On Saturday the 26th of January, the Buchan Gardens Tenants Group held their annual Burns Supper. The event was well attended with 19 people enjoying a great night. The hall was appropriately decorated and set out along with the preparation of the Haggis, Neeps and Tatties by members of the Group.
Poosie Nansie delivered the haggis and was played by Jennifer Wilkinson (a sasanach). A member of the band gave the toast to the haggis and Tom Noble gave the Selkirk Grace. Everyone then toasted the haggis. The haggis neeps and tatties were served followed by either trifle or gateaux.
After the meal we were entertained by 'Buttons & Bows'. Our favourite band consisted of three accordions, one violinist and a drummer. Many Scottish songs were enjoyed as well as a few humorous stories. Another great night bringing a few of our residents together for a night of entertainment.'
