Afternoon outing
Jan. 23rd, 2026 06:54 pmMade it to the Mackays factory shop in Arbroath, ostensibly to get more Mrs Bridges morello cherry preserve. But we came away with 7 jars of jam, preserve, marmalade and chutney, plus unplanned fudge! After in Dobbies cafe, then a wander around the plants area. We live very near Dobbies, and first came to the cafe 25 years ago, after moving to the Dundee area. Many happy memories. Oh and I was trialling my sturdy soled new Moshulu loafer shoes. Very comfortable.
Very weary after our brief outing, but delighted to have managed it. Dobbies Dundee currently has a semi resident robin singing in the main shopping area! It's been there since Christmas. We thought they were playing very loud bird song through the speakers. But on the way out saw the robin perched near the tills. Attracting a crowd.
