    The vacant shops really give oor auld toon a depressing look as not only are smaller premises empty but huge
    places like Patties, Palings and the once lovely shop Blacklock and Farries in Church Crescent.

    yep your right ftivano ,but there lies the spoils of one of the very few tory seated areas in scotland ,but what pees me off more is the cash involved in putting these extra pavement areas across from the lidle store with fancy circle garden boxes ,just to try to make that area look good ,what a waste of cash that is ,that cash could be used for better things no need for these garden creations lol .
