| | | Christmas Fair - 29 November |
 The
visitors to the St. Mungo's Christmas Fair on Saturday 29th November
knew that it was never too early to start thinking about those
Christmas presents. The stalls were full of all sorts of great ideas
for gifts and stocking fillers. Agnes Ovenstone had some fantastic toys
for the children on display this year, and Heather Boyle had been
working  overtime
producing a wide range of Christmas cards, along with a selection of
birthday and special occasion cards. Heather offers a bespoke service
as well, to design you that card for your own special occasion.
The
bottle stall always does well with everything from soft drinks, wine,
beer and this year once again a bottle of whisky for one happy ticket
holder. Babara Sprott and Mary Paterson were behind the counter.
  The
Raffle had a full Christmas hamper with all sorts of delicacies to
sample over the festive season. Susan Dun was selling the tickets, with
a special raffle for a wonderful childs doll, complete with outfits
specially knitted which was won by a young Katie Jackson. Katie
had spotted it as soon as she arrived. Just as well her granny
Christine Jackson bought that winning ticket.
Another chance to
win a stocking filler was up at the tombola stall, where Linn Kinloch
and Joan Traquair had displayed a variety of great gifts. The book
stall also caught the eye of many browsers, with plenty of new titles
being added since the last display of books.
 No
Christmas Fair would be complete without the home baking stall which
was heaving with freshly baked cakes, meringues and chocolate cakes.
Helen Sutherland was tempting the customers taste buds. The
best thing was you could have a coffee or tea with a cake or two before
you took the plunge to buy. Talk about try before you buy. It
proved a popular idea.
Everyone had a great time and the Fair raised a total of £530 towards church funds.
