Crash My Model Car - “Probably the best band in the World”

Well, that’s what everyone, including ourselves, thought about last night. A fantastic gig, led by a cracking set by Sounds Like April and followed with a very loud and stunning performance by CMMC. Thankyou to all who came along and supported us and a bigger thanks, to CMMC, Sounds Like April and all our staff. Look out for the next gig after the New Year……oh yes, go out and buy the CMMC CD Ghosts & Heights.Some great photos coming soon, courtesy of Angus.

Fresh Local Mutton

From Monday the 17th December we will have fresh mutton from Aird on sale at Nunton. We already have Aird lamb and mutton, Hebridean lamb from Petersport and North Uist venison available in our freezer. Why not buy local meat for Christmas and New Year?
