A popular Lybster shop had to cancel its Christmas party this year but went out into the local area to spread some festive cheer instead.

Donald Henderson, who runs D&S Henderson's convenience store in Lybster with his wife Sonya, decided this year to hand out afternoon tea hampers purchased from the Home Bakery in Wick and Johnstone's of Thurso.

Donald said: "We had great fun delivering over 70 hampers to local pensioners/customers and hopefully we'll have our party as normal next year."
