Watch Out The Bugle's About! It Could Be You!
'Mary Celeste', Final Resting Place. (Bugle Global Exclusive)
Recent picture taken at 12.30pm.
The 'old' Monaltrie Hotel houses 31 new apartments, all have been sold apart from five.
The Bugle wonders what the current 26 owners are actually bringing to the village. A Ballater local, actually living in this facility, who wishes to remain anonymous, states that only two of the 26 sold apartments are lived in on a permanent basis.
This scene hardly changes throughout the year, a true archetypal 'Ghost Ship' akin to the 'Mary Celeste'.

DELIA'S WAY OR YOUR WAY?
The Bugle's Home Economics Correspondent has worked tirelessly to bring you these alternative suggestions
to Delia Smith's cooking tips in her highly successful cooking publication 'How To Cheat At Cooking'.
Delia's
Way
Stuff a miniature
marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice-cream drips
.
The Real Woman's Way
Just suck the
ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for God's sake. You are probably lying
on the couch with your feet up eating it anyway.
Delia's
Way
To keep potatoes from
budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.
The
Real Woman's Way
Buy Smash and keep it in the cupboard for up to a year.
Delia's
Way
When a cake
recipe calls for flouring the baking tin, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead
and there won't be any white mess on the outside of the cake.
The
Real Woman's Way
Tesco sell cakes. They even do decorated versions.
Delia's
Way
If you accidentally
over-salt a dish while it's still cooking, drop in a potato
slice.
The Real Woman's Way
If you over
salt a dish while you are cooking, that's tough. Please recite with me the
Real Woman's motto: 'I made it and you will eat it and I don't care how bad it
tastes.'
Delia's
Way
Wrap celery in
aluminium foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks
The
Real Woman's Way
It
could keep forever. Who eats it?
Delia's
Way
Cure for headaches:
Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go
away.
The Real Woman's Way
Cure for
headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and drop it in 8 ounces of vodka. Drink
the vodka. You might still have the headache, but you wont give a s**t?
Delia's
Way
If you have a problem
opening jars, try using latex dishwashing gloves. They give a non-slip grip that
makes opening jars easy.
The
Real Woman's Way
Why do
I have a man?
Finally the
most important tip
Delia's
Way
Freeze leftover
wine into ice cubes for future use in casseroles
The
Real Woman's Way
left
over wine???? Helllloooo
????
