zidane's child Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 40 minutes ago, ICTChris said: Appreciate this isn't local to many P&Bers and isn't *technically* a local council rather an elected Mayor but - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-42626014 Valuable use of public resources IMO. Bizarrely, this is local to me and I was going to post this myself. I'd argue there's bigger things to worry about in the city rather than a transfer of the team you support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see what happens now, There will be a by election. The Tories will win. Carry on as usual. Progress for SNP would be, as in Perth City South, winning most 1st preferences. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossbill Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-north-east-orkney-shetland-43518679 I remember a long time ago arriving in Munich, fresh off the train and trying to get my bearings. A taxi driver asked if he could help, and then when he heard my accent (and terrible attempt at German) where I was from. Turns out he had been part of a group that had come to Aberdeen for the Youth Festival, and had nothing but nice things to say about it. He gave us a free lift to the best hostel in the city. Guess we don't need that anymore 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to come off the rigs where you would be picked up sometimes in a bloody 7 series, their rates were far higher than I was used too and then they started to plead poverty when the oil price slumped. Probably shouldn't have spunked it on a high end BMW lease when a skoda would have sufficed. Got charged £6.70 for a taxi (during snow of 2010/11 winter admittedly, but not the worst of it) fae the train station to Schoolhill - for those not versed in distances of Aberdeen, imagine St Enoch Centre to slightly past Cowcaddens subway. Needed a taxi as ma case had a hole in it, before anyone asks. Edited March 23, 2018 by Sunrise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
