It's fucking grey.
It's also fucking wealthy.

The jury's out on "shit" although, granted, that depends on your opinion of class A's, booze and high-end hookers as there's fuck all else to do there.

I used to spend a lot of time in the Holburn Street area.
Never been to that Indian though.

It's really good. I had the best aubergine curry there I have ever had and I chose that dish quite often.

What took you that far north? Didn't think there were that many companies in your field up there. It's pretty much all oil and gas.

Trialled a couple of new restaurant formats there.

Union Street is fucked now
Try Bieldside, Cults and Milltimber. Big money areas.

It's unlikely I will be heading there any time soon.

highest cost of living outside of London and the south east
Property prices have doubled in the last ten years. More millionaires per capita than anywhere else in the UK. Terrible poverty, horrific levels of heroin and crack use.

Like I said, a one-dimensional microcosm of London.

although, oddly unlike the rest of the UK
the smack and crack use doesn't actually directly correlate with the poverty, as a lot of it is the offshore boys.

average salary for offshore workers is 73k

boring work + good disposable income = drug use.
As seen in many ex-pat communities around the globe.

I see about 20% of my grads go offshore.
Most of them say the tests were, well, while you were offshore.

Most rig boys don't actually shoot up on the rigs.
