Aberdeen: A twist in the tale


Up bright and early on what seems to have been a wild goose chase.
Fellow Crawler Andrew tipped us off that Aberdeen had a Wimpy in the city centre “at least when I first came to Aberdeen”. It was near John Lewis, apparently, so that’s where we headed.
But to no avail – despite our best efforts the Wimpy sign was nowhere to be seen.
So we trudged on, with not-so-heavy hearts (we’re relying on the Wimpy website for this trek, and it would have been quite a shock to find an unexpected restaurant).
Next was Sunset Boulevard….still in the Granite City, for another Wimpy inside an amusement arcade.
It was closed.
But, at least we were able to get inside for the obligatory photo, and we’d eaten there on a previous occasion SO IT’S OK.
By the way, neither Wimpy, real nor imaginary, appears in the Aberdeen phone book. The city’s best-kept secret?

"Fellow crawler Andrew"?? Tell me it's not true.
