In Scotland, one city has one area that isn't deprived.

Scotland is an urban wasteland from edge to edge.
One shopping street is its sole redeeming feature.

The countryside is beautiful. You're just better off avoiding the urban areas as they're fucking miserable.
Of course, you'd know, since you love Scottish cities so much that you live in York.

But it is indeed possible to love other cities while living in a different one. Plus, it's a nice place to live. Fuck all crime, expensive enough houses that the riff raff live well away from me and it's tiny. Culturally backward though and the tourists drive me mental.

The sad thing is, I actually want to like Scotland, for my own lame nostalgic misty-eyed reasons. Unfortunately, the cold reality is that it's utterly dismal.

And after a month or so the lack of any kind of modern culture will drive you mental.
You'd hate it, I promise.

It'll be why all you lot are down here, won't it. I don't see you moving back up to Scotland, do I? Why? Because it's a hole.
Basically every city looks like Paisley.

I'd forgotten how deeply shit the Grassmarket is for drinking.

It was basically a travel ad with poor singing.
The only thing was missing was the "Visit Scotland" logo.

That kind of sentimental tartan shit makes me sick in my mouth. The Proclaimers are fucking shit.

Boarded at Gordon's, so spent a lot of time in the West End. Also spent a lot of time up Cults/ Bieldside way, and Garthdee.

It was alright. Cults is nice from what I've seen, my mate had his wedding up there.
( , Mon 21 Oct 2013, 12:21, Reply)

Blimey. I thought it just had the art college, a dry ski slope and an endemic heroin problem.
Cults is extremely nice. Loads of my school friends lived round that way, it's hoachin with oil money.

Cults is great.I had my first ever pint in the Cults Hotel. Two and ten pence.

I often have a pint in the Bieldside Inn.
Used to take acid at Allan Park during the summer.

He borrowed 750k from his dad to buy it.

I see he's still begging the council to accept that 50 million.
( , Mon 21 Oct 2013, 13:00, Reply)

He's only offering it if the council borrow 80 million and do exactly what he wants. On public land worth millions. Prime green city centre land. He's been after it for years.

I had to play darts in the Neptune not so long ago. It's getting added to my mental list of pubs not to go to.

The 524 is a classic as well.
