Well we’re so delighted that Ally B's Restaurant are giving our old shoppe, as new owners, a great crack of the whip. If you get a chance nip round to and give them a try, parking right out front too, a lovely fire place uncovered and giving extra warmth reflected in the welcome Alison gives. Genuine folks with a great outdoor seating area too. Great breakfast rolls, and who doesn’t like fresh baked scones, nice food and chips too, the complete package. Gotta live MainSt!!

That ain’t right, although msybe not as bad as throwing it in a field or The woods….

Polite reminder that the bins at the back of the Hall are for Hall use ONLY. In the last few days we have found a roll of barbed wire in one bin and today this lot of tiles and plasterboard have appeared, none of which came out of the Hall. Please take your general rubbish to the dump. Thank you for your understanding.

If you like good stuff then this might be for you…a cracking red wine from Georgia in the Caucasus. Stunning & a great thing to sup. I got this from my friend Tariq in Wineraks, Aberdeen.
