Green Flag for Starbank Park!
Starbank Park now has a Green Flag! Bruce Robertson of Keep Scotland Beautiful presented Starbank Park’s Green Flag to Alastair Robertson and Janet McArthur yesterday in Starbank Park. There was a good turn-out on a fine sunny morning (well, until it was coffee time!), the park was looking great and we got loads of publicity from STV and the Evening News.
Friends of Starbank Park and Two Flags!

Tidying for Tomorrow
A good turn-out and a busy morning! We cleared loads of grass clippings and hedge clippings (thanks for cutting the hedge, Julie) and even found time for some weeding too. Oh! I nearly forgot, some coffee and cakes. The park is looking great!
Overtime at the Park
We did a bit extra tidying in the park this morning before Thursday’s Keep Scotland Beautiful announcements. The flower borders are looking really good. The summer bedding is full of colour, the fernery is well-established and new herbaceous borders are flourishing.
We saw one of our resident frogs, a butterfly or two and some busy bees.

P&O Cruise Liner off Newhaven – the view from the park
Britain’s largest cruise liner was moored off Newhaven this morning. It is massive! We had to cross Starbank Road to see it but we did get a good view of the launches shuttling back and forward to Newhaven while we were gardening.
Britannia seemed to overshadow Inchkeith
