BC Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 Three cheers to the 3 Beeton brothers and their families ...and I do hope Robert's girl Rachel can play "The hens march to the midden at Lanark in September"....she did say she would try....a rather nice and talented young girl who was playing on her fiddle during the course of the show. Gretna is such a friendly family run show and long may it continue to support the charity they are raising funds for. As I said Kenny and Shirley I have promised I will go down to the Fife Tractor Club ploughing match next year assuming G&M are at Perth that weekend and the match is on the same weekend And again I must thank you on behalf of Andy Ingram and Brian Gray for putting up posters for the Aberdeen show ( 8 weeks away ) and also taking flyers at the pay desk and allowing me to pass them around the tables. Kenny, Shirley and John need to get a drink or" twa" from the North East Farm Model Farm and Construction "team" on the Saturday night at the Treetops me thinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 ........ the cakes be safer delivered by me rather than Brian Well I suspect Brian would slap a scoop of ice cream on top and stick a chocolate flake in them as well Paul......even more calories.
