just wondering if anyone else has great memories of that day. I was in Aberdeen and the whole of union street was full of folk, drivers going up and down the street with flags,scarfs and people hanging out the windows. (lets keep this happy lets not mention how bad things are at afc now please)

    I was looking through some old photos the other day and found one of myself sitting on top of a bus shelter, near Aberdeen airport waving my scarf as the team passed on the open-top bus.

    If you can't eat it or play with it ....... just pee on it and walk away.

    I remeber going for a drink at the Hayloft, then walking up union street when a bloke put me over his shoulders to rejoin the celebrations. Union street was heaving with people cars singing and horns blowing. Pity its unlikely to happen again.

    I remember it well. I was listening on Northsound to see how far they had gone before picking up my son and his pal from school and heading down to Pittodrie.
