SO. TASTY.

Anyone seen Sammy the seagull lately?

COME ON YOU REDS!

AuroraWatch UK alert: YES WE KNOW
7. You'll have taken a road trip to Stoney for some Bay fish and chips.
Super delicious and a good view.

What diet?
9. You've felt the burn after running up and down the sand dunes at Balmedie
Fun for the first five minutes but ow.
10. You'll know that no matter what age you are, Codonas is AMAZING.

11. If you gotta ride on the bus, you'll have the exact change ready.

15. You've been lost in the Hazelhead maze... for AT LEAST 5 minutes.
How awesome was this place as a child?
16. You curse the AWPR roadworks but you know its gonna be good in the end
Why can't roads just be airlifted and planted in, within a day or 2??
17. You'll have been stuck at the Haudagain at rush hour at least a few times (UGH).
