    Glasgow/Edinburgh is nowt ! Did it, on and off for years.

    It's all about preparation. Keep a case in the boot during the winter incase you get stuck. Only ever happened to me once I think.

    Rate cuts are for people who accept rate cuts.

    Central Scotland banking opportunities are currently plentiful thanks. At least two biggish clients hiring....and I'm just starting an extension. No doom here.
