SAINSBURY'S in Corton will sell alcohol from 10am until 10pm on Sundays when it eventually opens at the Bankfield Roundabout.

The decision was made at a licensing board meeting at South Ayrshire Council last week which means alcohol will be sold for the same length of time each day.

Cllr Peter Convery said: "I know it has been a very long road to Damascus - not that there is much left of Damascus. It does seem promising for the near future and I am pretty sure we want to see that as well.

"I take it as good news. Hopefully we will see something happen."
