yoda Posted May 18, 2015 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Well naw. I should probably read the full thread title. Alternatively, Mr Bairn brings along his own Semmi with him. The transition would be much easier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Bairn Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 c**t think he's too good for Scotland eh. Fine, go then. Just looking like I might be able to cash in on a signing on fee with a firm down there, nothing official yet. Shitting myself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Leeds, Aberdeen and Dundee. I knew a couple of people in Aberdeen. It's a lot easier than you'd imagine, helps if you drink! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah I'd basically be looking for folk to go on the piss with at weekends etc. The good news is it will probably be late summer 2016, surely a load of graduates will be moving to London at the same time so it can't be too hard to form a kind of social group. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banana Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) Anyone ever done this? Nope, noone has ever done such an outrageous thing. Yes - new cities, new countries. Puts hairs on your chest. Get stuck in and you'll be fine. Edited May 19, 2015 by banana 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergeant Wilson Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 The thing about London is, everyone will look down on you because you are Scottish. They won't understand your accent. The tube is dead complicated and you'll never work out how to use it. If you can find a pub it's £20.00 a pint. If you do decide to go, avoid Chelsea supporters and pearly kings, if you can. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyh Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I also moved down to England when I was 16 to work in my aunties hotel labouring. Although I obviously knew my auntie I didn't know a sole. Went to the pubs on my first Saturday there and got punched twice just for being Scottish but got a ride of a lassie who turned out to be the village bike! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bully Wee Villa Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 (edited) No, pay for everything with Scottish bank notes. They love the Scots there that's why they named the police place Scotland Yard. You're also expected to haggle when you buy a pint, part of the Cockerney culture. Edited May 19, 2015 by Bully Wee Villa 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I might be moving to London, and I'm fucking shitting myself. London's just a series of connected villages. The quaint locals tend to stick to themselves leaving the decent pubs full of normal folk from the civilised world outside the M25. You'll have a ball. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zidane's child Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I moved to London by myself when I was 20. Just bite the bullet and do it, you will meet people and you can always join a sports club or student unions where you may also get your hole! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 I might be moving to London, and I'm fucking shitting myself. If you've not already clocked it, there was a London thread a wee while back - as you'd expect, it's full of helpful and not-so-helpful advice.
