Interesting to see that Argyll & Bute Council has been forced to serve a planning order on the old McGrory's shop on the Main Street. There has been no signage on this building since June 2008!

NOT Scotbet`s fault that the permanent sign hasn`t been erected - as I understand it, it`s been due to incompetence from higher places - you know who you are!

And to add to that, there was some kind of filming crew about the town streets and harbour area.

Yeah I saw the signage was started as well yesterday hopefully brighten up that area!
The film crews were about for Machrihanish Dunes, doing a promotional video for its website, they visited the distillery and were meant to be heading on the mull of kintyre sea tours when I spoke to them.

Spill the beans? Is it the Council again?

After so many comments about the signage of the Scotbet shop, I am really surprised that nobody has mentioned the beautiful new sign that is there now! I think the boys have done a fantastic job and it really enhances the Main Street. I have no idea of the reasons for it taking so long, but after a week of it being completed I think it deserves a mention.
Apologies if it has been raised under an unrelated topic btw!

That's true Katya it does look really nice now certainly brightens up that corner.
I see the KYES signage and kintyre property has been done as well!
