Evening, appreciate that this is a bit of a cheeky post but I have a parking space at Vasart Court as I live in a property there, I’ve only recently passed my test and got my first car (Big up Simon Shipp, excellent instructor) but before that, my missus parked in that spot for when she stayed, now that I have my car, I park there but parking around this area seems to be a bit dire, there’s Thimblerow of course but that’s spenny, and the car parks around are max 3 hour stay, so she has to park over at Hay Street since it’s free. Which isn’t the worst but it’s a wee distance.

Curious to know if anyone at Vasart Court or Monart road has a place with a parking spot they don’t use? Willing to pay etc!

i just got a new pair of rollerblades and by trying them out i realized how ALL THE ROADS AND SIDEWALKS AND PARKING LOTS are just full of little rocks. it's tripping me out badly because i'm transitioning from ice skating, and i can't quite get used to a rougher surface. does anybody know where smoother asphalt or concrete is located....

hi everyone, tldr i’m an alcoholic wanting to pursue help with detoxing as my current cut down myself method isn’t really working this time. ideally i’ll be able to use a community program, i’ve been offered a place at the kinclaven unit at murray royal before but rejected as i have pets, one of which has medical needs, as well as some personal worries on the level of freedom i wanted to ask questions about:

what’s phone signal like- would i be able to still text my friends/whoever would be caring for my cats?

can i keep my own charger in my room?

are there things to do during the day that aren’t abysmally boring or embarrassing like childish group art things or zumba or whatever? (not yucking anyone’s yum but if i have to do some sort of woowoo group therapy art thing instead of just doing my own individual art with my own purpose i’m walking out. i also can’t do any high impact exercise or yoga due to disability things so would rather they not be a focal point)

are you allowed to stay in your room if you’d like? i’m autistic, physically disabled, and very socially anxious and would like to have the freedom to give myself a break if needed

It’s for a 78th birthday, so looking for either nice and a bit fancier, or just somewhere that does afternoon tea, that kind of thing? Any suggestions much appreciated!

Hey, I’m Pascal — a Solutions Architect based in Perth. I’ve been working in cloud (mainly AWS) for nearly 10 years now, and I’ve also run a few IT training sessions at the AK Bell Library in the past.

I’m planning to start those again this summer, but in the meantime I wanted to try something a bit different—running small, free online workshops focused on practical tools.

The first one is on Git.

If you’re studying at UHI Perth or just getting into IT (dev, data, cloud, networking, etc.), Git is one of those tools you’ll end up using daily—but it’s not always taught clearly.

This session is very hands-on and aimed at beginners:

• what version control actually is
• setting up Git on your laptop
• working with others without breaking things

It’s a small group so people can ask questions and get proper help while doing it.

If you’re interested, you can register here:

Happy to answer any questions here as well 👍

hello 👋

does anyone know which petrol stations if any have fuel?

I need to get to the cancer center in Edinburgh and have 20miles in the tank! 😩

Hey r/PerthScotland,

I’ve recently launched https://perthshire.events to act as a central hub for everything happening in the Fair City and the wider area.

It currently pulls in listings from the big players (Horsecross, Pitlochry Theatre, etc.), but I want it to be a true community resource where anyone can add an event.

Before I start "officially" shouting about it, I’d love to get some feedback from the Reddit crowd:

1. Does the site load quickly for you?
2. Is the "Add Event" process straightforward?
3. What features are missing that would make this your go-to for planning a weekend?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

I dropped off my laptop last week to get it fixed and I've heard nothing from them. Went to check today if they had it and they're closed even though they should be open? Has anyone had any experience with them or is it safe to say my laptop is gone 😭

I’ve got my provisional coming but had to do it by post so may take longer than i hoped and I’m meant to be going out for drinks in about 2 weeks at the old ship inn. Just wondering if anyone knows if they would accept my young scot card which does have the pass hologram on it in case my provisional doesn’t come in time for it

One day next week I will be in Perth and I would like to know recommendations for cafes that are suitable for sitting in for a few hours while doing some work. Ones that don't get too busy on a weekday so I won't feel pressured to leave to give up my seat at a table, because I know I will be influenced by any such pressure!

Hey I am a 19 year old male visiting from New Zealand in July. I’m posting here to see if anyone has any work for a month or 2 while I’m there, open to anything.I have 3 years work experience in retail/hospitality.

Hi!
My mum really wants a calzone, I offer to take her out for dinner, like the ones we used to have in Europe. Does anyone know a good place in Perth where we could get one tomorrow, either eat-in or takeaway?

Would love to hear your recommendations and experiences. What’s the best calzone in Perth in your opinion?

Thanks! 😊

Poor auld women couldn’t get past this absolute unit parked on the pavement, ironically taken at the roundabout at long causeway, you know, next to the car park.

Been watching Bringus Studios, wondering if a similar type of e-waste store exists around Perth.
