The obligatory snow thread. And it is heavy, and not just melting. Of course, it will probably all melt by the time the average Sinner user read this.

Sorry to be pedantic (hah) but Nadal has only been ranked number 1 for a few weeks, and before that Federer was regarded...

The pavement is the old one as well, before last years dig-up-the-whole-town for 10 months project.

Or you could head round to Kinshaldy beach (through Tentsmuir Forest) and see them a lot closer, without so much risk of quicksand and tides.

It's also a sort of unofficial nudiest beach there. You might see more than you wanted.

If you right down to the bottom of West Sands (look it up on a map) and look over towards Tentsmuir beach area, you can usually see seals. Just by careful down there though, as people sometimes get caught out by the tide coming in very quickly and have to be rescued!

In Janettas a few years ago, and there one person in the queue in front of me, who would be best described as a rather large and round man. His shirt/trousers were covered in stains and he didn't smell the best...I guess you all know the sort of person I'm on about. As he went to pay, his trousers f...

I get lots of stuff like that which gets past the University's spam filter. However, a job application which I cc'ed to myself was flagged as spam. Interesting.

I ordered a baked potato from there about a month ago, shortly after it had opened. It was rank. When I took out the container which had my potato with cheese, I noticed that the bottom of the bag was soaked. When I opened the container the potato was swimming in butter. The lady at the counter must...

Does anyone know what has happened at the Castle? I walked past there this morning and there is a notice outside the entrance saying that the Castle is closed due to vandalism.

I use Firefox on a PowerBook and there are no problems.

Quoting ARTooD2 from 10:23, 8th May 2008 Don't go to Budget for it...but then again I wouldn't go to budget for anything... [hr] King Sinner Go there for new tyres. Go to America for Jiffy Lube. I don't know why, but it always makes me smile driving past a Jiffy Lube, or a Quick Lube in the States.

They did indeed, and then installed him in the most shambolic, thrown together way imaginable. The embarrassment of their Principal was palpable

What happened that made it such an embarrassment?

50p coins always have different things on them.

I miss the big chunky 50p coins...

[hr]

I may be a pretty sad case but I don't write jokes in base 13

And the big chunky 10p and 5p coins. And the 1/2p coin....

No - thank you.

Quoting munchingfoo from 03:26, 1st Apr 2008 Well, it looks like the sinner has finally come to a close. Due to decreased page views and lack of advertising revenue the administrator of thesinner has finally decided to close the site down. :-( We've got one month of life left in us, since this mont...

The sushi bar under the Thai restaurant is amazing! I recommend the bento boxes.

Agreed. The salmon bento box is great.

Edit: Is it "disc" or "disk"? I've never been able to work that out...

Disc the English spelling. Disk is the American English spelling.

Quoting elz from 17:17, 5th Mar 2008 I am a driver who cannot stand speedbumps. However I also live on Lamond Drive and have been amazed at the number of cars which whizz down the road at a really unsafe speed, so I'm in two minds on this occasion as I know there are a lot of children about and tha...

Quoting orudge from 18:44, 4th Mar 2008 I noticed today that various holes have been dug in several roads, including Lamond Drive, the Canongate, and lots of local roads around this area of town. Combined with last weeks erection of a huge number of 20 zone signs, it seems as though St Andrews is g...
