Moving back towards civilisation (well Dyce near Aberdeen anyway)! Sealed the deal on our own house today and at the same time sealed the deal on this place.

Really chuffed - the building to the left is an extended garage that's been converted into a home office. That will be my man cave.  :rolleye:

Plenty of room to extend behind the house, to make it the place we want, in the location we want. More of a long term project really - hopefully worth it!

All being well, moving in 4 weeks time.

:congrats: :congrats: nice houses them in dyce esp if you get one that has not been owned by an old couple with 80s styling.
Yours obviouslly isnt going by the extension, looks good.
We considered dyce / westhill / banchory,,,, only thing that put us off dyce and westhill was the traffic going to and from town - it is a bloody nightmare esp westhill.
Ended up in Banchory so we will be neighbours - ish.
Bet your purchase is the most expensive thing to go on this thread to date  :congrats: :congrats:

Dyce is perfect for us as the wee man already goes to nursery there and this is 5 min along the road. I can walk to the station and be at work in 10 minutes instead of sitting in the traffic at the airport roundabout for 30-40 min each day. Wife is working in Westhill just now but she'll be going agains the main flow of traffic both ways - though she will get stuck in a bit at Westhill, but nothing like what we've got now.

Even better will be my fuel costs - will be chopping at least 150 miles of my average each week I'd say. Possibly more.

Got those in mine. They give a nice white light although the beam isn't as good as the 'slightly yellow' Osram Nightbreakers I used to have.

Oh, I love these ebay specials. The way they scatter their illegal output everywhere, indiscriminately blinding oncoming drivers is mightily impressive...

You will love it mate. I've had mine 2 months now and easily the best investment I've made in the Golf to date. Just hope you have more success with the reliability of the unit! I'm on my 3rd one now!!
