@DuddasTunCider Sorry to hear this. Sleep well beautiful Bella x

We were so lucky to have her in our lives, and she'll always be in our thoughts. Best dog. We'll miss you so much Bella, Sleep well and sweet dreams xxx

❤️ Our beautiful Bella passed away on Thursday morning, and we can honestly say we've never cried so much 💔. She was the most beautiful girl with so much love and character. She'll be missed by so many family and friends who she never failed to bring a smile to.

@fellowcreative No problem - sorry I missed your page. Have sent a donation via the @LPTrustUK Just Giving page. Well done you! Fancy hair BTW! 😜 Look forward to catching up when you're next up north 👍

@MaidenDistiller Hi Helen. Sorry, I somehow missed this message. I think my donation page must have closed by that time but not really sure. Thanks for trying tho. I hope all's well. I'll let you know when I'm next heading north! :)

@fellowcreative @stayandroam @rem @LPTrustUK Amazing! Have been trying to donate some £ but seems their website is playing up. Will try again a bit later. Well done Carl!!

@stayandroam I'd forgotten too! 🙂 Honestly, I didn't even set out to grow my hair – pandemic stopped me venturing out to get a haircut & then I spotted @rem growing his for charity @LPTrustUK. It seemed like a great idea – 3 years on… I had it cut off a few hours ago – instant youth🤣✂️

@DrEdHenderson Yikes! Glad you got through🤠

STOLEN These 3 beautiful handmade items were stolen from Cherrydidi Ambleside yesterday. Us, the lovely Cumbrian maker @brightstar109 & Cherrydidi staff are really upset. There’s nothing obvious on our CCTV. How can we catch people like this? Let’s start off by sharing this post

UPDATE: a large search is underway in #Barham to try and find Olivia bit.ly/3kalxF7

Thank you so much for all your support over the last 5 years. Arwen is stuck in storage (poor thing) but sends thanks & best wishes too. Greetings from (not so sunny) Borrowdale! :-)

This would be a @brilliantgins #Raspberry #Gin served up with raspberry & mint during @WhiteHorseDover first ever #corporate gin tasting event for 20 gin enthusiasts! Other gins included @OrkneyGin @TheTigerGin @MaidenDistiller @brilliantgins & a mystery gin. Sante!

Oh gosh - so, so touched to have received this gift from fellow distiller Will @GSRdistillery after announcing Maiden's closure. With all the awfulness that's happening in the industry, it's heartening to see such a thoughtful gesture. Please support indie distilleries if you can

ANNOUNCEMENT: It is with a touch of sadness that I announce that Maiden Distillery is saying goodbye to Maidstone. The distillery has been making gin since 2015 but now the time has come to move on to pastures (or rather mountains!) new. ...
