A bus parked in #Beauly and about to run on the mail service to Cannich and Tomich, October 1967. A couple of months earlier, Highland Omnibuses had taken over the service from Robertson of Tomich but had not yet painted the vehicle in Highland livery

I tend to read that in a Doric accent. "Ye aye get a neepy smell aff is graowin crop..." Etc etc.
Fodder beet doing well in the lower park. Plenty leaves for the protein and sugar in the beet for the ewes at the turn of the year. Direct sown after the last cut of haylage. You always get a neepy smell off this growing crop.

Grewar's tatties still have to move. Passing the Nurse's House on 26 October 2026. It will be Christmas trees next.... #tractor
