muttondressedaslamb Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Random question but can you turn up to the golf course for your supper from the club house? Cruden Bay GC had a right fine restaurant but you had to be a member and have no denim to get in. That was back in the day though, probably changed now. Link to comment
Admin Bebo Posted November 24, 2012 Admin Share Posted November 24, 2012 This is the proposed location of the development windfarm centre. One is the original application site, and the other is the amended location where it will actually be built, but i couldn't find which is which. or Link to comment

Old Wing Stand Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I agree with Roberto here, this windfarm would have had the usual anti progress people up in arms and the protesting would have been on a huge scale, the reason they're all being quiet about these ugly things spoiling our coastline is because it will piss off Mr Trump! The people who planned this knew exactly what they were doing, this spot has been chosen because it will draw the least amount of protest from the leftist twats who feck up everything else for the good people of the city. Wasn't leftists who tried to block the AWPR more like right wingTory cunts from the west end Link to comment

Always nice to try somewhere new in the area as there aren't too many options (excl Abdn). Link to comment

The Boofon Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 I see the Trump course has won an award of sorts. Award relating to Trump course An Aberdeenshire farmer who fought a long-running battle against American billionaire developer Donald Trump, has been named Top Scot at a high profile awards ceremony. Michael Forbes took the honour at the Spirit of Scotland Awards where he was praised for his stance against the tycoon's north-east golf development. Mr Forbes won the Top Scot prize at the Glenfiddich Spirt of Scotland ceremony in Edinburgh. Donald Trump once branded the farmer's property, which borders the Menie Estate, as a slum. Broadcaster Kirsty Wark, who presented the awards, said: "The winner of the Top Scot Award is a real people 1 Link to comment

I await to see Donald's reply to this be no doubt something embarrassing.Where has Trump ever said that? It's blatantly obvious that's what Forbes was after, he didn;t even turn up to the public meetings, that's how much he gave a damn about it all, he was using the rent a mob for his own ends, nothing was more obvious.

fatshaft Posted November 30, 2012 Author Share Posted November 30, 2012 Trump said in the documentary they agreed an offer Mr Forbes denies any offer was made.Strange then, that David Milne says he refused an offer and woudn't sell, and minker Forbes was on record in the TV documentary (not the recent film version) that "he could stick his money up his erse". He was offered, he was offered again, he thought his lottery numbers had come up, but he overplayed his hand and got called. Bet he lies in bed every night greetin. Link to comment

Not Paul Lawrie, or Richie Ramsey, or Andy Murray, or Chris Hoy, but farmer palmer and his get orf my land spiel? 4 Link to comment

zander Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 FS it went to a public vote if you cared about the award in the first place why not vote for Lawrie or Murray who I both agree are better candidates. I didn't vote so therefore I won't moan about it. As for Trump he's fucking lost it, he's not happy people are showing a bit of opposition to him. Glad this guy didn't get anywhere near the US presidency he can't take one bit of critiscm. Link to comment

Rent-a-mob cottoned on, and have obviously rallied their troops to get him the votes. I imagine the winner didn't even get a 4 figure count, such is the anonymity of this "award". As for Trump, yes he'd have been a godawful politician, but he's a superb marketeer. The guy gets more free publicity than anyone I've ever seen. Link to comment

I've been led to believe by a local former golf pro, who was at a closed doors meeting last year with a select few, that Trumpy is a totally different character once the cameras are off. There's nothing about how he operates leads me to believe that he does any of this OTT shit for any reason other than to get publicity. You simply can;t buy the column inches that he gets from these things, and the rent-a-mob fall for it time and time again. Link to comment
