Couple who got engaged at last year’s Aboyne Games to marry in weeks
By
Clansman Sandy Leask proposed to Fiona Miller at last year's Aboyne Highland Games, returning this year just weeks before their wedding.
Surrounded by his fellow clansmen at last year’s games, he got down on one knee in the rain-soaked grass of Aboyne green to propose to the woman he loves.
Now Sandy Leask and Fiona Miller are set to be married in a matter of weeks.
The electrician made his annual pilgrimage from Causewayhead, Stirling, to Aboyne at the weekend to join his north-east family for the Clan Leask gathering at the games.

The couple will get married on October 3 on the banks of Loch Lomond at Boturich Castle.
Unfortunately, due to the wedding of a friend the soon-to-be Mrs Leask couldn’t make it to Aboyne this year – but Mr Leask said they would return as a married couple next year.
He added: “We love Aboyne, it has made it a bit more special for us getting engaged here a couple of months ago.
“I actually come up form Stirling on the motorbike when we had a nice day not too long ago. I came in and had a walk about the green, it was bringing back fond memories.”
