We met at
Johnny’s before our pre-Burns Supper walk. Many thanks again to Johnny for the
coffee and scones and for being a martyr in that he did not join the walk, but
stayed behind to ready his big room for the evening festivities.
On a bright,
cold morning we ventured up through Girdle Toll before veering off right and
heading for Annick Lodge. From there we continued to the Stewarton road, which
we crossed, and made for Springside. Following the cycle track, we returned to
Irvine, having stopped briefly for a cuppa, where, given the need to go home
and get ourselves titivated for the evening, a decision was made not to extend
the walk any further but to head back to Johnny’s. A three hour ten minute
walk, for the record.
Fifteen
Ooters (those above minus Ian and Kenny R but including Alan, George and Ronnie) attended the event
at Johnny’s. As usual this was the highlight of the social calendar. The food
was great (thanks to Gus, Alan, Johnny, Robert, Rex and Davie) and the
entertainment was sparkling. Well done and thanks to all those who participated
by performing or by merely just being there for the best Burns Supper in the
toon. Well done to Gus for chairing the event so well and to Johnny and Helen
for yet again being so hospitable and welcoming.
