Christmas finishes!
Yes that is it Christmas is finally over. We had the last party complete with crackers last night. The St Marys Parish enjoyed a belated Christmas party with mulled wine at the start and the option of Christmas pudding at the end.
The crackers and cloths etc are now finally in the loft until November anyway !
Burns Night 2010
On Saturday 23rd we held a Burns Night supper hosted with Melton Rotary Club. We had 66 attendees including Rotarians, their guests and hotel guests. The restaurant and tables had touches of tartan ! Piper Bill piped everyone to the table. A traditional Burns supper was served with guests carving joints of specially matured beef at the table. It was a very successful evening and included a raffle, whisky tasting and a very late night !! Thanks to Rotary and especially Piper Bill.
