Aberdeen is tycoon town. If you're not a tycoon yet, you will be soon, and then you'll get to live on Rubislaw Den North - Aberdeen's Millionaire's Row! The drivers of silver grey German luxury marques and Range Rovers display their entrepreneurial mastery of our town as they decide what's best and how to go about things in the best way. And yes, that includes road-use protocols as well as city centre redevelopments!
In this video, (left for us in the dead-letter box behind at the top of the TK Maxx stair tower on the top-deck of the multi-storey car-park in Union Square) our nefarious double-agent "Codename JannieJumbo" is treated to a masterclass in road-use protocols, firstly by the driver of Aberdeen Car Mercedes-Bens SL 350 Convertible Auto Tiptronic (ooooh!) reg. YJ07NHX and secondly by the driver of Aberdeen Car Range Rover TDV8 Auto Vogue (oooooooh!) reg TAW5E with it's 3.6 litre engine.
The message about correct road use in this part of Aberdeen is quite clear. No pedal-cycles here, if you please! You'll make the place look all raggedy - like DSS-land or student-ville or something. If you can't afford a lovely car - you don't belong here. Just go away.
And, indeed yes, "Codename JannieJumbo" shows himself up at the end of the video with the sort of "effing and jeffing" most unbecoming of this most gentile of our West-end streets. What a terrible oik he is. We bet he wasn't even wearing a cycle-helmet.
