Twilightsue Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Hi! I will be living in Scotland from the end of November where I will be working as an Aupair. Now I saw that there`s a few Fans here from Scotland and I thought it would be very nice to get to know some people, since I don`t know anyone there yet :-) Twilight`s not such a big issue in Switzerland as it is in the uk or the United State I guess, so I`m all excited to watch the movie up there in Great Britain. ;-) Sorry if it`s a bit off topic not really related to the Convention but it would be great to know some scottish Fans!

Twilightsue Posted October 28, 2008 Author Share Posted October 28, 2008 Hi to you all! I`ll be living in Carnoustie and coming to Dundee for evening english classes Starbuck, I didn`t know there`s also a village called Culloden I only know the stories about the Battlefield.... Hope I`ll also be able to visit the capital and do some sightseeing :-) It`s not that far away I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twilightsue Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 Hey! Started to snow here last night as well. But it`s already melting away now.... :/ Hmm, the more I`m looking around here the more I`m tempted to try and come to the con.... I talked to someone who`s been to Scotland before yesterday and she told me to go shopping in Edinburgh :- ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starbuck73 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Edinburgh is great for shopping, as is Glasgow... believe me, you will have no problems maxing out your credit card in either city! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abi1000 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) oh yup! edinburgh and glasgow are awesome for shopping, im going xmas shoping in glasgow on saturday! Edited October 30, 2008 by abi1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EranoOwho Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Yeah Edinburgh is really good for shopping, though i do like Glasgow better because all the shops are closer together. Oh and they have a primark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twilightsue Posted November 1, 2008 Author Share Posted November 1, 2008 Abi hope you have Fun with xmas shopping ;-) Went shopping with my Mum yesterday, enjoying the time we have since I will be leaving in about three weeks.... hmm wondering what primark is, is it like a chain store? Abi I just read that you haven`t booked a room yet and I`m really about thinking ( and calculating ) to come to the con. I will have to check some things over the weekend but if I make it to the con maybe we could share a room? I`m 19 / 20 by the way and think I don`t snore ;-) I checked scotrail for trains and found out the journey would actually cost more than a Silver ticket....? Think I`m gonna have a railcard since I`m a student so maybe it wouldn`t be that much. Anita and you`re coming by train so I thought maybe you two know a bit more about train journeys in GB.

Starbuck73 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 I live halfway between Inverness and Aberdeen :). Ooooh, whereabouts... Forres would be my first guess... or maybe Nairn...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abi1000 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 hey sue, i dont see it being a problem, maybe we could have a proper chat over it by email or messenger? my email addie is stantonabi@hotmail.com, feel free to add me and we can have a chat. primark is a chain that sells clothes very cheaply, they dont always last long but at £6 who cares?? just buy more! with a railcard its looking at about £60 to get from dundee to northampton, and thatll take up most of a day, however we could always get the train together make it easier. Now i just have to work out if a) i can afford con ticket, plus train plus hotel if i can skip the last day of my placement to get there hmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
