A Barn Dance with a difference! Afte the "Spring Fling" you expect the Summer or Autumn "Fling". Wrong. It was a "Barn Dance". Actually Billy Emslie had the idea of a small, private party for some friends and family to say "good bye" because of re-location from: Scotland
At Billy's request the Drumtochty Highland Games Committee arranged a" Farewell Barn Dance " and some 250 friends gathered to say good-bye and thank hin for his longstanding support. Billy was a founder-member of the Drumtochty Highland Games and was also competing in the heave events. For 26 years he has supplied the bales for seating and if you have been a visitor to the Games and sat on one of the Straw-bales, he even supported your "bum". ....saying fare-well to friends, who all enjoyed the party. Moving to Canada with wife Linda and children Morag and Ian does not mean to retire for Billy, no he just bought another large farm to carry on and wife Linda has secured a consultants post in the local Hospital. What he also said was he will be spreading the word about the Drumtochty Highland Games and maybe one day we might be twinned with the Canadian Highland Games from Regina All the best and thanks again for your great support ! **************** |
