  1. Interesting. Sad that One Up is closing down, but I hope the shop does get occupied by another business or used as the City of Culture HQ rather then sitting empty for years!
  2. Very sad news - great shop with great people!
  3. Provided nobody from the Evening Express or the council is on the judging panel, we should be safe!
  4. Saw these on the Evening Express and STV web sites: http://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/Article.aspx/3075207 http://news.stv.tv/north/209035-buskers-could-be-forced-to-enter-x-factor-style-auditions-in-aberdeen/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Love how the Evening Express have "TALENTED" in the caption for the picture of the bagpipe player! Do you think Aberdeen buskers should face X Factor style auditions before they are allowed to perform?
  5. When it comes to Christmas presents, you can't go wrong with chocolate, and lots of it!
  6. I'm disappointed... I seem to be the only one in Aberdeen who has not seen any snow these past two days!
  7. Just do a search for recruitment agencies in Aberdeen on Google, and then go round them all with your CV and register with them. Never contact recruitment agencies by e-mail as most of them just ignore you, instead phone them every week and ask them if they currently have any jobs.
  8. According to his YouTube page, he is "a scottish raper" He even has his own record label... http://triplemproduction.yolasite.com/
  9. Last year, I kept getting phone calls from a company called XL Communications offering me a better mobile phone service. No matter how many times I told them that I did'nt want to hear from them again, they kept phoning me. It got to the point that when they phoned the final time, I actually shouted at the poor guy at the other end. I never heard from them again.
  10. I've always liked the Herbie films... except the one with Lindsay Lohan in it!
  11. I would love to see the guy's CV or application for his next job now. It would be funny reading his reason for leaving his previous job: injured myself so I could have the day off!
  12. When I first saw that picture, I actually thought she/he was a man. However, after all the fuss, it'll probably turn out that he/she is a woman after all. You have to feel sorry for him/her though... imagine years from now, what will she/he tell his/her grandchildren? "Well, kids, I was an athlete back in the day. I was the one they thought used to be a man"
  13. Common sense and Aberdeen City Council are two things you rarely hear in the same sentance. My family live in a council flat. In a few years, Aberdeen City Council plan on demolishing all the buildings in my area (including the one I live in). However, earlier in the year, the council decided to put new bathrooms and kitchens in all the flats! ?(
  14. Watched the Matrix Reloaded last night since it was on TV. First time I'd ever seen it (I watched the first Matrix film on Monday last week). The second film is good, but not as good as the first one, and it got slightly confusing towards the end. I'm hoping they show the third film next week.
  15. I watched it last night as well... the scary thing is how the addicts seem to have poor dental hygene. It was almost as disturbing as the one he did a few years ago on racism.
  16. My favourite cover version is the Rolf Harris version of Bohemian Rhapsody. It is so good because it is so very wrong!
  17. The scariest film I've seen has to be Halloween (the original - not the countless sequels or the remake). No matter how many times I watch, it always scares me.
  18. I have lots of random stuff that I don't have the heart to throw away... even though I probably should! For example, I have a key to a cupboard that I helped to destroy.
  19. I remember I once had a dream where I went out without wearing clothes, and I was walking down Union Street, and despite the fact I was naked, nobody noticed. It was quite scary, and strange at the same time.
  20. Does anyone know of any good shops that sell cheap food in Aberdeen? The only one I can think of is Stillies, which is near Mount Street, which is notorious for selling stuff past its sell by date. I also know about cheap supermarkets such as Lidls and Aldi, but does anyone know of any other shops in Aberdeen that sells cheap food?
  21. Are you running Windows Vista on your laptop? If you are, there are some tips on the following web page on changing the recording settings in Audacity... Windows Vista OS - Audacity Wiki It might be worth trying the steps that it suggests to see if any of them work for you?
  22. There's the statue guy who can sometimes be seen outside the St Nicholas Centre. Another guy who can be seen outside the St Nicholas Centre sometimes is the guy who sings country music.
