJ brought him and IBM on to help with the stats and other background tasks, it has been great. His input and effort getting us up to date, was immense even though he was unwell. It speaks volumes about someone's character when they offer to do this type of unsung work and are happy to stay in the background and just offer assistance without any fanfare. I am also absolutely blown away that in the midst of his illness, he was still thinking of doing updates from the hospice. 

    My sincere gratitude goes to Eric for all he did, and my condolences go out to his family and friends in their sad loss. 🙏

    When fans (people in general) are so dissatisfied, then they lose objectivity on everything, and you won't get a true view of where the priority issues are because EVERYTHING will be a problem.

    This I agree with... a run of 10 straight wins and the responses would be less on the negative side than you will likely get right now...

  8. Obviously didn't fill in the form as I only attend one or two games every year or maybe every other year on trips across the pond, but I did read through the questions and agree they seem reasonable enough.

    As someone has said, you could ask only 2 questions, but then you would only get two answers. For this questionnaire, it seems a bit more in depth and may highlight areas of concern that were previously disregarded or thought as not an annoyance for many fans. That will allow the trust to focus on those areas with the club (assuming a dialogue is open and in place). Whether the club listen or not is a different subject and question, but the survey results would hopefully give a substantial set of data to build things on if they do. (that and a few wins of course!)

    Some of us recall going down to Kilmarnock midweek for a cup game and the match called off after about 20 minutes because of a frozen pitch.  

    28 minutes, Dougie McDonald the whistler on the night. A really long day out but the craic in the pub was good 🙂 

  11. Thats why its a needle in a haystack ... The site itself does not generate any errors and there are no errors in the logs. We have no control over the ads you get served and they are different for everyone (more or less) depending on your location, interests, browsing habits and such like. The extensions you have installed are another potential source of issues and of course there are multiple browser options people can choose from.

    All I can check/influence is the data and configuration on the server, and this comes back as normal and up to date in all categories. I could of course turn off the ads... but no income from ads = no site next time we have to renew software, domains, or hosting! It's a balancing act 😉

  12. Now that people have less fears over covid, and travel seems to be returning (somewhat) to normal, I am going to resurrect this thread.  I'll post any good deals I see from Inverness or other UK airports. I have been using this site for a few years now and it's a great site to include in any travel searches and to find deals. Sometimes the flights it finds can be a bit less than perfect - online travel companies, long layovers, or circuitous routes - but often there are multiple suppliers including the airlines themselves and these are legitimately good. 

    We have used it a couple of times to find good fares to the UK as well as Toronto to Los Angeles and San Francisco, but our best travel success ever was through this site with an "error fare" trip pre-pandemic for all three of us from New York to Seychelles for under US$1000 when the normal cost of a ticket is around $1500 per person!!! 

    Inverness is also a great airport to use as a search because it is frequently cheaper than flying out of one of the big airports. There are tax breaks for smaller regional airports that mean savings can be significant compared to booking direct from Edinburgh, Glasgow, and certainly Heathrow and Gatwick... even when there is a stopover in that same airport!

    Anyhoo - here are a couple of deals I noticed last week:
