Anyone recognise this person? We had a wallet handed into Burt’s, found on the pavement nr. Hotel
The wallet contains some cash, and this persons picture. No cards.
I would love to reunite the wallet with the owner. Please give Burt’s Hotel a ring on 01896822285 if you can help.

Get ready for the The Borders Single Malt Scotch Wh**ky First Release. ⁠
⁠
Arriving 24.09.2026 ⁠
⁠
The Borders Distillery

A wh**ky can tell you where it comes from. 🥃

Ours starts close to home.

The barley is grown on 10 local farms in the Scottish Borders, the water comes from beneath the distillery, and the spirit is made in Hawick.

Then we give it time.

The result is a single malt that is light, elegant and fruit-forward, carrying something of the land it came from without being limited by it.

The Borders Single Malt Scotch Wh**ky First Release. ⁠
⁠
8 Years Old⁠
First-fill bourbon and Madeira w**e cask finish⁠
46% ABV | Natural colour⁠
RRP £46 ⁠
And only 10,000 bottles. ⁠
⁠
Arriving 24.09.2026 ⁠
⁠
Get ready to taste the First Release. ⁠
⁠
From a land built on making, always moving forward.

A shout out for

Can you help in their quest to decorate Melrose town center statue for Remembrance day?

Even if you can knit/crochet 1, it would be a massive help.
The one in the photo is roughly 2.5 inches. Drop off can be at the shop by the end of October 🥰

Did you know that the Tweed Catchment is actually bigger than the Cairngorms National Park? 🌊

At around 5,000 square kilometres covering much of the Scottish Borders and extending into Northumberland, the River Tweed catchment is roughly 10% bigger than the Cairngorms National Park, and is one of the UK's largest river catchments.

From its source high in the Southern Uplands near Tweedsmuir, the River Tweed itself travels 156 km (97 miles) to the North Sea at Berwick-upon-Tweed, gathering the waters of tributaries including the Teviot, Ettrick, Yarrow, Whiteadder, Blackadder and Till along the way.

Follow us to find out more about how our Destination Tweed projects are enhancing, caring for and celebrating the River Tweed and its surrounding landscapes. 👍
