The two best charity shop runs used to be Morningside and Stockbridge, but I think the leader is Porty now! We've got the delis and cafes to keep the shoppers refuelled too, which is better than Morningside anyway.

I see M People are on the move, as per a notice in their window. Apparently moving to Evergreen premises on 24 Oct.

No idea who, if anyone, is taking on the M People premises, Porty or PoP may be able to shed more light...

Having read Evening News re the bookies sat dish wonder if they'll be going back to the old shop

I can't find the article in question.

Seems to have been removed. It was basically just saying that the planning committee are recommending that a retrospective planning application to install a dish is refused and enforcement action taken.

Pop-in had a wee black dish, Bookies now have a big metal one... Front of a building in a conservation area... blah, blah.

Of course, probably a bit of a "how do they get away with that?" following last weeks refusal on the Deli shutters.

Crazy stuff.
