Annandale Group of Churches
Royal Garden Party.
11th June 2016.
The Royal Garden Party for Her Majesty the Queens 90th Birthday took place at Rammerscales, the home of Malcolm Bell McDonald, who gave us, with his blessing his garden and grounds for the after-noon.
The party was a great success, there were around 40 folks from the different churches, a grand social event to place, but best of all The Weather was kind to us on the day. It stayed dry.
The catering and refreshments were all done and supplied by folks attending, there was a bar serving wine, non-alcoholic wine and soft drinks.
The party concluded with a Songs of Praise led by Revd Martin and Revd John.
We were accompanied by a kind lady who brought along her portable electric organ.
Finally Malcolm asked us all to charge our glasses to enable us to sing Happy Birthday and drink a toast to Her Majesty the Queen.
Ending with God Save the Queen.
