| | | | CCHMSC High Tea Christmas Celebration - 12 December 2010
Fourteen
members attended the CCHMSC High Tea at the Royal Hotel in Perth on
Sunday 12th December 2010. With crews from Aberdeen, Inverness, Central
belt and Borders, the club covered most of the spots across Scotland.
Thankfully
the recent snow, which in places reached up to 3 feet (1m) deep had
suffered a heavy thaw following a change from -15 to -20 all the way up
to +8 degress over the previous two days. Otherwise club president
Douglas Anderson and his wife and Club Secrretary June may have
been sitting there on their own! But then again Dundee, the
sunniest spot in Scotland (so Douglas tells me), was also badly hit.
However
we all made it and enjoyed the warmth of the hotel and a slap up
Scottish High Tea. Following a tea and toast, a wide range of main
courses was on offer and some had difficulty in choosing, there being
so many favourites on the menu. To follow there was the customary cake
stand, laden with scones and jam, cream cakes, and meringues. Calorie
controlled it was not, but there was precious little left after the
crews devoured all the delights.
Of course the conversation was of Classic motosrport, cars, restorations, what to drive next year etc. The forthcoming Rally School on 3rd January and Monte Glasgow Start and Heritage Run on the 27th January, as well as the rest of the 2011 events was eagerly discussed, with some good ideas thrown in for good measure.
By time we finished we looked round and we were the last to leave (well that's not too unusual :-) ).
Have a look at all the new 2011 events, there is something for everyone, so join the Club now
and you will be welcomed into a great group of classic car owners
and enthusiasts. you don't have to own a Classic car to be a
member.
