Big thanks to May and Les Byres for the welcome, the soup, pies and mushy peas.  not to forget the buscuits & cheese, coffee & mints too.

There follwed a night of recitation, song, stories and jokes. 
A super evening in that, probably the one of closest you could get to the Life of Robert Burns, kitchen at Ellisland Farm.  Everyone I've spoken to, seems to think, they enjoyed themselves.
