Our second Burns' Night in 2 evenings but they were a little different to each other. Having had a slight accident in the car (not our fault) on the way we eventually found the correct country lane to Wishaw Country Club! It is a lovely venue and the food is stunning - it is one of those places where it is hard to stop eating although you know you should.
Sandy Aiken did a superb job of running the evening - addressing the haggis and giving the immortal toast to name a few of his jobs...

The Sailing Club at Draycote Water was a lovely venue for the Burns Night. Nearly 100 people were there to enjoy a traditional meal and of course the whisky (others of us were there to drive those enjoying the whisky home). I was well catered for with a vegetarian haggis which was lovely. The traditional elements were there with the haggis being piped in and the Address to the Haggis.
