Aye well, you can certainly pick the places.
You wont be able to understand a word they speak in those you mentioned.

Seriously, loads of work in Aberdeen being advertised recently.

Merry Christmas mate.

Don't get me started…….too late………..

And they are all going to be electricians or plumbers, and they'll work from 6am to 9pm without a break SEVEN days a week, for a bowl of stewed cabbage. And they won't care about our regulations regarding notification of certain works or the need to be conversant with BS7671 and the requirements for certification on EVERY job.
So competition will be hot.

Are you sure you want to come here?
Can I go over to INZID, please?>
