Dinner and Ceilidh Celebration
Saturday 27th January 19:00 for 19:30
Yes it’s that time again, the 25th of the month has come around again as it does every month BUT after you have enjoyed the excesses of Christmas it will be time to celebrate the birthday of Scotland’s greatest poet (except for the greatly awful William T. McGonagall).
Burns night is officially the 25th of January. As this is Thursday, we thought Saturday the 27th would be better.
So the Laird invites you to celebrate with traditional fare, Scottish smoked Salmon, Haggis, Neeps and Tatties (Spicy porridgy sausage with potatoes and root vegetables – it’s really nice actually) followed by Cranachan (Porridge, Cream & Blackberries – or other fruit).
During the evening the Laird will address the haggis and his able assistants will perform the traditional toasts in a humorous yet respectful manner, followed by a traditional reminder of the life of Robbie Burns, explaining why he is well thought of around the world.
Something else to look forward to: there will be a piper to entertain and a Ceilidh (Scottish country dancing) with a caller to guide us.
The tickets are £45 for a three-course dinner with a tot of malt whisky to drink or pour over your haggis, plus coffee. If you have Traditional Highland dress of any sort, by all means wear it, but if you don’t this is not an issue. Smart casual or black tie is acceptable, it’s your choice. Your participation in the evening is what matters. For the ladies, posh frocks that can be danced in are very acceptable. However Ceilidh dancing can be robustious. We suggest you bring a pair of flat shoes.
