Hog Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 It's so messed up that the council want to give Union Street a big glass roof when the big stores i.e E+M, BM's are closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scootray Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 At least when all the shops are gone it won't be a total cunt to walk down Union Street anymore. Slow cunts, umbrella cunts, mobile cunts, bus stop cunts. The whole pavement to myself. Loner cunt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Cool Thinker Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 I think it's a metaphor.It sounds believeable since they want to build a glass pyramand at city square. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chilli Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 When city garden is built one of the suggestions was to put a glass pyramand on top of it.there is a problem with that theory, in that for numerous reasons the city garden will never happen....

Frosty Jack Posted June 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 Where did you hear this ?Roofing over Union Street is just one of the idiotic ideas contained in a new document produced by our exalted leaders, the hopeless shitwits.But that's a discussion for this thread -http://www.aberdeen-music.com/forums/politics-current-affairs/62050-union-terrace-gardens-105.html#post905623 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hog Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 It would be an amazing (yet pointless) piece of engineering if they pulled it off.If they pull it off... I give up...The roads in Aberdeen are fucked. The infrastructure on Union St is shite. We show off about being "the oil capital of Europe" but the city is slowly descending into Dundee part 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike17nl Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 Hi,Does anyone have details of the auction at Bruce Millers?The kind of info I'm looking for is:-a) which date / time? (I heard Thursday 30th June, is this correct - and what time would it start?)b) what will be for sale? I'd be interested in instruments (guitar, mandolin, ukelele, saxophone), music (piano) books.c) any timetable on when which lots (what type of items) will be sold for example if I wanted to buy a specific intrument would there be an indication of what time roughly those instruments would be up for auction - I wouldn't ant to hang around from 9 am only to find that xyz are on sale from 5-6pm. Anyone involved in organising the aution? I'd be grateful for your advice!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russtyeh Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Evening Express - Article - Aberdeen shop closes doors after 111 yearsAppears it is on the 30th.I would hope it is at night, wouldn't really make sense having it during the day when most folks are at work.

paime Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 I don't live in the city any more and rarely go anywhere near it. All i can complain about is the buses. GOD DAMN BUSES!This fucks me off as well. I'm aware that they are needed and public transport is a good thing etc but I really hope they make them quieter at least. I don't think Aberdeen has the infrastructure to re-route them around Union Street (via Market street etc). Pedestrianising part of Union Street, probably Bridge Street to Market Street might work but then it would also damn the remaining parts of Union Street to an eternity of vacant shops and minky pubs.
