Very nice, Data. Stonehaven is a very picturesque place.
You've made me fancy a dip in the sea and a bag of fish & chips for tea now!

Ha Ha Sil
Interestingly, "The Bervie Chipper" in stonehaven burned down a couple of weeks ago, Orginally a franchise/chain chip shop, the stonehaven shop had been sold to new owners, the word is that it was also in debt, but thats "hearsay"............. "The Bervie Chipper" was first opened in Inverbervie, and won awards for being the best in the country, Stonehaven was very popular right up to the sixties with holiday makers coming from all over the country, till the rise of the package holiday in spain, Although years of decline have had an effect, new initiatives are hoping to bring the visitors back

Aaahhh....the package holiday...
Let's hope if one good thing comes from this ecomomic mess those financial whizzkids have taken us into, it's that we all rediscover the beauty of our own Isles instead of popping over to the Costas for paella and chips.
So don't the good people of Stonehaven have a local chippy now? That's bad....that's really, really bad! Poor buggers! lol

Deep fried mars bars??
Very sweet, full of fats and calories...and absolutely GORGEOUS, ('specially with squirty cream on 'em!) 
Cheers to the chippies of Stonehaven!! 
There are 2 chippies where I live, plus 1 kebab shop, 1 Indian and 2 Chinese take aways, and I'm not even in a town...just a fair sized village. Healthy eating is not really the buzz-word of the day around here...
