It was the first of what we take for granted now on every other corner.

Sad to report that long time Spring Garden Rd resident Winsby Shoes will be bowing out at the end of February.
As usual late in the afternoon of the 31st the NSLC’s were lined up out their doors. Speaking of NSLC, the annual numbers were released this week and the Bayers Lake outlet took the crown for the highest sales, displacing the Westphal location which had been the champ for the last 4 years.

- 40% of all the spirits sold province wide are bottles of Rum.
- Followed by Vodka at 25% (94% of which was unflavoured)
- Then Whisky at 20% (68% of which was Canadian Whisky)
- Only 1.8% of all spirit sales were Single Malts
