Who is interested in meeting in Porty for some Christmas drinks?

If yes, what dates suit and we'll go with the most popular.

Sandra

I have PM'ed you ladies looking forward to a catch up x

Sandra

nobody else indicated they wanted to go/replied to the invitation so we just decided to go ahead and book with the ones who said yes.

Sandra

me too! really looking forward to a catch up x

Sandra

Fantastic! Can't wait for the opening. Will be brilliant to have a new local

Sandra

didn't see that!
thanks

Sandra

seashell, thanks for that! Have also had another recommendation for them. Went into the showroom on Friday and have them coming to give us a quote next week.

Sandra

Can anyone recommend a company or person who can do a complete bathroom refit (new suite and shower and take off wall tiles and put new ones up, new flooring and lighting? preferably someone you've used and were pleased with the work. Thanks.

Sandra

What about Friday 25th or Sat 26th May? (lunchtimes or evenings)
Nice to hear you are a lady of leisure too Poppy! x

Sandra

hey! thanks! I'm trying to arrange a catch up - check it out!

Sandra

as a p.s. Loving COVE since it has brought more products in. I was in the other week and came out with 3 purchases!

Sandra

Victor Hugo would be FANTASTIC! I shopped there when I lived in Marchmont when I first moved to Edinburgh (way before it got its posh makeover!)

Sandra

Hi

It's been a long time since we had a catch up. I'm suggesting lunch/dinner at Malvarosa in May (Fri/Sat/Sun)

If you are interested please comment on availability and hopefully we can all agree!

Bob has suggested buying this (to help fund it)

Malvarosa deal

Cheers
Sandra

Sandra

Think Malvarosa is great. We love it. A friend who lives in Italy is moving back to Edinburgh and looking to open an Italian Bistro in Porty. I thought this would go down well especially if it is reasonably priced and authentic (her hubby is Italian and she has lived in Italy for 20 odd years). I th...

Sandra

really interesting post - have enjoyed, not been on here since 3 August!

On a different pub note looks like Barellio is being revamped into an eating place.

Sandra

Sandra

haven't got round to it yet

Sandra

hi
wonder if anyone can suggest a gardener/handyman who can get rid of ivy - we have huge amount on the back of tenement and its getting out of control.

Many thanks
Sandra

Sandra

yes, interesting site.

Sandra

both I think

Sandra

Hi
our printer has gone on the blink and I really need to print approx 26 pages. Would anybody be able to help me out? I can supply the paper.
Thanks
Sandra

I can only convey the effect it has on our business and market Saturday's are bad. Your shop may do well methabel but ours does not- its simply a fact. Can you explain? Don't understand why organic market makes business bad for pawn shop. They are both totally different things, so don't believe you...

stallholders are not subsidised they have to pay their way, whether by a full stall, half or a percentage of takings.

Sandra

noticed earlier on poster on railing by central bar that market is on tomorrow

Porty, don't believe that is true. I think it is likely that people attending the market will use the High St too.

Plus, the market is only on once a month, hardly killing the High St.

Sandra

really disappointed, thought PEDAL were doing great things. Loved the Organic Market.

Sandra

agree Straiton Place and Bath Street a problem but not Marlborough St.

Large removal van the other day doing exactly the same as that truck

Sandra

We went for lunch today and it was excellent. We had tortilla, chorizo in cider, calmari, jambon/manchego, mushrooms with serrano ham and garlic, pork stew. Stuffed. Doors were flung open as such a gorgeous day - what they need is tables on the pavement (tho they'd need to move the large refuse bin!...

I love him too!
Also loving Adele.

Sandra

I used the groupon before Xmas for a haircut/colour/conditioning treatment at Cascal all for £30. They got well over 1600 deals sold. (and a lot of unhappy people who had to wait till January to use the voucher!)

Sandra

yes, love your wee shop and that you stock Gillian Kyle

Also love the fact that the window display is always changing!

could organise a sunday or later on a Saturday, hows the shop going btw?

Sandra

went for tapas this evening - every table taken. Was really good would recommend (also saw Wangi and Mrs Wangi).

Food good, maybe made a few wrong choices with some dishes but overall delicious. Lovely puddings too.

Who fancies lunch on Saturday 15 or 22 Jan?
