D.A.F.C Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Our vigilant village shopkeeper would ask “would your mum mind” if buying tobacco, booze or renting 18 videos. Nice old shopkeeper in Dunfermline would come out and ask “wanting booze lads?” if you were hanging about nearby. Smithies? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.A.F.C Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Yeah. He used to sell booze to anyone. Nice guy but ffs right outside the police station?When we got massive crowds for the old firm games he used to put a kitchen table up as a barrier to block the door. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKMAN Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Just decided to go to Windermere for next weekend. Managed to get tables booked for dinner the Samling and at Hrishi. Copious amounts of wine and excellent food to be consumed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copious amounts of wine and excellent food to be consumed. That really is a reason to be cheerful!Does The Samling have Michelin stars? It’s almost my ideal weekend. I’ve checked out the menus & I’m very jealous. Have a great time & please report back on how you found it.Are you taking your partner?Will you get your hole? That would be the best weekend ever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hrishi does, but The Samling lost its star due to the head chef leaving, although its expected to get it back next year. Tried to get at a table at The Forest Side, but it's fully booked at such short notice. Yeah, she'll be there as well so I'd be very disappointed if I didn't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're like walking on air. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
