Josephine Laing was exhibiting but also found time to see what was on offer
With the discontinuation of The Taste of Grampian, Ross McKirdy, Manager at the Grampian Transport Museum, Aberdeenshire, spotted an opportunity for local producers to showcase their wares, so back in July the Museum decided to launch a new venture for producers and craft workers called the Best of Grampian. We were there with our Beautiful Fleece and Yarn stall, and during a break I managed to find time to have a chat with some of the 50 plus stallholders in attendance.

The secrets behind maximising incubator hatch rates
Buying quality point of lay hens can be an expensive proposition these days (even if you can find a local source of the breed that you want). Incubating fertilised eggs can save a great deal of money and make many more breeds accessible. If you already keep poultry that includes a cockerel, an incubator means that you can hatch their eggs either to increase your flock or to sell. Hugh & Fiona Osborne have been using incubators for many years and have learned that getting a good hatch means attention to detail.
