Burns Night

Last weekend was Burns night - always held in our local pub in Yorkshire on the closest Sunday. We went up to stay with our friends and went out on the Sunday evening with all of our mates to eat amazing homemade haggis made by the landlady of the pub, Glenys. It was a great night with Sandy fiddling in the haggis which started a great evening of music played by our friends Caroline and Tammy with him later on too. Here’s some photos of the evening.

This is Sandy carving the haggis whist reciting Burns’ poem.

It was great when all 3 were playing together. Sandy is incredible - he needs no music or anything he could just join in as and when it fit and it would always sounds wonderful. He was also really encouraging when the others were slightly nervous about playing or getting the odd note wrong.

It was a lovely evening - much needed after the tricky weekend of learning I’d just had too. I’ll tell you about that in my next post.
