Aberdeen, two months in...
 

1) Apart from the drowning the first week of Jan, I've scrapped the car windscreen every single morning.
2) The people are mega friendly, even if I do struggle to understand some of them.
3) The food up here, even from supermarkets is outstanding.
4) Deer on the front garden. 100's of seals on the beach. It's like a zoo.
5) The roads 20 miles north of Aberdeen, where we are, are devoid of traffic.
6) Aberdeen is an amazing night out.... from what I can remember.

So why don't more people live here? Coz its bl00dy freezing!

Well it is close to the North Pole, what do you expect ;) :D

Put another layer on, it'll soon be summer :sunny:

I went hitching round Scotland a good few years ago in my often misspent youth and we camped just outside Aberdeen.Cold?I had to buy a new jacket.

It's a f'ing sh*t hole if you are actually in Aberdeen. I cannot WAIT to get out of here. Should never have come

Glad you seem to be enjoying it Bri. Have you retired up there or gone for the filthy lucre?

Best update your location tag.... "Location: Just south of M'bro, on the northeast riviera." :D

Re: Aberdeen, two months in...
 

Told the boss in July I would be retiring at Christmas. He pestered me from then till Nov with different offers, and one that tickled my fancy. I head up our UK oil and gas division.
