The annual Burns Supper for 2015

The Burns supper held at the Masonic hall in Eyemouth

Burns festivities

The annual Burns supper was held in the Masonic hall in Eyemouth for Rotarians and guests. The traditional fare of Scotch broth and Haggis was served, accompanied with many songs and poems and plenty of good humour.  We were joined by rotarians from Berwick and Dunbar and guests skilled in the delivery of Burns poems.  We would like to thank all the guests for their support and their help in raising hundreds of pounds for local charities.
