Is it likely that a PETROL Audi may reflect a different time?

What he said.
Probably best to avoid Anderson drive and go down northern road.

Aye, I think I'd go ...

  • A96
  • Forrit Brae
  • Newhills - Kingswells
  • Straight across A944 at the roundabout
  • All the way over Countesswells to Cults
  • In the North Deeside
  • Right on Westerton Road
  • In Inchgarth Road / Garthdee Road
  • Holburn Street
  • Right on the wee road at Rutherston to Riverside Drive
  • Cross the river at Duthie Park
  • West Tullos Road
  • Abbotswell Road
  • Wellington Road
  • Right on the roundabout on to Craig Place / Menzies Road
... but I'm sure others will have differing views.

Cheers,

Eric smile

Top secret government business at the laboratory in Victoria Road........ Not really, I'm just going to visit the marine lab. I'm expected to go once a month. I just need to time it with a night out. smile

There are major roadworks at Kingswells at the moment with different lanes closed every day. Someone at work tried coming in from Westhill via that roundabout last week (when it should have been quiet due to school holidays) and it took them 30 minutes to reach and cleaer the roundabout. I'd be tempted to go through Dyce and head towards town on Stoneywood Road, before turning off at Mugiemoss Road and going over the Parkway (flowing fine at the moment during rush hour), then in the Ellon Road for a bit, before turning off to go round by the beach (Esplanade) up Beach Boulevard, down Virginia Street, Market Street and across Victoria Bridge.
