Spotlight
Halfway along Dunbar High Street, a short walk from the cottage where John Muir was born, there is a deep blue shopfront with the number 84 painted either side of the name. The windows are the giveaway. They are not so much dressed as gathered: paintings, ceramics, jewellery, cards and prints, the kind of arrangement that makes you slow down on the pavement and then, usually, go in.
