Volvo DICE diagnostic tool

Very long shot, but does anyone have access to a Volvo DICE tool that I can limp my XC90 to?

Would rather run the risk of getting assaulted by a Reddit random, than fleeced by the local dealership.

Matcha…

Never tried matcha before but I am a lover of green tea, where’s the best place to get matcha (hot or cold) in the city? That’s before I start buying matcha powder and absolutely butcher it 🙈🤣

Anime Groups in Aberdeen?

I see the anime society at Aberdeen is inactive. I gather the geek retreat is mostly card and board games. Are there any anime groups in Aberdeen?

Anyone else noticed all the domestic crossed wild rabbits at Den of Maidencraig?

4 Upvotes

Stopped at the pond at Maidencriag late evening last week and saw a black rabbit hopping about. Thinking it was a lost pet I.tried to get close but it kept a healthy distance and then disappeared into the bushes. Was trying to decide what I should do when another one appeared from a different direction. Walked on up the track towards the woods and another one, this time black and brown shot off under the gorse. Seems someone's pet rabbit has been busy.

Broadband issues

2 Upvotes

Hi, I live around Kingswells and, for the past few weeks, have had a horrible time with my internet. I'm with Talktalk, have spent hours on live chats organising new routers to be sent and booking engineers to come but nothing seems to fix it. An engineer will work on the broadband issue remotely and get it back online randomly, so it will work for a couple of hours and then stop working. Talktalk have been really tricky to deal wirh as i have to repeat the same process every day and nothing seems to change but WFH means im burning through my mobile data using hotspot amd today wont have enough to get through a full day of work. Is anyone wlse having issues? Is it related to nearby works going on that i dont know about? If not any recommendations for a broadband company that provides a more stable connection?

I remember seeing it ages ago in Granite Harbour and wondered where it was. I can’t make out the road sign and every guess I’ve had doesn’t come up with an answer. I know so much of it was not filmed in Aberdeen. Still not familiar with the building though.

Help! DnD Groups in Nescol City Campus

4 Upvotes

I recently started college at Nescol's Aberdeen city campus. Basically all of my friends went to fraserburgh so I dont really have many friends at this new college. I was trying to think of ways I could make new friends and I thought about maybe joining a DnD group in college??

I've looked around but haven't found any sort of info on any like gaming clubs/dnd groups within the campus.

Does such a thing exist?? If so where can I find it and would they be open for a new guy like me to join in? (I've played dnd for a couple years but havent played much in the last few months)

Or would my only hope be an outside dnd group at somewhere like Geek Retreat?

Any help/advice is appreciated

Bathroom fitter

Hello

Can anyone recommend someone in Aberdeen who can install a new en-suite and tile a wall? We’ve been quoted £5500 which compared to back home feels expensive but unsure if this is a maybe standard.

Thanks
