Christmas Party 2022

We got dressed up and gathered in the lounge for our first Christmas drink, on this beautiful early summer day. We all really felt need for a break and a chance to celebrate! There was a definite festive spirit in the air as we went round to the Tratt for our dinner of turkey and ham and all the trimmings. Alasdair, Joe and their whole fabulous team did a great job as always – the food was delicious, the atmosphere convivial, the wine flowing. Suitably full, we returned to the lounge to the beautiful sounds of John Campbell and Lorraine Delaney - our wonderful musicians for the night. After a break for speeches and the drawing of the lucky door prizes, some of us took to the dance floor, while others stayed chatting and enjoying their drinks and desserts. What a lovely time to spend with friends, neighbours and colleagues. Thanks to everyone who came to celebrate with us, and to those who had a hand in organising the night. Special thanks go to John and Lorraine for staying with us to the end and providing a fabulous celebratory atmosphere. And to Sam and Natasha for providing the great selection of lucky door prizes. All in all, a fantastic send off into the hectic whirlwind of the season. Cheers!
