I'm going to Aberdeen for a week on Wednesday- soooo excited! I went to uni there briefly over 26 years ago and haven't felt able to go back before because life got in the way, but now going.

It's so special for me.

I mainly wanted to see bars, cafes, a few churches, beach, the castles at Stonehaven and Dunn(? sorry am on phone so can't look it up at the same time) castle. Try and find where Byron lived.

Didn't go to many places when I was there as I didn't eat well and probably was anaemic- had no energy.

Think it'd be fun to do stuff in my mid 40s that I didn't do at 19/20 (all I did was chain smoke and shag a few randoms.)

I don't think I'll want for stuff to do but just wanted to say yay!!1 basically but welcome anyone's suggestions for stuff to do or particular bars/cafes/restaurants you can recommend.

My mum invited herself lol but that's OK, she walks more than me.

If in Banchory then Banchory Lodge (for the river setting) or Mamma Mia (for the food) are the bay bets!

Buchanan's in Banchory used to be lush. It's nice to hear Aberdeen getting some love, I think it's a fab city.
