Life in Newburgh on Ythan

By Talpa

Life without electricity.

Old Hamish lives on a wee upland croft miles from anywhere. Fifty odd years ago he bought a TV, despite having no electricity but hopeful that one day Scottish Power would connect him to the grid. Many years passed but funnily enough the electricity supply never materialised. Eventually old Hamish ran out of patience and, being a resourceful man, decided to convert the TV to run on the fumes from his old paraffin fuelled Fordson tractor. The results were quite spectacular, but the picture quality was terrible.
