  • Sunscreen Expiry Hack Saves Cash

    With heatwaves hitting, MoneySavingExpert’s Martin Lewis team dropped a lifesaving sunscreen tip: check the back of your bottle for a number (usually 12 or 24) that tells you how long it’s good for after opening. Avoid wasting cash on new sunscreen—your old bottle might still work. If it’s past its prime, repurpose it as body lotion. Use SPF 30+ with four-star UVA, reapply often, and pair with shade, clothes, and sunglasses. No safe tan—sunburn raises skin cancer risk. Protect your skin smartly, even on cloudy days.

  • Inverurie Pub Reopens with Free Beer

    After a rocky financial rescue and shuttered doors, the beloved Inverurie pub is back open for business—starting Saturday, June 27—with the first 100 guests getting a free beer. The revival follows a March buyout by US cannabis-beer giant Tilray Brands, which saved 11 pubs and 733 jobs but forced 38 locations—including this one—to close, costing 484 jobs. Now, with Castlegate already reopened, the Inverurie team is thrilled to toast the community once more.

  • Ex SNP Boss Sentenced for Embezzlement

    Former SNP chief Peter Murrell sentenced to over five years for embezzling £400,000 from the party, using stolen funds for luxury buys like a £124k motorhome, cars, and jewelry—while faking expense claims to hide his thefts. His guilty plea has ignited fresh scrutiny on ex-leader Nicola Sturgeon, who insists she was unaware and betrayed, though she faced no charges. The case has fueled demands for deeper investigations into the party’s financial mismanagement.

  • Asda Car Meet Turns Chaos

    Over 700 cars descended on an Asda in Aberdeen, turning what should’ve been a car meet into a full-blown chaos—with police forced to intervene. After reviewing all the footage, authorities have issued more than 100 road offense notices, including dangerous driving charges and careless driving citations. Drivers are facing prosecution, anti-social behavior charges, and some are already being visited by police. This isn’t the first time—earlier this month, arrests were made for drugs and traffic violations, with 14 cars banned, 3 seized, and nearly 60 drivers slapped with fines. Police are sending a clear message: reckless driving won’t be tolerated.

  • Microchip Your Dog Before Deadline

    Dog owners, don’t miss this deadline—failure to microchip your pup could cost you up to £500. Since 2016, all dogs over eight weeks old must be chipped and registered with the owner. If a warden scans your dog and finds no chip, you’ve got 21 days to fix it. Exceptions exist for tiny pups or those with health issues, with vet approval. But it’s not just about the chip—keep your details updated on the government database, and always ensure your dog wears a collar with your name and address. Microchipping is quick, cheap (£10–£30), and could be the lifesaver if your dog ever goes missing. Unsure if your dog’s chipped? Your vet can scan it for you.

  • Scotland's Energy Transition Window

    The north-east of Scotland stands at a pivotal moment—its oil and gas legacy could transform into a renewable energy powerhouse within five years, but only if action is taken now. With the region perfectly positioned for Europe’s offshore wind boom by 2050, its skilled workforce can pivot with minimal retraining. Yet, without urgent investment and policy alignment, critical talent could vanish before green jobs take root, jeopardizing the entire energy transition. This is a make-or-break window: seize it, or risk losing the very assets that could secure Scotland’s future as a global energy leader.

  • Lumsden Calls for End to War on Oil

    New MP Douglas Lumsden hit the ground running, declaring war on the “war on oil and gas” as he took his seat in Westminster — blasting both Labour and SNP for abandoning the North Sea sector. Having swapped his Scottish Parliament seat for Aberdeen South, he sees his win as a rallying cry for industry revival, warning of 1,000 jobs lost monthly and a city choked by economic neglect. With Labour’s Andy Burnham poised to lead, Lumsden personally urged him to “get Britain drilling again,” vowing to be a relentless voice for oil and gas workers. His message? Aberdeen’s future depends on reversing the decline — and fast.
