Creelstock Raises over £2000 for Charity
"Creelstock" , held at the Creel Inn earlier this month, raised £2,051.48, which is to be split between Ochre and Marie Curie Cancer Care.
Organiser Keith Macrae said "I would like to thank all the musicians, everyone who helped with the set up and the sound etc and everyone who attended and contributed to the two charities. A special mention should go to Robert Lindsay and the staff at the Creel."
"It was a grand day!"

Boat Kit Arrives
The Catterline Coastal Rowing Club took delivery of the kit to build the St Ayles Skiff last week.
The kit, which currently looks more like something you'd get from IKEA than anything recognisably boat shaped, was collected by Rob Plummer and Peter Hales last Friday.
Rob is shown (left) inspecting the mould cutouts prior to loading it onto his improbably small trailer. More pictures of this momentous occasion can be found here.
