Ferguslie Parks, Pals of the Privies Foam Party in Glen Coats park was great success for all involved on Sunday July 18th 2021. With giant inflatable’s, a huge wet soapy slide, Clyde ones George Bowie dj ing the event and the star of the show, the foam machine its self. This was a cracking day for parents and kids alike and it was mobbed.
One person told me when he bragged to his work mates about all the events the Ferguslie community groups have staged over the years. Only for their jaws to drop when it was pointed out, it was all free.
All this due to the hard work of the many groups who caught the eyes of so many local business and whose donations made it possible for locals to come together and build community spirit to makes it a safer places to live for all.

The Benedictine Palace is a building combining the neo-Gothic and neo-Renaissance, built in the late nineteenth century in Fécamp by Alexander Legrand, a spirits merchant who made his fortune by inventing and marketing the Benedictine liqueur.
The building was built to the plans of architect Albert Camille (1852-1942), and built by Baron Ernest with local materials and techniques. It contains a museum featuring various collections (carved ivories, coins, locks, old religious paintings ...), but the distillery itself and its cellars.
An exhibition space dedicated to contemporary art, was established in 1988.
The Palace is both the place of production of the Benedictine liqueur and a museum, and unrelated to the Benedictine Abbey of Fécamp. One room tells the story of the liquor and another brings together some of the 600 counterfeit versions whose victim was Benedictine, one of the most copied in the world liqueurs. Plants are presented in the canopy in the Botanical Garden.
In most classical part, the museum has a large collection of art of the fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, in part after the personal collections of founder Alexander Legrand. There is also a contemporary art exhibition gallery open to the public.
The museum is composed of rooms dedicated to the ancient and medieval art with many elements from the old abbey. They contain a variety of enamel and ivory collections, the library comes in part from the Abbey of Fécamp, a collection of metalwork, paintings, mostly on wood, attributed to French, Italian, German and Flemish artists.
The central room is the Abbots, where the main interest lies in its stained glass, representing the home of King Francis I by the monks of Fécamp in 1534 and statues of some abbots marked Fécamp Abbey.
Fécamp is a commune in the Seine-Maritime department in the Haute-Normandie region in northern France. Fécamp is situated in the valley of the river Valmont, at the heart of the Pays de Caux, on the Albaster Coast. It is around 35 km northeast of Le Havre, and around 60 km northwest of Rouen.
The origin of the name according to its late medieval founding legend, the trunk of a fig tree (ficus) carrying the Precious Blood of Christ collected by Joseph of Arimathea was washed ashore on the riverbank at Fécamp in the 1st century. Immediately, a fountain of holy blood gushed from the site; the relic attracted many medieval pilgrims, enhancing the reputation of the city.
The monks' legend justified the artificial etymology of the name to Fici-campus, the camp of the fig tree. Fécamp, however, is mentioned in 875 as Fiscannum and in 990 as Fiscannus and as late as 1496 which stem from the Germanic root fisc (English "fish") with an unknown suffix. It used to be the name of the Valmont River.

Le palais Bénédictine est un édifice mêlant les styles néo-gothique et néo-renaissance, construit à la fin du XIXe siècle à Fécamp pour Alexandre-Prosper Le Grand, négociant en spiritueux et qui a fait fortune en inventant et commercialisant la liqueur Bénédictine.
L'édifice a été construit sur les plans de l'architecte Camille Albert (1852-1942), par le constructeur Ernest Baron avec des matériaux et des techniques locales. Il contient un musée présentant diverses collections (ivoires ouvragés, pièces de monnaie, serrures, tableaux religieux anciens…), mais aussi la distillerie proprement dite, ainsi que ses caves.
Un espace d'exposition, consacré à l'art contemporain, a été créé en 1988.
Le Palais est à la fois le lieu de production de la liqueur Bénédictine et un musée, sans rapport avec l'abbaye bénédictine de Fécamp. Une salle raconte l'histoire de la liqueur et une autre rassemble les quelque 600 contrefaçons dont fut victime la Bénédictine, une des liqueurs les plus copiées au monde. Les plantes sont présentées sous la verrière du Jardin des essences.
Dans la partie plus classique, le musée possède une grande collection d'art des XIVe, XVe et XVIe siècles, en partie issue des collections personnelles du fondateur Alexandre Le Grand. Il existe également une galerie d'expositions d'art contemporain ouverte au public.
La musée est composé de salles dédiées à l’art ancien et médiéval dont de nombreux éléments proviennent de l'ancienne abbaye. Elles renferment diverses collections d’émaux et d’ivoires, la bibliothèque provient en partie de l’abbatiale de Fécamp, une collection de ferronneries, des peintures, pour la plupart sur bois, attribuées à des artistes français, italiens, allemands et flamands.
La pièce centrale est la salle des Abbés, dont l’intérêt principal réside dans son vitrail, représentant l’accueil du roi François Ier par les moines de Fécamp en 1534 et les statues de certains abbés qui ont marqué l'abbaye de Fécamp.
Fécamp est une commune française située dans le département de la Seine-Maritime et la région Haute-Normandie dans le nord de la France. Fécamp est située dans la vallée de la rivière Valmont, au cœur du Pays de Caux, sur la côte albâtre. Il est à environ 35 km au nord-est du Havre, et à environ 60 km au nord-ouest de Rouen.
L'origine du nom selon sa légende fondatrice fin du Moyen Âge, le tronc d'un figuier (ficus) portant le Précieux Sang du Christ recueilli par Joseph d'Arimathie a été lavé à terre sur la rive à Fécamp au 1er siècle. Immédiatement, une fontaine de sang sacré jailli du site, la relique a attiré de nombreux pèlerins médiévaux, l'amélioration de la réputation de la ville.
La légende des moines justifié l'étymologie artificielle du nom de Fici-campus, le camp du figuier. Fécamp, cependant, est mentionné en 875 comme Fiscannum et 990 comme Fiscannus et aussi tard que 1496 qui proviennent de la racine fisc germanique (en francaise «poisson») avec le suffixe inconnu. Il sert à être le nom de la rivière Valmont.
