That's four folk I've clocked on XP-erience from or around Aberdeen [Scotland]!!

Do you know where in Aberdeen your parents lived before leaving??

I'm from Leicester, but have been living in Aberdeen for the last 10 years. Leicester in England is where all Crisps are made, that and Stilton Cheese, Pork Pies and an awful lot of Knitware. We have a useless football team, a reasonable cricket team and a brilliant Rugby team - Go Tigers!!

Im in Elkins Park PA .. a suburb of philly

Man I never heard of Elkins Park - of course I haven't lived in PA since 1965. Which side of Philly is that?

We used to play a Lower Moreland and Jenkintown (in football) - which I thought was down Philly way????

Most of my "Philly" experience has been flying in and out of the airport when I came home to visit my parents and brother while I was in the Air Force.

Good to know there are folks form close to home sharing the forum!

Hehe...never actually went skiing on Buck Hill, but as a kid going to Grandma's every weekend (in Waterville, close to Faribault)we would drive by Buck Hill, and I would stare in fascination at the snow-machine that seemed to always be on making snow--I especially liked going by at night and watching the skiers come down. Back then it looked like a mountain, I was by there about 6 years ago, and laughed at how tiny it looks to me as an adult. Only been skiing once in my life, went to Lutsen, which I believe is in or near Duluth. We always had so much darn snow, my parents bought us mini-skis and we "skied" down the hill in the backyard.

G'day Mubbers. My dad was born in Kintore. Mum was born in the Parish of Rynie but they lived in Kildrummy once they were married.

They lived in Australia for 50 years and never went back to Scotland at all. Neither have I.

Fit like Smokie!

These days Kintore aint much to shout about - it's all gone a bit commuter belt

However Kildrummy is a great place, I was fishing there last month and the countryside is beautiful. This is a pic' of my motor just outside the fishing hut. The river behind is the River Don on the Kildrummy Estate fishing beat. That day I caught a bag load of Trout - ACE I put 'em all back though coz they woz tiny!!

and without a horrid car to spoil the view:
