An ISF Christmas Carol
It’s the late ‘80s in Yorkshire, where our story begins,
One man and a van – but then an alarm bell rings,
‘There’s a gap in the market, ’ exclaimed Iain Scott,
‘For feed mill engineers – a great idea or what?!”
So, a business was born, and a workshop was sourced,
Followed by a team of engineers – only the best, of course!
The years that followed weren’t always smooth,
A first-class reputation means there’s so much to lose.
Recession, Pandemic, worry from morning ‘til night,
‘What on Earth’s next?!’ he cried. ‘This is absolutely shhhh…ocking!
But we meet challenges head-on with tenacity and wit,
Perseverance, determination, and true Yorkshire grit.
36 years gone in the blink of an eye,
on a late-night workshop walk, he reflects…
Reminiscing about past projects, employees now friends,
And a welding spark of emotion he gets.
So much achieved, a legacy to leave,
Supporting the British food chain, agriculture and farmers,
A tear appears as he recalls all the good, then whispers,
‘I’d still rather be on a beach in the Bahamas!’
Merry Christmas from all of us at ISF!
