hiah
just wondering if anyone on here lives in or near aberdeenshire...i have always been drawn to live in scotland and since my astrological studies have begun picking up steam i have looked into relocation astrology and that area says it would be a great familly and creative,homely place to live which would be lovely!!myself and my baby Pearl live in brighton at the moment and its just quite far and expensive to get up there to have a good look and suss out the area we would like to live so i was wondering if anyone on here lives up that way and can tell more about nice areas etc!
would like to live somewhere semi-rural, peaceful,friendly..near a bus route to get to baby groups and shops etc!!
any info greatly appreciated!
love
anna

Not thinking of going far then anna!!
Seriously try and google Aberdeenshire and see what it offers on sites.
Buy some wellies, overcoats, and some midge repellant.
We,re going to Dundee in June and I'm dreading the little buggers!
Windy.

hey windy!!
i know brighton and aberdeen are practically the opposite ends of the uk!!
i have heard about those terrible biting midgies!!(i used to live in a bus and wanted to go up there travellingthen but my ex said there was no way he'd brave them!)
we did live in wales up to about a year ago so im thinking the weather cant be that different!the lack of light got to me a bit sometimes though i might invest in a light box..
have a great holiday
love

Hi Anna, Really looking forward to Dundee but it is a wedding we are going to so looking forward to that. If I remain sober (and I better had) I will try and remember what it looks like up there and put a post on. I know its not quite Aberdeenshire but hey.Tried to find a flight to Dundee but only seems to be some small outfit flies out of London City and costs the earth. Probably going by train from Kings X but takes six hours.
Good luck if you do make the move.
fyki. Windy. xx

Hi White Willow
I live in Perthshire which is near Aberdeenshire, about 50 miles from Aberdeen and 18 from Dundee.
There are so many little villages in Aberdeenshire you'd be better visiting if you could. Stonehaven is a great wee town - the picture is of Dunnottar Castle which is at Stonehaven. It also has an outside seawater swimmingpool (or it did last time we visited). Rural Scotland is a great place to bring up children however local services can be spartan so as long as you are happy living in the "seventies" you'll settle :Danywhere.

Oyne is another favourite of ours as there is an Ironage visitors attraction where they stage re-enactments, interesting forthe childrento find out about the games children played then and how they livednot to mention the sword fights and roman soldiers.
On a more bizarre note- a local "intellectual" I know reckons the north east of scotland will be like the Med come global warming and everyone will flock there as it will be too hot elsewhere - so get your skates on!
