    Hi Gary just noticed you are from Aberdeenshire - we lived in Cuminestown then Macterry nr.Fyvie.

    Sorry mate it was just a joke. Some of the folks around that area were not very welcoming to "White Settlers". It didn't bother me but it upset the Mrs a fair bit. The conversation with locals would often turn to "the price of houses since you lot arrived" to which I would reply "and who was it selling these properties at inflated prices? English or Scottish owners?"

    Prejudice is often not fact-based, but 'justified' by supposed facts.

    Stayed here all my life and what people forget is how long these houses were for sale and home owners trapped with negative equity. All the ' white settlers' moving up was like the cavalry coming to the rescue setting people free and doing up properties

    Calm yer jets, there pal. Just a bit of banter going on here, no need for the attitude.

    Just think of us all as a decent bunch and you'll do OK on here. All comments are made in good humour.

    If you can do that, welcome in.

    Welcome Gary. Nice bike. If you can take a bit of friendly rib tickling you'll get on well here.

    I'll refrain from mentioning that my English ex and her family settled in Aberdeen way back before later coming back south to save on summer wear woolly hats and mittens. I so loved they roads up those parts.
