Tucked away in south-west Scotland, this historic burgh has witnessed some of the wildest, darkest, and most eccentric moments in Scottish history:

🔥 The grim 1659 riverbank trial that marked one of the darkest days in Scotland's witch trial history.

🏰 A 13th-century bridge built by one of medieval Scotland’s wealthiest women that still stands tall today.

🚲 And the brilliant local blacksmith who invented the pedal bicycle... only to cause history’s very first cycling traffic incident! 👮‍♂️

Had a nice weekend in Aberdeen with my better half, went to the jail at Peterhead and a good cheeky wee night out in the city, met some lovely friendly aberdonians.

Popped into Cheers on the Saturday night where we were thoroughly entertained by a very funny drag queen DJ 😂. Only in Aberdeen would you pay to get into prison before being entertained by a man dressed as a disco ball in a gay bar full of heterosexual couples 😜😂 loved it 🤗👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
