2025 Caravan Show at Pettycur Bay will be bigger than ever
Pettycur Bay Holiday Park has announced that its iconic Annual Caravan Show, a huge, community event, is set to return In May.
Taking place over the weekend of the 24th and 25th of May on the Kinghorn park, the event also showcases holiday home sales. Available to view will be an exciting new range of reasonable priced holiday homes for 2025, including models from leading manufacturers, Carnaby and Victory. The park also has a limited stock of new 2023, and 2024 caravans that will be offered with substantial discounts, along with a large selection of used, ready sited, caravans.
A packed weekend of activities and entertainment is lined up throughout the Annual Caravan Show Weekend, which provides an opportunity to come together and say thank you to existing local customers, holiday homeowners and general members of the public, from all across the area. The itinerary kicks off on the Friday evening with kid's entertainer, Magic Al, who is performing between 6-7.30pm, followed by The Frets, a Fife-based band, on stage between 8-11pm. On both Saturday & Sunday 11am-3pm, a BBQ will be held, along with face painting, a silent disco, candy floss, Uncle Billy, another of the park's popular children's entertainers, a Bouncy Castle, Rodeo bull, Magic Mirror, Games, coconut shy, stalls, craft & tombola.
Local charities, Guide Dogs for the Blind, together with the RNLI, will also be present, with Pettycur Bay currently fundraising to raise money to name a guide dog. Such has been the success of the fundraising over the past eighteen months, that the park is now on course to donate not one, but two dogs. The first dog has been named Tom, in memory of the late Thomas Wallace SNR, who unexpectantly passed away in January.
On the Saturday night, between 8-11pm, singing duo, China Blue, will perform, with Sunday evening's entertainment coming in the form of karaoke with the very popular Chris Wainright, between 7-10pm.
'We are absolutely delighted once again to pull out all the stops to come up with a weekend of free, quality entertainment, and attractions, suitable for all the family,' said Janet Murray, General Manager. 'The caravan show is always a real calendar highlight for us all on the park. We love to see the whole community turning out for this.'
'But most importantly, this is our biggest and best local day of the year, and a fantastic fundraiser to boot for our designated house charities.
'We look forward to welcoming everybody to this year's caravan show.'

Romanian Fashion Week: parisian buyers on a scouting mission
A delegation of six Paris-based buyers, representing renowned department stores, concept boutiques, and consulting firms, travelled to Iași, Romania, for the 25th edition of Romanian Fashion Week. Their mission: to explore the country's creative potential. Invited by the festival's organisers, the buyers – Asano Miyazaki and Akane Tsuchihashi (Isetan), Alex Duarte and Sébastien Gibert (Agora & The Hideout Clothing), Mongue Din Harold Lloyd (Isho Concept), Alan Avenelv (Distelle Paris), and Song Pham (10 Lines Consulting) – discovered a burgeoning fashion scene full of promise, from young design graduates to more established names. All made the trip to the Moldavian region (Romania), invited by Romanian Fashion Week, to discover what local fashion could offer them. They knew nothing about the country and were expectant about what might appeal to them. Parisian buyers unite in Romania to discover creative brands The visitors were well taken care of, as Romanian Fashion Week – celebrating its 25th anniversary – placed a strong focus on the country's emerging talent. To spotlight this new generation, organisers dedicated the programme to showcasing recent fashion school graduates. The shows unfolded on an impressive open-air runway set in the heart of Iași, Romania's cultural and spiritual capital. From Friday, May 23 to Saturday, May 24, 2025, the Paris-based buyers attended presentations featuring graduate collections. On Sunday, May 25, the spotlight shifted to more established Romanian brands. What were their impressions? Did any designers stand out as future collaborators? FashionUnited asked these questions in a series of exclusive interviews. Raluc, Isetan favourite Credits: Romanian Fashion Week Asano Miyazaki for Isetan I went to Kyiv in 2019, as well as to Tbilisi, but this was my first time in Romania. We order from a few Ukrainian brands, such as Litkovska, and are influenced by what Demna Gvasalia, a Georgian designer, has brought to Western fashion. The standard, both of the organisation and the collections, was higher than I imagined. This is probably due to the fact that it is a country of manufacturers. Manufacturing is important to us, as is the choice of materials and the style. Irina Schrotter, Isetan favourite Credits: Romanian Fashion Week We focused our attention on the third day, which wasn't reserved for students. Three brands caught our attention: Raluc, Irina Schrotter and Axente. Axente, Isetan favourite Credits: Romanian Fashion Week Alex Duarte and Sébastien Gibert for Agora Duarte: We are curious. We like to be inspired, to discover new cultures, to understand how things work. This desire to share motivated us to come. We thought: why not bring Romanian brands to the French market? Their autonomy is remarkable. Many produce locally, so they have overall control of the work process, from design to manufacturing. Gibert: I wasn't at all familiar with Eastern European brands. I imagined a rudimentary fashion scene, but I discovered a more accomplished world than I had imagined, in terms of manufacturing and technical expertise. The embroidery work is simply impressive, I had never seen anything like it before. The experience was a pleasant surprise.' I really fell in love with Andrea Tincu and Lenca. Their sense of mix appealed to me: the colour combinations, the composition. It's bold and controlled. The materials give an impression of luxury, with a lot of personality. That's what I like. Andrea Tincu, Agora favourite Credits: Romanian Fashion Week Lenca, Agora favourite Credits: Romanian Fashion Week Duarte: I felt a real connection with Scapadona. The designs seem simple at first glance, but the details – the cuts, the materials, the looks – reveal real craftsmanship. At the moment, I'm drawn to everything that revolves around nature, bohemian style and meadows. I think there will be a real bohemian trend for SS26. From a commercial point of view, it's an easy aesthetic to sell. I also liked Daniel Radu.' This article was translated to English using an AI tool.

Behind the scenes as Robson Green and Carol Smillie trial ancient paddle boats on Loch Earn for BBC series
Actor Robson Green and presenter Carol Smillie trialled ancient paddle boards on Loch Earn in Perthshire for Robson Green's Weekend Escapes. Piotr Gudan, who runs Blairgowrie-based Outdoor Explore, introduced the pair to coracles for the third season of the BBC Two show. The unusual round-shaped boats were historically used for fishing and ferrying people and goods in Speyside. Robson Green's Weekend Escapes sees the English actor, 60, 'find wellbeing and adventure in wonderful places' with 'famous friends'. Previous episodes have seen Robson take on an assault course in North Yorkshire with Olympic champion boxer Nicola Adams, explore the Lake District with TV presenter Helen Skelton and go kayaking with former Strictly Come Dancing star Janette Manrara. Last month, Green was joined by presenter and Invictus Games medallist JJ Chalmers at Perth restaurant Brown & Blacks. The Soldier Soldier actor also visited Broughty Ferry for the show alongside Dundee-based Gladiators star Sheli McCoy. Piotr said he was approached by the production company looking for something 'rare and exciting' to do in rural Perthshire. He told The Courier: 'My favourite part was being able to take two lovely people out on the water, in crafts they would normally not come across. 'Passing on my love of the great outdoors, Scottish heritage, and the Perthshire countryside. 'He (Robson Green) is such a lovely person. 'It was a very relaxed atmosphere created by the whole amazing crew. 'It was fantastic to hear that Robson was already quite well familiar with Perthshire from his previous projects and visits. 'This place is amazing.' The TV stars explored Loch Earn and St Fillans with Piotr, who says he hopes to have passed on some of his knowledge of the area and ancient coracles. The boats he uses are built in Perthshire using willow framework in a round or pear shape. He said: 'Heritage crafts have always been something I have had a passion for. 'My storage is packed with some amazing gems. 'Coracles, however, have taken a special place amongst all those. 'I am sure the first one I sat on brought a huge smile to my face, testing my balancing and canoe paddling techniques. 'Now, introducing these crafts to many more folk over the years, I am pretty sure the coracles brought smiles to all faces of those who tried them.' Piotr added: 'Over the years, Outdoor Explore has had the pleasure of working with various production companies, for daytime TV shows, regional and national promotional filming and documentaries. 'All were always focused on the amazing countryside of Perthshire, Tayside and the east of Scotland. 'It's a privilege to become an ambassador for this lovely part of the world, which we help to look after and inspire others to explore with us.' The Courier has rounded up TV shows recently shot in Tayside, Fife and Stirling set to be broadcast in the near future.

Family of tragic Glasgow DJ who died from childhood cancer launch research fund
Niamh Jobson had been battling a rare form of childhood bone cancer when she died aged 22. The family of a young DJ who died from a rare form of childhood bone cancer have set up a research fund in her memory. Niamh Jobson, a Glasgow-based DJ and model, passed away aged 22 in Hong Kong on January 17. She had been battling osteosarcoma, an aggressive form of bone cancer, for seven years. Despite enduring chemotherapy and losing her leg to the disease, she moved to Glasgow and became a prominent figure in the city's music scene. Her family has set up the Niamh Jobson Research Fund to raise money to advance crucial research and treatments for osteosarcoma - which mainly affects children and young adults. The initiative will launch at Glasgow's SWG3 on Saturday, June 28 and feature sets from artists Kairogen, Danny Greenman, Timescape, VXYX, Harry Mawby and LAZLO who all shared the stage with Niamh. Niamh became well known for producing and playing dance music in Glasgow in iconic dance venue Sub Club. Her family and fellow artists say they continue to feel her absence every day but through the research fund, they hope to turn grief into action. Her brother, Finn Jobson, described her as 'my best friend and partner in crime". He said: "I will never get over the loss of my best friend. Watching her suffer from this heinous disease, while powering through with her impressive and promising career cut far too short by osteosarcoma. "Creating this fund and launching it in a very 'Niamh' manner, we will be able to assist her dream of helping kids in this position get another chance at life, while also pushing her unique underground club techno sound to the people of Glasgow. She was my partner in crime and we will carry on living like Niamh." Her dad Jonathan previously told how she had been taken to casualty aged 16 after experiencing pains in her leg. Doctors discovered a tumour on her leg which spread to her lungs. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community! Get the latest news sent straight to your messages by joining our WhatsApp community today.

She had her leg amputated and was fitted with a prosthetic months before she died. Paying tribute to their daughter at the time, her family said: "It is with the most insurmountable pain that we take this time and space to inform you all that our hugely gifted, talented, intuitive, wise, fiercely clever, funny, sparkly, stunningly beautiful legend of a girl, Niamh Jobson, died on Friday, 17th January 2025 in Hong Kong, a few short miles from where she was born. "Today (22nd) is her 23rd birthday. Please, wherever you are in the world, whatever you are doing, join us in celebrating our much loved Queen today. We will be in touch in the coming weeks to inform you of further arrangements. Thank you and much love to you all. Rest in Glory our Queenie. We love you with all our might. Mumma, Dad, Finn & Betsy-Mae." Tickets for the SWG3 event can be purchased at with all money raised going to the research fund.
