Hi folks ❤️

Thank you so much for all the lovely messages, good wishes and continued support. It really does mean the world.

I’m hoping to have an update on my health issues and potential treatment very soon. Everything seems to take an absolute age!!! 🙄😂

For now, outside catering is still very much available, but the shop will remain closed while I get myself sorted.

There are also some very exciting plans in the pipeline which I just know you’re going to love. 👀✨

I don’t like cryptic posts 😂, but I just want to reassure everyone that we WILL be reopening the shop. ❤️

Closing was a really difficult decision, but being such a small business, it made the most sense. It has taken away the stress of constantly trying to find cover and has meant I haven’t had to be there every single day — although I clearly haven’t been sitting around doing nothing! 😂

I’ve still been in making around 40 Scotch Eggs a day, preparing outside catering and catering at a local estate.

I honestly couldn’t have managed this without the incredible support from Dave, Emma and Calvin and the boys at , along with Scott, Justyna and Steve down at Ness Side Estate.

I’m also so grateful for the very kind offers of help from other local businesses and complete strangers. It has been genuinely overwhelming in the loveliest way. ❤️

So, for now, bear with me, keep your fingers crossed for some good news and watch this space…

And yes… there are a few things coming that I think you’re going to LOVE! 👀😂

….. That’s NOT my breathing …. It’s my constant companion who doesn’t let me out of her sight 🐶

Well… this isn’t quite the post I was hoping to be writing!

Firstly, I’m so sorry if you’ve messaged me recently and I’ve been a bit rubbish at replying. If you’ve been wondering where I’ve disappeared to, I promise I haven’t been avoiding you!

The truth is, I’m currently undergoing ongoing investigations for some health issues. It’s all a bit of a waiting game just now, with appointments, tests, more appointments, and enough hospital visits to qualify for my own parking space!

As much as I’d love to throw the doors open again, I need to be sensible (not a word anyone who knows me would usually use!) and focus on getting some answers and, hopefully, getting back to feeling like myself again. Because of that, Am Bothan won’t be reopening in the very near future.

Please don’t panic if you’ve already booked catering with me – all existing bookings are safe and secure, and I’ll make sure they’re looked after as promised. I may just take a little longer than usual to reply to new enquiries, so thank you for bearing with me.

Running Am Bothan and Hampers and Champers Inverness has never just been a job to me – it’s been a huge part of my life, and I miss seeing all your familiar faces more than you know. I can’t wait to get back when the time is right.

Until then, thank you for all the kindness, patience, messages, and support you’ve shown me. It genuinely means the world, and I’m looking forward to the day I can say, “Right… coffee machine is on, who’s coming in?”

Anne Marie xoxo

INVERNESS SHOP OPEN THURSDAY
If we had £1 for every “got any smoked bacon?” joke we’ve heard this week…
We’d probably have enough to give away smoked bacon all weekend. So that’s exactly what we’re doing.

Our Inverness shop reopens this Thursday, and this weekend only:
Spend over £30 and get a FREE 250g pack of smoked bacon.

Pop in, see the team, hear the stories, stock up for the weekend, and help us put the bacon jokes to bed.

Offer valid this weekend only, while stocks last.
