    One of the first videos I have seen on Aberdeenshire made by an outsider without bias, and very well done. I am from NE Scotland but lived all over, as far as Inverness, I lived close to Corse Castle ruin in a place called Cushnie for about 15 years, that castle is unfortunately becoming a bit too unstable and will likely have a big collapse in a decade or so. If you carry on from Corse Castle towards Tarland there is a great view over the Cromar valley towards the mountains of Lochnaggar, Mount Keen, Morvern and Clachnaben, great area for walkers and mountain bikers. Craigiever Castle is also an attractive little keep close to Corse Castle ruin. If you like outdoor pursuits like kayaking, gliding, shooting, fishing, hill walking, mountain biking, climbing and even wind surfing (plenty wind on the North Sea but cold) Aberdeenshire caters for all of it. Great thing is we have plenty of space and it is not crowded

    I'm somewhat disappointed that you didn't show Footdee (Fittie) the first social housing in Aberdeen dating back into the 1600's. It orriginally had two squares but they built a middle row to meet housing needs. Footdee or Fittie to the locals is opposite the Torry Battery and approching from the other direction just past the Cadona's Funfair and heading to the harbour. Another worthy place is Provast Skene's house dating back to the 1600's (I may be wrong on the date) but Aberdeen council when demolishing St. Nicolas House in 2014 built another monstrosity covering the Provast's house from view. It's still there you just need to cross to the other side of Marshall Collage and go round the back of the glass monstrosity and you will find access to the house. The Duke of Cumberland stayed here for 6 weeks on his march north to the battle of Culloden Moor on 16th April 1746. Other places of note are The Art Gallery on Schoolhill. There are other places in the city facing to the harbour is Provast Ross's house which has all sorts of displays and information about The Oil Industry.

Although I left the area in 1973 I'm still a "Buchan Loon" - my attachment to North East Scotland is very strong. I had a feeling Slains might be your fav spot. My own children are in their 30s now and I took them to Slains from an early age. During our infrequent visits now from our homes in Midlothian, a visit to Slains is always on our list.

    Born in Kintore. 70 years ago. In Kingsfield Road. Down past the amazing Church. The cemetery at the top on the way to Inverurie. School. Cycled most days when I worked at Hays in Inverurie. Golf course. The Shakin' Briggie. Chippie. 3 hotels. Torryburn, Crown and Kintore Arms. The old fountain in the square in front of an amazing building. Scott the Bakers. Cafe in school road. The football team. And especially the cricket team when KintoreCC were top dogs in the Aberdeenshire Grades League. Moved to Inverurie for a short while. Then to Aberdeen. Graduated from Aberdeen University and moved to London where I now live with my wife of 50 years and a huge family to boot. Miss the old place. Life was simple in the 50s and 60s. Thank you for the memories. Tears come easily.

From about Edinburgh to Aberdeen you have the North Sea all the way on your right. So when you book tickets make sure you sit on the right going north and left travelling south. Born in Aberdeen. Oh I loved the video but be careful it is a SEA not an OCEAN which you describe near the end. It is the North Sea. Great video. Oceans are ATLANTIC, PACIFIC. INDIAN. ARCTIC, SOUTHERN OCEAN. I suppose you could add one more; BILLY OCEAN. 😜😜😜Some argue you can break up the Atlantic and Pacific into North and South each. Geography lesson over. I used to have a nickname.
