Really Arthur, I'm surprised it's so cold up there. You know Arthur, in the 60's and 70's when working I used to frequent all parts of Scotland delivering goods, the most regular destinations were Nigg Bay, Thurso, Wick and always picked up at Cadbury Shweppes Montrose canned fruit or vegetables to deliver to Reckett & Colman warehouses all over the south of England.

When you mentioned it's freezing, it reminded me of the cold weather always at the time we used to go round many farms collecting Seed Potatoes 800 bags per load all loaded by hand off the ground in frosty weather at night in the dark with a little light from the farmers old tractor, sometimes drizzling or snowing and had to cover with bales of straw and then sheet and rope up. The farmers wife's always used to make me some porridge to see me on my way and then I used to proceed to Lincolnshire and deliver to about four or five different farms during the following day.

Good old days!
