On behalf of Evergreen:

Special treat!

Locally grown, organic pressed coudy apple juice at the Ever Green shop next week. This is from Brunstane House, where our exceptional local organic honey comes from.

This unadulterated pure fresh apple juice has a short shelf life but it does suit domestic freezing. (unless you like cider, which is what happens after 5 days but we are not allowed to sell it)

Sean (the provider) does not have containers - there's loads of legislation round doing the bottling anyway - so if you would like some, please bring a container into Ever Green (like a 2 litre washed our plastic milk jug, for instance) with your phone number firmly attached to the outside and we'll do the rest! It will be about Â£1.70 a litre, depending on how much we can sell - (work of pressing it is same regardless of what we sell)

From Tuesday.

I think they may sell a lot of this juice. Its a pity its so seasonal otherwise I could see it becoming their core business.

As young Henry and I perambulated alongside Brunstane House which is apparently situated a mile south of Portobello and 2 miles east of Duddingston, (Niddrie?) in East Edinburgh, we considered that the present Bruntstane House was built in 1639 for John Maitland, 1st Duke of Lauderdale (1616-82). Not a bad lad in all things.

Henry thought that the house incorporated an earlier L-plan house built around 1565, itself erected on the site of an even earlier tower which had been owned by the Crichton family. Now those Crichtons, you know what happened at the Castle in Midlothian eh!

He also thought that they had the help of the noted architect Sir William Bruce (1630 - 1710), (Billy, the bully we called him), on account of his tireless schedules and ritual sniping at the workers.

Henry maintained that â€œOld Jockâ€
