I'm not Scottish, but I lived in Aberdeen for a year, dividing my time between skipping lectures in the uni and helping out with making the burgers and meat pies at Pittodrie on matchdays. It's definitely the my favourite place I've ever lived in.

Also I work at a esso garage & a guy I know came in the other day said he had been working up there doing up flats or something & said that its 'all junkies & old folk' which i thought was quite funny. I asked if there was anybody 'inbetween' and he said all the people inbetween are all junkies as well lol. So am I the only Scot on here then? No wonder people dont understand me half the time lol. |

As for junkies and old folk, that's probably the truth Where I used to live there was just down the road from a pretty nasty estate. This guy I was talking to (as he was trying to sell me a sportsbag-full of pirate DVDs) showed me all these scars on his neck and arms from where some kids had attacked him with hammers. All that said most of it, particularly the older parts around the river Don and the town centre, are absolutely beautiful places. The Pearl Lounge there is probably the best club I've ever drunk myself blind in too |

I don't doubt it I moved back down around this time last year, after the uni officials decided they'd put up with enough of my going AWOL crap (and rightly so). Still, I've been invited up for a booze-up just like old times in July, which'll be awesome if I can actually go.
