Colin's got a course in Aberdeen on Friday.
He's booked into a hotel on Thurs. night and is keen for me to go up with him (I've never been to Aberdeen before)
I'd love to go with him, problem is he'll be away to the course ALL DAY Friday and if I go I'll be left on my ownsome all day I'm guessing we'd need to vacate our room around 100ish Friday morning. I don't fancy trailing the shops on my own all day Can anyone from around that area give me some ideas of things to do (where I wont look an utter pleb on my own) to put in the day?

Hmm ..... I can see me staying at home It would have been nice to spend the Thursday night in Aberdeen, maybe go out for a meal or to a pub for a few beers. Plus it would mean company for Colin when he's driving there and back.

might want to go keep an eye on him there's 4 or 5 lap dancing clubs in the one area!
not sure what there is to do during the day but its supposed to be a good night out, few of my mates have been.

Come and visit me
Edit: Seriously though, the shops in Aberdeen are pretty good, and what woman doesn't like shopping? Even if it is on their own?!

check to see if you can have an extended check out; most of the time if you flutter your eye lashes, they'll do it free or for a nominal charge

LOL at you lot!! Shoppings my fav pastime, just dont fancy it on my own in a strange place. I'm also stressing about going for something to eat on my own !
The hotels got a Spa and swimming pool. Might check to see if I'm allowed to use it after checkout time

Hi Fee
The Thistle at Altens ..... I think thats what you call the place ? If there's nothing else to do, I'll prob just go to the shops. I just think it'll be a long day on my own ......

I will drive up and accompany you for the day. We will shop together and I'll drive home. Do not ask for sex or offer any kind of payment, as refusal often offends.

Is Aberdeen THAT bad?
It seems fine to me. Pretty sure there's a days worth of shopping after a lie in & eating out somewhere for lunch
