Hamish remembers the pies

Have been looking at past issues of the Gurn. On reading that of June 2005 the opening of a new shop selling pies is reported and that brought to mind 'Roddie's Penny Pies' which were sold only on a Saturday morning by Roddie the baker in his shop, now Asher's, in the High Street opposite the Waverley Hotel.
They were made in the bakehouse in Acre Street and usually sold out before they were cold. Really delicious. But then I was still in my early 'teens.

Best wishes

Hamish
