I am an Aberdonian & can assure you that the place is far from being a sh*thole.
When the sun shines (more often than you would think) the old granite buildings, that are the reason Aberdeen is known as the Granite City, sparkle. We have a beautiful golden sandy beach, several good parks, museums, theatre, cinemas, great clubs & pubs & a good selection of shops. However, Aberdeen's greatest asset is its people. Since the advent of the oil industry Aberdeen has become quite cosmopolitan in its inhabitants & has welcomed people of all nationalities here.
For those of you that have no idea where we are, we are on the North East coast of Scotland. |

Aberdeen is a very fine city, but it's not a major tourist destination, probably because it's so far away from other large centres of population (even Edinburgh is two and a half hours away by train or road). |

Hard to penetrate Granite city.
If the new grand Golf course gets the go ahead,
Aberdeen will be in news all over the world like
St. Andrews, now. |

I was living in John street in the sixties with a little chap called Bugsy Bain my ex wife worked in the chipper downstairs. I still have a son and daughter there and two grandchildren that I know of. My daughter stopped writing to me ten or eleven years ago, but I would just love to hear from her again. |

Nah, it's not a s**thole, it's actually pretty nice.
If you're looking for a s**thole, try Dundee.
