Scottish house prices reach peak number of threads

House price threads relating to Scotland and Aberdeen have reached an all-time peak, according to a survey released today.

Analysis of 378,000 posts over the past 12 months on the moneysavingexpert Internet forum relating to Scotland and Aberdeen show that both are performing far better than any other locations on any other online forum.

Said a leading expert on house price threads: 'The Scotland / Abderdeen momentum is so clearly unstoppable that today's peak may even be exceeded very soon.'

  • Why did you choose to create another one?

    I tell you, the non Scottish contingent seem to have a facination with the area.

  • Good point :) . It's all the more ironic given that for obvious reasons I've never met anyone who would ever consider living there.

    I guess they'll never know what their missing

    I didn't actually create it. I'm simply quoting from tomorrow's Daily Express front page.

    just get the Sun and look at the BooBies as I suppose more was spent on the breast enlargement operation then buying a 3 bed in Aberdeen.

    Shomething wrong, shurely? Though then again, lots of people must think living in Aberdeen is an uplifting experience otherwise there wouldn't be so much interest in the place.

    That's a lie. The Daily Express cannot spell "Aberdeen".

    Prices in Scotland will only increase when people recognise the energy-efficiency of living in caves.

    Didn't you leave it for the other side of the world.....?
    ...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.

    I did, however my roots are still there and I will return some day.

    Many have travelled from the area and there even is a song penned about it that is very appropriate
    Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen

    When I was a child, a tiny wee child,
    My mother said to me,
    Come see the Northern lights my child,
    They're bright as they can be.

    She called them the heavenly dancers,
    Merry dancers in the sky
    I'll never forget that wonderful sight,
    They made the heavens bright.

    Chorus

    The Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen
    Seem home sweet home to me.
    The Northern Lights of Old Aberdeen
    Are what I long to see

    I've been a wand'rer all of my life
    And many's a sight I've seen
    Godspeed the day,
    When I'm on my way
    To my home in Aberdeen.

    I've wandered in many far off lands,
    Traveled many a mile
    I've missed the folk I've cherished most,
    The joy of a friendly smile
    It warms up the heart of the wand'rer,

    The clasp of a welcoming hand
    To greet me when I return,
    Home to my own native land.

    Chorus
