Great place , particularly the Grassmarket area,

Edinburgh and York are the only two cities I would move to.

Agreed!

They rank just under Htown

I like Edinburgh but York is great, helped by the fact its only an hour and a half to get there.

I have this sudden urge to move to Edinburgh or York now:)

love the place worked loads of times up there

 

amazing for a night out

Second best city in the UK after Belfast. Lived right in the centre of Edinburgh for eight months and moved away on getting married, the bitch. One of those cities where you can't get bored, no matter what you do in your spare time. Though it obviously is not as good as Leigh.

Anyone ever stopped in the links hotel?

 

Superb

Great jazz bar

 

Called The Jazz Bar

 

 

From memory

Thank god for that..when you moving?

I'll go against the tide here and say I've been there countless times and I've not warmed to the place. Much prefer Glasgow

Had my first proper weekend in Glasgow last week. Stayed in the Millenium on St George's Sq. Had tea in Browns on the Friday which was superb.

 

Hit the bars around the Xmas markets and argyl street on Saturday whilst the wives went shopping. Smashing pubs.

Much prefer The Rat Pack myself on Shandwick Place, home of the haggis bomb.

As soon as I find a house big enough for me and your family to move into

Aye. Walked into one pub on Sauchiehall Street last time I was there and there was a full on brass band (think Brassed Off colliery type band) sat round the tables supping pints and knocking out tunes every now and again. Surreal

Going to Edinburgh in a couple of weeks.

 

Can anyone recommend any dog friendly pubs/restaurants or days out? Dogs not allowed in the castle unfortunately.

Swanny's yer man.

Henri Lloyd and myself are running the Edinburgh Marathon at the end of May. Nearer the time I will put a link on to a sponsorship page so all you good people can chuck a couple of quid at us.

We both did the Chester Half Marathon a couple of years ago. The stewards kept trying to take him over to the start of the kids mini run.

I'll come and cheer you on,I'm nice like that. (You have a DM!)

The Brass Monkey opposite the Festival Theatre is a great pub if you like real ale and good rock/indie music!

 

Our friends live in Stockbridge, so we spend a lot of time round there. Its a 5 minute bus ride from the town centre and has lots of great pubs and on a Sunday has a great food market, then you can clear your head with a stroll along Leith Walk. Really lovely - would recommend as a way to see a bit more of the city.
