A few of the local shops on Kildrostan St are hosting their annual Christmas shopping evening tonight. Marie Brown At Home, Eve Boutique and Floral Haven will all be opening late to host a festive evening. There’s usually mulled wine and mince pies on offer and it’s a good opportunity to browse the new Christmas stock – they’ve all been frantically updating window displays and restocking with festive goodies! The event kicks off at 6pm and should be good fun and a great opportunity to support local businesses. It would be nice, in future years, to see a return to the bigger event that used to take place with carol singers and more local shops and businesses taking part.
