Definately a very good choice, the school my kids went to in ABZ, well alot of the students are being beat up because they wear a uniform, and alot of the boys and girls take the bus, so they are an easy and obvious target

Bloody shame

lmao= laughing my arse off

I paid my way through college working as a chef in Simpsons and then Barts in Triple Kirks before it went back to being triple kirks so i guess I'm guilty of adding to the conversionm of churches to bars/restaurants. But no-one went to them as churches it seems.
Someone also told me that Ma Camerons and the Tappit Hen are also gone.
One place i did make sure i went back to was the Shack O' Briggie (spelling?), the old bridge across the Dee in Cults, just to makje sure it was still there. Lots of snogs under there after a session at the Cults Hotel!
And what has happened to the beachfront? Where's Codona's?

Triple Kirks used to be good & you could get a good feed too. Went there in the summer & was appalled - tables & chairs replaced by 2 pool tables & we figured by the look of the clientele we could have purchased any illegal substance of our choice that night. Didn't linger. Tappit Hen is long gone but Ma's is still exactly the same. Heard recently that it's been sold though, so another crap makeover coming soon no doubt.

Codonas is still there. Thankfully so is the Inversneckie. Personally I haven't done much at the beach since the days of everyone at school having their 18 birthday parties at Jamies. Come on, who else is old enough to remember that old chestnut?!
