A Glasgow based architect friend of mine visited last night. He is staying one night, and one night only,in the area.

80% of the work done by his company is done for.............. Lidl.

He is here to survey and measure up Robertsons' shop in the Longrow..........

I'm not saying anything or suggesting anything and he would say NUTTIN!! but, make of that.......... what you will :wink:

Anyone else remember when there was a scrap yard there?

The residents of Kinloch Road's drying greens - one of which I hold the deeds for -my ain wee bit o' Scotland!

Now I remember a news item about a woman being paid a small fortune by a supermarket company because they needed a wee bit of her garden for access to their new superstore.
