Hi fellow caravanners, I’m sort of new to your Centre, but we have been rallying for a good 15 years or more.
I am a Quality Engineer by profession so my job is to “find fault”, onto the “Burns Night” right it was frosty in the mornings, oh and the grass did get a little damp underfoot, and; no!! that’s about it.
The one thing about finding fault is that everything else is O.K. except in this case; we went knowing very little of “Robbie Burns” or the etiquette surrounding such an event, but I’m sure all who attended will agree it was as near perfection as you could wish for.
Ian, our Master of Ceremonies (hope that is the right title) carried out his faultless rendition of Robbies classics between the courses with a spell bounding attack on the poor undefended Haggis (freshly caught that morning may I add). Further Addresses to the Laddies and the Lassies followed, and some reference to “Art-if-is-I-al In-sem-in-asian, which really brought the house down and a great relief to Gina (hope the name is right).
With a 5 course meal our hosts had their work cut out, but with a bit of outside assistance they done an absolutely marvellous job, Haggis, yep I ate Haggis and in the words of that Old Norfolk Turkey grower “it was “BOOTIFUL”.
All that was needed to finish of an excellent evening was a good selection of music and dance, all ably furnished by Ivan and his little green helper.
Oh by the way if any one wishes to know, the music was “The Ghosts of Culloden” by Isla Grant the dance was “Black Coffee”.

They say that credit where credit is due, this weekend fulfilled all our expectations and much more, names are not for mentioning, this was a team, a well oiled machine! which produced the goods and then some. Many, many thanks to the team see ya next year for a bit more of the same.
