Enough there for some bedtime viewing .... :D

Natives are generally friendly. I'm sure you'll enjoy it, if you can live with the weather. Bring your coat - it's freezing, although it can be colder still in winter ;) :D

I currently live in Aberdeen. It's quite a good town - small enough to walk around easily but big enough to have loads of pubs and restaurants.

Don't want to write a whole review of the town here, so if you want some more info PM me.

You'll enjoy it - enough said, really!
