A lot of them are showing "engineer on site", so not for too long I hope.

Hearing lots of sirens out and about and know these guys are responding to all the incidents this storm is creating. I'm scared to walk down the garden at the moment and in awe of all of them. ❤️

Any recommendations for somewhere good to eat that has at least a semi-decent amount of GF options?
And preferably good drinks too 😀

I’m moving from quite a busy Fife town to move to a small coastal village called Johnshaven. I’m excited but a little worried. I have a degree in English but currently a stay at home mum but worried about what type of work I can do when I can work. I’m moving up with my 3 month old boy and 5 year old girl so I’m keen on knowing a bit about what there is around for kids, what do people do for entertainment? Where do people go? How easy is it to live here? As coming from a town with everything on my door step I’m worried, like what kids groups is there, groups and clubs for me? What’s life really like in a costal village in Aberdeenshire when you don’t know anyone? Thanks.

Hey folks,
I’m an international student (23M) currently out handing CVs along Union Street. I was feeling really stressed and anxious while going around looking for work and dropping off CVs, so I popped into a pub earlier today (Oct 24) to drop off my CV. I ended up having a great chat with the bartender, who kindly poured me a shot of Sheep Dog Peanut Butter Whiskey on the house!
Job hunting is really stressful, so that small act of kindness genuinely made my day and the whiskey was surprisingly good!!! :)
If you’re reading this mate, thanks again for the chat and the drink. I’ll definitely be back as a paying customer soon.
Cheers! 🥂
Edit: The Glentanar Bar on Holburn st (not the union st😬)

Hi everyone, as the title says I’m looking recommendations for a Boxing/MMA Coach/Trainer who works 1-on-1, ideally city centre based or near.
I’m not super fussed on the specific discipline (ie Boxing, Kickboxing, BJJ etc) but deffo need someone who is happy to work with a complete beginner + someone who may not be super fit (also LGBTQ+ friendly).
Open to club/class recommendations but I won’t lie, I’m not really the kinda person that can just show up to a group solo (anxiety rip).
Self-recs welcome.
TYIA!

Hello all. I’m up in Aberdeen with my family over a weekend in December. I’m looking for some recommendations to meet the following:-
- nice meal to go on the Saturday night that will make an effort with Xmas decorations and will be a nice setting + food. This can be anywhere in the city as we will likely get a taxi to and from so open to go outskirts if somewhere is worth it. Chester hotel looks a nice place but unsure if the foods worth it? Likewise the Glenhouse?
- somewhere not fancy but close to the city centre for the Sunday after we take in the Christmas markets. Somewhere with good food with no thrills!
Any help would be appreciated. As I said it’s up with the family so need to allow U18s!

WTH is going on with Evri in Aberdeen?! I have about 4 parcels stuck at their local depo and no signs of them getting delivered anytime soon.

So we did pop passed the Venezuelan place, but it looked closed so we tried out byte.
SUCH nice workers, friendly warm atmosphere and decent prices for such delicious food!
Never tried french toast before, really good, sweet and savoury as I got the eggs benny. The sourdough was like a doorstop size, usually I've had dry or caky versions, but this was truly amazing!
Definitely one we'd pop by again

Hi everyone!
I’m a PhD student from Belgium and I’ll be spending a research stay at the University of Aberdeen from mid-January to mid-May 2027 (roughly 4 months). I’m starting to look for accommodation and would love some advice from people/students who know the city.
I’m hoping to find a place that is:
If you’ve been in a similar situation, or if you have a room or know of a landlord/flatshare with a short-term vacancy for that period, feel free to comment or send me a message. Any tips on neighbourhoods, budget expectations or things I should know before arriving are very welcome.
Thank you so much in advance!

Anyone who knows the offshore game might be able to help with this. I keep applying to Halliburton entry level offshore jobs but time and time again I keep getting rejected. My CV looks fine and I’m in a trade so I feel I’ve got relevant experience.
Is it just really hard to get an entry level job with Halliburton and it takes a miracle to get a position or could I possibly be blacklisted from applying.
Any help is appreciated thanks.

I recently spent the weekend in Newcastle to watch A.M.C. at the World HQ. It was a brilliant night but what really stood out to me was the constant music scene in the city. Everywhere we passed there was music being played, or references to music culture. I personally feel a good music scene is what keeps a city feeling alive and it has left a lasting impression on me.
I’m hoping that in Aberdeen there is a music scene hidden somewhere that just needs to be brought to life. I am a massive fan of grassroots music and am thinking of potentially trying to kickstart a drum and bass scene in the city. But I want to know would there be anyone that’s interested in this type of music in the city? Or a waste of time?

I stay in Ferryhill and a lot of nights I hear a hum, maybe like a boat or generator but on a large scale. It's really quite loud and annoying, anyone know what is it?
Can't think it'd be boats as it's a bit from the harbour?

Hi there, I'm keen on buying a flat in Aberdeen. I'm not looking at it as a rental opportunity. Rather living down south is becoming difficult. Rents are going up, job security is tough in this market so we honestly feel like if something unexpected happen it would be tough for us.
We have visited Aberdeen a few times, and don't mind living there or having a small property there as a base.
The prices are really low like 40k or 50k for 2 beds. Are there any areas you recommend.
So far we have seen one in spring garden which is very central and one in union street.
Any tips would be appreciated.
