Don't mess with Cornwall
Till you have tried and been tested.
For real, not a Ginsters. glf |
Bill McLaren used to bring some bridies in to the flying club at Dundee when he kept his AA5 there.
D.O. |
I have tasted one in a village where everyone looks the same with webbed fingers, with a pub call the smugglers inn.
Mind you the ones in LGW next to the train station aren't to bad either. Main thing about the Forfar Bridies made in forfar is that they get the meat from the local butcher and it will be local beasts killed up in Portlethen. Which to be honest is why alot of things taste better up north they just don't go through the same supply chain that they do down south. Oh and if anyone is passing the killing factory on the way to Aberdeen from the south its well worth stopping at the factory shop. If its a bulk order go in in the morning and pick it up on the way back frozen or unfrozen your choice. They will go and cut what ever you like. Last time I was in they did us half a lamb for about 20% cheaper than the shops. |
Perhaps some bridies could be laid out to assist in finding this strip from the air. Failing that, some co-ordinates would be helpful.:rolleyes:
P.S. The best bridies in the world are locally made in Portpatrick:) |
Maybe piperboy can do a bridie on request for landing.
Stick them in a cooler box at the side of the field if he isn't about :D |

Dare i say it, but I prefer Saddlers bridies over Maclarens. Cant beat a cup o' tea and an elephants lug after a long flight.

I think they want you to go stand in the middle of the runway with a GPS and get Lat, long coordinates.

:)That looks to be on Alfie Elder's farm. (Lochhead?) We were in the same Academy class.
|
I was just thinking i delivered there in an artic 15-16 years ago. JBT wagon.

That looks to be on Alfie Elder's farm Hullo, I was brought up at Burnside, just wondering where exactly your strip is. I was just thinking i delivered there in an artic 15-16 years ago |
:)Hullo, Piper boy. If you picked berries at Burnside you probably knew my dad, as he ran the berries there. we didn't have berries at Burnside when I was a lad, so my summer hols were spent picking at Foresterseat, which now seems to be a caravan site! Sorry for rambling on off topic.
PS Anyone going to Sywell? |
More than likely dropping tyres, then through to pick up frozen peas then down to Glasgow to swap with the Shetland dry goods then back up to drop at the ferry.
In some ways my life hasn't changed much becoming a pilot apart from you had to work less hours as a lorry driver. |
New mower delivered, my non pilot mate just cut the strip and sent me a pic, he got it like a bowling green literally, he cut it ACROSS and DIAGONALLY the plonker :ugh:
|
Planning on dropping in past tomorrow morning, interested to see what its like!
Regards UA |
All should be good, its recently mowed and another ppruner from downsouth who was reading this thread stopped in yesterday in a 182 on his way back from Wick said all was fine with strip and cafe. I am overseas right now making a frigging half assed miserable attempt at my IFR ticket so wont be there. Have fun !!!
