Over the years the event has been held in various places with this year moving to the new venue of a warm and welcoming Mayview Hotel Function Suite. This year\u2019s party seemed to be greatly enjoyed by all and well attended by nearly 50 guests who were entertained by local young musicians, a slightly older Billy Buchan and all joined together in a sing-a-long.
