One of the reasons that put us off moving there last year...

Knew people that moved out and then back in to town as they felt 'isolated'.

Nice place and all that, but a bit less convenient at a time when we prefer being walking distance from town.

yea, the more i think about it though it doesn't really matter. we can always meet folk in town and geta bus back and we'll have a spare room so folk could stay over.

the main sticking point is going to be if we actually sell our own place in time. cripes!

it's all very grown up and scary.

Hah, if you don't fill that spare room with enough crap so people can't move in it I'll be amazed.

Yeah, god forbid you have to mingle with the working classes. That's not what you move to Deeside for!

I guess it depends what you're used to, I grew up out that way so it's never been a problem for me.

You'd be surprised how many evil little fuckers there are around there though, with nothing better to do than get pished, trash cars, set fire to postboxes etc etc...

Peterculter isn't proper Deeside anyway. It may be by the Dee, but it's not a real Deeside town.

That's because it's a village.
