BC Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 looks like a nice varied show farming ,lorrys, rallying ,and more besides, nice to seethe different farming operations around the country what are the JDs harvesting .have not seen a catto lorry for a few years nicr pics look forward to seeing more It was a very varied show as you say Graham. The JD's are harvested "swede neeps" aka turnips. I can't remember when T M Catto ceased to trade but it must be 20 to 25 years ago now since I have last seen any of their fleet...I must ask around.

BC Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 great pictures of the show folks,wish we could of managed to go,hope it's on next year.looked like a really great day out. Just a short run up the "Back Highland" road for you and Avril from Perth. There are certainly plans for it to go ahead next year with the possibility of extending the farm and construction side with more tables in the foyer and in addition maybe a craft fair in the canteen area for the ladies and girlies,. This show and venue has a lot of potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 Myself , Andy and Brian were invited around to see Callum and dad Marks collection and what a collection they have between them. Many thanks for the hospitality, the coffees, cakes and sandwich provided by Callum's mum Debbie and sister Catriona were lovely...as I said best brown bread I have tasted in a long time. Chas Christie aka skitternox Chas was there and we exchanged photographs. Here are some of Chas's ones. Don't know who the poser is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted March 18, 2013 Author Share Posted March 18, 2013 Not my photo's of the Scanny's Graham .....I did a deal with "skitter box Chas" and we exchanged photos from the Saturday show. I have a pal from school days who now runs a civil engineering company and also still farms and are called Nicol of Skene and on the back of his Scania which pulls a low loader or bulker reads... " designed by a Swede....driven by a neep"....I not so sure driver Gary agrees.....but he laughs it off and he must keep one of the best kept off road Scania's in the area. I can remember Catto's on the road 25 years ago but I must phone Mr SSW who is older than me and has forgotten more about Aberdeen hauliers than I will ever know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been asked by Mrs Cormack, Rector to be involved with deciding what equipment is to be purchased for the base. I had a great day and want to thank you all for your support, i am very hopeful of this becoming an annual event, let me know if you would like to be included in the mailing list for next year if it goes ahead. We would be happy to hear any comments about the show so that we can work on these for next year. Mum and granny think we should have a craft section through in the hall for girls!
