Christmas Party

Thursday, December 15th 2011

The Foxglove Christmas party was once again well attended with 54 guests arriving to dine in style at Wathgill. Live music by the Compass Rose Ceilidh band created the perfect atmosphere.

Christmas Dinner

As usual, the food was fantastic and the service was excellent, a real credit to the kitchen staff.

The band were joined by Tony who played his electronic bagpipes.

Adam's quiz was a real challenge and Sylvia was even caught measuring her drinks glass to estimate the size of a hole on the golf course!

All the trimmings

Stan and Amy's hard work paid off as the raffle made an incredible £160. Thank you to everyone who donated prizes and well done to all of the winners.

Congratulations to Beryl for these beautifully decorated eggs that won the competition (sadly there was no competition as this was the only entry)! Belted Galloway cows with a sign to say 'Please eat the grass'!

The evening finished with a bit of Ceilidh dancing for those who felt able to get up after such a huge feast.

Thank you to everyone involved for your support and a Merry Christmas from the Foxglove team.
