Turn right, then left past Alford,
Drive on 5 miles then stop.
The crowds of folk will tell you that you're at the Mossatt Shop.

Good old Copy Doug's (scuse me if that's not how it's spelt). There wasn't a commodity on the planet that couldn't be bought there. And as for the ice-cream parlour? ?=)

I attended Kildrummy School, and at lunchtime we used to run down to the Mossat Shop to buy an icecream.

Doug Anderson,proprietor of the above, was known as "Co-opie Doug" due to his connections with the Co-operative Society.As for the icecream,wis it nae the young serving quines fae Lumsden and Rhynie that were the attraction?

This was my grandad's shop I hear it was a great draw, have more pics at home.

I wis ane o the young serving quinies fae Rhynie, along with other girls and boys from Lumsden, Kildrummy, Alford and Strathdon. Many happy times.

I used to work at this shop circa 1973 - 1978 as a school boy, loved it, met loads of folk and ad great laughs with all the staff.
