Fraserburgh holds the UK record for the highest gust of wind at a low-level (ie non-mountain) site: 123 knots on 13 Feb 1989. (Source: Met Office) 86.132.137.170 02:06, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
There is absolutely no place in this article for a huge section on drugs. It is unfounded that the town is worse than other towns of the same size for drugs, and the links provided link to speculation. Please stop vandalising this page. Nessymonster ( talk) 08:13, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
For those who deny that Fraserburgh is any worse, here are statistics Fraserburgh to the rest of the Grampian area (see page 48, last paragraph) - [1] 86.157.167.173 ( talk) 18:16, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
--- I was under the impression that the 'drug problem' was just a rumer te media made to bash the broch. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.174.38.77 ( talk) 23:56, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
--- Further Information
I note that no mention made in the article of Fraserburgh in World War 2. When it was known locally (or so I was told) as 'Hellfire corner'. As it was close to Norway, and easily reached by German planes. Another thing missed is the use made of Fraserburgh by Marconni, the Radio pioneer. I also disagree with the part that says 'subtitles used so people could understand the Fishermen'. As I remember the programme subtitles were only used when the Fishermen were talking in the Engine room, of the boats. Or when they were talking and the voice was indistinct. Generally there were no sub titles used, nor any reason for them. Cetainly I had no trouble understanding the men, and I come from Southern England! Bettybutt ( talk) 03:21, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
Naming Terminology "The Broch" is not the term for Fraserburgh in Scots but merely the local name, that local legend suggests that it comes from a local dslike of the founder of the town, Sir Alexander Fraserbugh. To suggest that it is actually called the Broch, would be like suggesting that Chicago's actual name in American is the "Windy City." Thus I'm changing the title from Scots to local name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.168.127.190 ( talk) 18:48, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
