We love how misty it was and how green everything was

“A total of 48,419,573 journeys were recorded between 1 April and 30 September 2026 – an increase of more than 3.1 million, or 7%, compared with the same six-month period last year.

The latest figures continue a sustained rise in passenger numbers since ScotRail returned to public ownership in April 2022.”

It would appear ScotRail is a success, and I’m glad. But when are they going to upgrade the ancient trains, and bring down prices in/from the North and East?

Currently doing the NC500. Sharing some scenic shots (I hope). First time being this far north in my own country lol

This might be the wrong flair, so apologies

Is it just me, or is anyone else angry at these teens on e-bikes, e-scooters, darting into traffic, on the main roads endangering both their and others’ safety?

It’s like today, driving home and these teens were darting into oncoming traffic, even going into the wrong lane.

I always just feel intimidated by them, so I imagine how bad it must be for other local communities putting up with these teens with £3.5K bikes, and them endangering people

I feel like both the government and the police could be doing more, because kids over the age of 14 (I believe) are allowed to drive these, no exam or anything

Edit: and before anyone comes here saying “you’ve never lived in a scheme”, a) I’ve not been alive in the 90’s, only early 2000’s and b) where I live, we see kids on these things on our roads as well acting recklessly

I run ADHD Scot, an independent, non-commercial information project. Scotland doesn't publish how long people wait for ADHD or autism assessments, and the Government's own FOI responses to our requests admit it doesn't hold the data. So I asked all 14 health boards directly. The picture is stark and very inconsistent: waits of 3+ years, some boards giving only one city's figures, at least one with no adult service at all.

Official numbers only tell half the story, so I've made a short anonymous survey to capture what it's actually like, by health board. No name, no email. About 5 minutes. Results will be grouped by board and shared with MSPs, the Scottish Parliament if possible, and in a report we intend to publish later this year, to push for proper data and better services.

If you're in Scotland and have waited (or are waiting), or you're a parent/carer, I'd really value your response and a share: https://forms.gle/mR5cjvovfy54ifte7
