Can someone from quiz team
TK & the Sunshine Band please private message us.

Good morning, we are after a wee bit help from any residents of Hillend who may have had visitors leave late last night, around 2.30am-3am. While passing the pub they decided to kick over our glass waste bin that was waiting to be lifted this morning and showering the road with broken glass!!! Bad enough but they then set our general waste bin on fire too, thankfully it didn’t go up properly but could have caused a disaster as it was against a neighbour’s property!!!
Can villagers please check on ring door bells or any cctv cameras to identify the little cherubs!!!
I want to take this a lot further and get police involved in catching these idiots.
It actually looks like they have gone on a little rampage as other things have been vandalised in the village last night!!
Thank you in advance and hope to catch these idiots.
This is a crappy picture of the guys but so far it’s all we have. They were travelling from the far end of the village towards train station so hopefully someone will have something.

TK & the Sunshine Band smashing out a WIN 🥇 at last night’s quiz.

Two teams vying for the b***y prize …. The tie breaker still couldn’t separate them so they all “won” the sweeties 🍬 😂

Thanks to everyone who came out last night. It was an amazingly busy evening. The back room and the beer garden full 🍻

Helen & Jodie working hard to keep everyone hydrated 🍻🥂

And who can forget quiz master Dave and compare Chezzie 🎤

On a Tuesday!!!

Thank you Dunfermline Press for sharing our latest success.
