Roxanne's latest rant

The Piper not only featured Roxanne's latest rant against the local councillors - her revenge, it seems, for getting her planning permission turned down - on page one, but also page 2 - and they printed her letter in full in the letters page as well:

RS-M obviously still has friends at the Piper.

Snowed in at Findrack

The weather didn't deter Richard, Keith, Malcolm and I yesterday and we fought our way through the deep snow to Findrack to play doubles. I was driving Jo's car and couldn't get it all the way up the hill so had to walk the last 100 yards. It snowed again when we were playing and this was Keith's car when we came out:

and Malcolm's:

I had to be rescued by the others as the car wouldn't move but a combination of Malcolm's shovel and a push from Richard and Keith got me going again.

Who says the enthusiasm for squash is diminishing?

and some "live" doubles action

Findrack

Up the long driveway at Findrack, take the driveway that leads directly behind the white house and head up to the cottage/stable block. This is what you should then see:


The entrance to the courts is through the door that is open above - not through the porch on the left, which takes you in to one of the cottage bedrooms, currently occupied by one of his (foreign) estate workers.

You enter at viewing gallery level. The WC, showers (2) and (very) small changing room are on the right of the corridor as you go in, and the hot water switch is on the left opposite the showers - please remember to switch off after use.

Up a mini-ramp towards the viewing gallery and the 4 switches for the court heaters are on your right. Because there were 5 of us playing, Malcolm and Rob (Sutherland - remember him?) chose to change on the viewing gallery:
