Lord Provost to judge Scotch Pie competition

The Lord Provost of the city of Edinburgh, the Rt Hon Donald Wilson will be visiting Fife  next week to join the judging panel of the World Championship Scotch Pie Awards.

Now anyone who knows the Lord Provost will realise that during his term of office he has become a bit of a healthy living addict, with his marathon running, so we are not sure if he has had a pie in a while!

But next Wednesday 9 November 2016, he will join the the judging panel to decide which one is the best pie. Other products being judged include football pies, macaroni pies, steak pies and sausage rolls.

The Lord Provost will be accompanied by former footballer Simon Donnelly, Partick Thistle Managing Director Ian Maxwell and head judge Ian Nelson.

The judges will have to keep their decisions under their hats though until the winners are announced in January 2017!
