Hopefully there won't be another referendum as it was pretty toxic up here last time, if you didn't buy into the separation idea, even for a Scot.

As much as I disagree with Brexit and it was English/Welsh votes what won it, I still think we're probably still better in the UK, also you folks would miss the gas and oil from the North Sea, even if not us 😥

I'm afraid the Greens have to much say up here and would love to shut down the oil industry but thankfully it's a reserved power for Westminster.

I also really disliked the way it stirred things up and hated the way some English people were being treated, it wasn't meant to be about that but very sadly we have a few racists here which I dislike, plenty nice English people up here 👍

Just like Brexit stirred anti European feeling in some leave voters, I was completely shocked some EU nationals I know got abuse, yet all I know work and are very useful members of society.

Turriff is really such a lovely friendly place, any form of abuse is an absolute shock.

Had a fellow last summer have a puncture, in his Aston Martin at one of my roadside fields.

I stopped with him to see if I could help, he seemed a fine chap, English from somewhere down South, he was shocked how many stopped to offer help.

I should have got a picture for the petrol heads on here, tbh I'd no idea what the car was until I read it on the front disc brake calipers 😂
