An international bonspiel
The start of a bonspiel at the Dewar's centre between visiting Canadian rinks and rinks from local clubs. Before play started all the players were piped onto the ice in the traditional way. This photo was taken from the viewing window upstairs in the bar, where I was enjoying refreshments after my own game.

Ice technician at work
Preparing the ice for some national play-offs at Dewar's rink. The machine is pushed up and down the ice to scrape the surface clear, then a 'pebble' effect is applied by directing a fine spray of water onto the ice. This provides the right surface for curling.
