Wednesday 25th January


The walk:

Alan, Davie Mc, Dougie, Gus, Ian, Jim, Johnny, Kenny R, Kenny T, Paul, Rex, Robert

Thanks again to Johnny for the coffee and scones before the bus was taken to Barassie for the walk along the beach back to Irvine on a decent January morning. The wind was behind us which made the walking easier.
(Allan and Johnny stayed behind to prepare for the evening).

 The Burns Supper:

Alan, Allan, Davie C, Davie Mc, Dougie, George, Gus, Ian, Jim, Jimmy, Johnny, Kenny T, Paul, Rex, Robert, Ronnie

This was, yet again, another excellent evening with everyone contributing in their own way. Thanks especially to Johnny (and Helen) for hosting the event and for putting in the effort in the kitchen. Robert chaired proceedings with panache (anyone for wabbit?) and the main speeches from Davie Mc, Jimmy and Gus were informative and entertaining. Everyone else chipped in with a reading and Ian (hiding his light under a bushel) and Ronnie provided musical accompaniment. It was good to have Davie C back with us for the night, and in good form. We wish him well in his recovery.
Paul happily? agreed to be the chairman for the Burns Supper in 2018.
