BC Posted May 21, 2012 Author Share Posted May 21, 2012 That's right Gregor....Andrew Curry from Cullen who was married recently and Ian Wood the video man from Dyce was at his wedding and gave him a DVD of it yesterday. Andrew did say to me he was married recently and the suit he wore to his wedding he wore the following week to his work....it did seem an odd comment to make ...so I did not say much since I was kinda of shocked...anyway he later said to me him and the his best man and the two usher's sported brand new JCB boiler suits for the day...even Damian..mr JCB bloke him self did not do that however I recall a JCB was used as the wedding vehicle...please remind me Damian and Hazel since that was a long time ago and I'm sure if it was a GD topic it will have been lost when the transfer to the new system took place....maybe not but I don't do searching ;D Oh and Andrew said it was a wedding with a difference in that it was held in a newly constructed workshop on their farm....Ian later told me it was a marquee tent within the newly constructed workshop...as I said to Andrew and Ian it was his day and he could do as he wished and why bother with the matching kilts etc when he and his bride to be were happy he could wear what he wanted and was most comfortable in....oh I saw a photo on the DVD and Andrew's bride was actually dressed in the traditional brides white dress ;D A farming enterprise in Cullen which must be a worth a visit and I'm sure the pubs and hotel's in the area will have Cullen Skink on the menu's ...any of you FTF members fancy a farm visit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 Grant Thompson from Newmachar was there both days taking photos and he sent me a couple yesterday. In the first one I'm simply cutting all the missed bits that were not cut or rather flattened by the rain last week. Jim from Monymusk was back with Ford and New Holland baler. He was complaining the reels were not picking the wet grass up to to well. We really need to recruit someone with a hay turner for next year....maybe a job for Gregor assuming he passes his test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8feetmower Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Must be good shearbolts in that baler to handle that wet grass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC Posted May 22, 2012 Author Share Posted May 22, 2012 Yes I did say that to Jim before he started...but he left the baler and went back home for 2 round straw bales to take back on his Ivor William's trailer to bale up small square bales...sorry no photo's...it's a show getting so so big that I can't even play and travel around it...but then again if I did not stop to speak to all the folk I know I would cover it all...but you can't be rude to people you know .....mind you he can be selective and give a wave and keep on the go if you don't really know that person really well ;D I hope you enjoyed the show photos....I did not hear many Orcadian accents this year as I have in the past..but as one ages ones hearing tends to diminish ;D Roll on next's years show since it is the biggest and best working weekend in Scotland and is only within 10 or so miles from where I stay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8feetmower Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Really enjoyed looking at the photos.Difficult to get off the island at this time of year as it's busy so looking at photos lets me get a taste of shows like this.Tried to get to your model show this year but couldn't get it to work out. Next year hopefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
