Cut of first turf!

September 22, 2005

On Wednesday September 7th at 13:52 PM Hugh MacLennan’s digger put its teeth into the turf of 16 Skinidin for the first time. With this event the development works have officially started!This event was logged on a digital camcorder. Hughie and Pam made this occasion extra special by bringing along a bottle of Champagne, to celebrate afterwards. According to good British tradition, Pam saved the cork, cut it and put a coin in it for good luck. We really appreciated this a lot!!
