Excuse my ignorance , not my fortei..

Down here we do a lot of chestnut, I went to Aberdeen once to look at a farm, all the trees were growing horizontal and the farming far too tough for a southerner so I settled back down here.

your absolutely bang on! Anything out in the open gets obliterated by the wind !

Shame you couldn't settle , I'm not a farmer but the market at Thainstones of Inverurie is a tremendous experience !!!
