Autumn 2012

This issue sees the K'nocker ending its first year since restarting. We would like to thank everyone who has contributed over the last year. Each issue is put on the village website just before the next issue is published and the snippets of information can be found by a web search engine such as Google. So, each contribution does not disappear into the mist but remains for times to come. This issue is particularly rich in fishing heritage. A fisherman's daughter tells us her memories of life at home during the autumn fishing down to Yarmouth. The heritage Group has information about the Port's boat builders, gleaned from a recent event at Cullen Gala. And an old stalwart is remembered in the poetry corner. Coincidentally, another thread running throughout is the Mair 'Shavie'. The father and grandfather of David Mair 'Shavie', to whose memory two seats have been recently erected would have sailed on the Lively with the brother of David Pirie Cy Pirie's grandfather, who had a share in the boat. As for Jockie Mair 'Shavie' he was an early relative of the owner of the Lively.
