FUTURE SHORTS ABERDEEN
Hey folks I have been thinking about setting up a regular movie night in Aberdeen and decided to contact the Future Shortsnetwork to see if they fancied extending their nights to Aberdeen. Well they'd already beaten me to it but had yet to find a rep willing to help organise future events. Well its going to be me and I'm going to be trying to organise as many fun nights in as many different venues as I can.
