Bar couple keep licence

A COUPLE who run a city bar have been allowed to keep their alcohol licence after councillors deferred a judgement.

David Hay and Sharon Watson operate the Gardener's Arms in Gilmerton, but were in front of the council's licensing committee for allegedly breaching the terms of their alcohol licence.

But it was decided to give the pair a further month to build a defence, as they had only recently been notified of the case.

They will appear again next month.
