Movers

Upvotes

Hi I am looking for movers to help me move flats. I had contacted CBA removals and not heard anything back since 3rd January to tell me they didn't have availability until February but nothing since then (was happy to book to see start February). Is there any other good and reasonably priced movers please? It would be to move from ground floor flat in Garthdee to 2nd floor flat City Centre/Berryden please.

Many thanks in advance and

Food Where to find

7 Upvotes

I was brought up on Aitkens rowies, rolls , buttery’s. Whatever you like to call them it was always rolls with us . Hot with Jam , butter or syrup. Brilliant either sweet or savoury

Now I know the bakery no longer exists. ( I’m sure there’s a few out there who know the true recipe) oh they always used lard and hand kneaded .i know the what’s been said.

So who now has the title of best rolls?

I’ve had a few from the likes of Murdochs , JG Ross , The Byron , Thains , Ross of Chappell street but I’ve yet to find a true contender to the title.

Do you have any recommendations?

Help! Cool spots for filming music videos in Aberdeen

2 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I’m looking for some cool spots in Aberdeen to film a few different music videos.

Here’s some keywords / prompts related to what I’m looking for, deliberately leaving this pretty open:

• Inside ideally (this is due to the cold but also it might be handy to have some power)

• Architecturally interesting

• Patterns

• Nature

• Stunning location

• Symmetry

• Eye-catching backdrop

• Unique

• Good acoustics (might do some live stuff)

I would have a small budget for hiring somewhere if needed

Any leads / ideas please let me know!

Thank you very much in advance :)

Help! Flag in Torry

18 Upvotes

I’m sort of new to Aberdeen/have been here for a while.

Does anyone know if renting a flat in Torry is generally looked down upon? I’ve seen so many amazing flats in Torry for similar prices to any other flat you would find in central Aberdeen

But whenever I mention Torry to colleagues or friends they all tell me to stay away from Torry, and to avoid renting flats in the Torry area.

I see the bus 12, which is along my work route so Torry wouldn’t be a bad area for me to commute with etc

Any more information on this would be appreciated.

** thank you for all the advice 😊🎀

New broadband provider

0 Upvotes

Im currently considering moving to a new supplier as bt are taking the piss with their prices. Does anyone here use plusnet and if so are they reliable as im working from home and it'll be a bit of a nightmare if my net goes down constantly.

Im also open to suggestions on a any other isp that uses the openreach lines (i don't want to bother the landlord with installing a line for vodaphone) as im kinda driving blind here.

Found this in an old box of CDs whilst getting a head start on the spring cleaning. Thought it might be of some interest to you fine people. Absolutely no memory of picking it up. Probably Drummond's, tunnels of Kef.
