I'm lucky because I had the pleasure to stand in the company of Stanley Robertson every day of the working week. I worked with him in Cliiper Seafoods Aberdeen. He told me that he was going to write a book. I said yeh right! Let me know when you're finshed and I'll come and get a signed proof copy from you. I left the factory and forgot about the book. Well guess what...a wee while later he sent me an invite to the book opening to Exodus to Alford. I've since read the proof copy many times. But the best bit was this...I already knew all the stories because Stanley would tell me them while we worked away day after day. Not only those stories either. Stanley could take a normal everyday situation and turn it into a great story. He will be sadly missed.
