Thank you, Dave. From Mainly Norfolk; Bogie's Bonnie Belle was a Scots Travellers' favourite bothy ballad. Jimmy McBeath sang it in a recording made by Alan Lomax in his apartment in London on November 14, 1953. Strathbogie remains an active community. Deveron Arts Ardmore distillery, built in 1898 to produce fillings for Teacher's Highland Cream, is set in the farmland of the Garioch, near the River Bogie and Leith Hall at Kennethmont, near Huntly. The springs on Knockandy Hill are the source of its water. Turriff United, another nearby Highland League team, play at The Haughs beside the River Deveron.
