Our St Andrew's Ceilidh on Saturday November 23rd  was a great success. We were Piped into the Hall for pre-dinner dancing and then sat down to a fabulous meal of Scottish beef stew followed by Cranachan all beautifully cooked by Antony Freeman. The Royal Borough Band did their usual great show and helped the dancers have a really fun time!

So now we move on to our next fun occasion!!!!!
