Frenchman not made welcome in Edinburgh...

There's one quote in particular in this news article that I love.  I wonder what the French is for "jobby catchers"? 

https://www.edinburghlive.co.uk/news/edinburgh-news/french-tourist-turned-away-edinburgh-26167104

 "We have a policy of no tracksuits/cottons/jobby catchers in the bar in the evenings. Many bars in Edinburgh have the same policy."

Common sense policy imo.

Eating out in pubs in Scotland is generally shit, in my opinion.

I got a good scotch pie in Diggers the other month

I've been known to have  a pie too, and that's fine - a wee snack. 

Their other offerings however, are shit, and the same everywhere you go, on the whole.

Cambridge Bar does nice burgers.  Pretty pricey though!
