Well, Toni, as you say, "Yes and no" ... <VBG> Aberdeen and Royal Deeside are not in England; they are in Scotland. And the Gulf Stream warms the west side of Scotland (there are tropical gardens at Inverewe) but the east coast (Aberdeen and Royal Deeside) are chilled by winds direct from the Russian Steppes.
