  1. May the Viennese waltz past and slice open the Hun defence. COYRV
  2. Giving us the GIRUY in the main stand after Livvys 2nd goal
  3. Cosgrove and May,take a lot of stick,but were very good tonight.Need a longer run together.McGinn good too,just have to accept enigmatic type players like him and GMS for the magic they can pull out the bag. MacLennan was excellent,but not sure how much that was down to their L/B being mince.Wont do his confidence any harm though. An unlikely but welcome win.Haste ye back Devlin and COYR ps GIRUY the wee Livvy sub at the Merkland end in the first half.Hun..probably
  4. Cheers,....they dinna. Didna have time for food before the game,and nae cash,hence query. Emaciated, but happy
  5. In - hud mi back Anyone know if the pie shop(Mainer) takes card payment.
  6. Had high hopes today for a bit of a post Ibrox bounce,and the inclusion of Wright and MacLennan.What a let down. Up front was a disappointment,but lack of midfield creativity the main problem. Haste ye back GMS,and we must be due a good trasnfer window....
  7. Interested to know what we'd pay him.Am in the 'he's arite' category.Would like to see what some of our home grown loons can do before we commit to anything
  8. Robert Cray's still got it....
  9. Also like the look of that line up.Been curious to see McGinn in that role for a while,and could revitalise his AFC career.Think the knives are out already for him as a winger unfortunately. If they click,could be a few goals 3 - 0 Dons Mcginn x2,MacLennan
  10. Rico's nailed it.I would say the posh bit of "P",but I dont think there is one.Should really be Grampiandon these days You'll maybe recognise the Barmekin summit GG.This little temptress was waiting for me a couple of weeks ago Havnt been round too many of the local woodland walks,but theres more at Maryculter,Durris and Dunnottar woods Kowalski - Forgot about this beauty,the Kintail way http://www.affrickintailway.com/ Done some sections of it,prime Mountain country in there, with some bothies along the way. Its a bit more fun plotting your own route if you know where the bothies are https://www.mountainbothies.org.uk/ Others not done - Cowal way,Kintyre way,Dava way,East highland way,East coast to West coast(Aberdeen to Knoydart)
  11. BHH
  12. Yassss min,that was a ling injury time. Good results elsewhere
  13. Nae giving up on the boy yet.Maybe he's got the idea but needs to pass the batton on to someone who can manage it Heres someones explanation of how it works,though I think in barren places you need feed initially as per vid below - Summary of the method for those confused by the video, it "mimics nature" like the million animal herds of the Serengeti but with livestock. Because of the amount of manure & trampling in such big herds, the animals keep moving. This system moves the animals daily, but keeps them in as small an area as possible while giving enough food for the day. That means as much manure as possible & as much liquid as possible in the form of livestock urine. After one day's grazing, the fertiliser is allowed to do it's thing & stimulate plant growth. The animals only return to that ground once the plants are fully grown & therefore at maximum nutritional value - imagine eating wheatgrass v fully grown wheat plants, complete with wheat grain. Most farms let the animals graze at will, creating a wheatgrass situation, this system allows the plants to grow beyond baby stage & produce heavy duty food! (and root length matches plant height, which means an end to erosion & water run off too). On ground with NOTHING growing, they lock the animals onto that ground each night, as tightly backed as possible for a week or so, then move them out to better land for food each morning. The nightly urine & manure means a thick slurry of microbial life, breaking of the surface crust & lots of moisture to stimulate any seeds in the ground & manure into germinating. That new grass is allowed to fully mature before the animals return to eat it & refertiliser?
  14. Only done bits of the WHW.Spot on about the other 2.Great glen way started slowly but got better and better.Speyside way we were annoyed at how little of it was beside the Spey,some pleasant enough easy walking at times though Cape Wrath trail is highly recommended https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/cape-wrath-trail.shtml Hebridean way may be something different too
  15. Made it to HT.Backs to the wall second half 2 - 1 Hearts 1- 0 Celtic Hibs down 1 - 0
  16. Cheers Keep it up YR
  17. Have you tried any of the coast? If you head into Muchalls,follow the road round to the right,you'll come to a parking area.Park there,and follow the track under the bridge.Some cracking stacks of rock,and inlets to look at,after youve watched the sun rise on the horizon obviously(8.30am). Old Findon,park down at the far bottom left.Theres a path along the coast so far.And at the South end of Stoney,park at the start of the path to Dunnottar(ie not the main Dunnottar car park). Take a detour down the edge of the fields to the cliffs.We sat there for ages watching various birds coming and going mid summer. Pity theres not a continous path fae Stoney to Cove.Caution - Keep the bairn on a leash,some sharp drops Inland - The woodlands between Banchory Devenick school and Leggart tce.Theres a car park there.Some nice wee walks,around half an hour.Couple of old small quarrys,decent Deeside viewpoint. You can walk up the edge of the Dee from the Dee bridge a fair bit,and also from the Maryculter bridge down,but theres not a continuous path.Same at the Park bridge. If any of the above hills are doable,I'll give you more info.Scolty hills also a dawdle with a fine tower viewpoint.Head to Falls of Feugh and turn right til you see the Scolty hill signs Crathes castle woodland walks are good,free,...cafe a bit meh,with a fine adventure area,maybe for older kids though(£3) EDIT - Sunset at Loch of skene - Theres a car park space on the Loch side of the road(B9126) that runs from Garlogie to Skene.Stopped there on the way home one night.Short walk to the lochside with paths round the edge.It was also the gathering point for hundreds of geese at that time of day(sunset) from all directions.Impressive sight/noise ....right,away to check out some of these unSavory findings
  18. Sake min,half an hour of hope crushed already Got any links? Found this one(among mostly positive comments) in the comments section.Seems to be his lack of data to back his ideas up ?https://www.sierraclub.org/sierra/2017-2-march-april/feature/allan-savory-says-more-cows-land-will-reverse-climate-change Another good listen(to me at least)
  19. Well its outdoors,nae sure where else to stick this Alternative solution to climate change?.Goes against what we thought....
  20. Agree with all that.Would add,I'd prefer we employed an attack with pace v Celtic,and with guys that can move and receive the ball quickly.Taking the big man up front out of the equation,rarely succesful IMO,you would hope might force more invention.Thought McLennan showed a bit of promise today,and nothing to lose trying Anderson in stages from now too A bit sad when were relieved we only got beat 1- 0 though
  21. Good indeed.No surprise though,a shitehouse from top to bottom https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46403987
  22. Bar a bit of stubble,never grown any facial hair myself,but thought a mouser or 2 might trick some of our limp blouses into more Samsonish attitude ..eg Christine Forrester and Larry Gleeson.
  23. Loved Stuart Kennedy back in the day.Remember randomly bumping into him in Blackburn that summer and asking when he thought he'd be back.Was quite hopeful he'd be back earlyish in the new season..... Never played again. Great player,great moustache.Bring back the mouser,enough of these creepy Amish beards....
  24. Swap McLennan for Anderson and youre onto something there as you say though canna see it .A more likely surprise would be with Tansey at centre half,or Ball on the wing
  25. Considine in for Devlin.See how it pans out but you can tell early on if Wilson is up for it or not.Hope Del recognises it quickly and gets on Anderson,or my pref,McLennan Tough game,but a potentially good line up. 0 - 2 Dons May x2 COYR
