I saw something on line about you not very long ago and was wondering how you we’re getting along. So glad to hear you’re "thriving". Hope the success continues. Keep use abreast of what’s happening there !!!

I am so happy to be part of something that has inspired!
My contribution to this is that on a Google Maps search from Wisconsin, US, looking at Ellon, Aberdeenshire, your place shows up in a search of Google Maps using the town name! Maybe useable in advertising?
Pic attached.
Like everyone says, smoke on! And all the best.

Hopefully I can visit one day.

MeatMonster Hey Alistair,
What a great success story and thank you for sharing. I stay in Central Scotland but the next time I am in Aberdeen I will certainly make the short trip up to Ellon and try Meat Monsters.
