October 2014

Huge thanks to the Gourlays for inviting us to play at Rhona’s 70th birthday lunch in Dunfermline last weekend.  We clocked up a few firsts – first birthday party, first time being filmed while singing and playing (should have sent that one coming!) and first time we have had  a whip round instead of a raffle.

Donations were made to the British Heart Foundation and Cancer Research UK.   The money raised in the whip round will be donated to Kidney Kids Scotland.

Our next outing is to Dalgety Parish Church on Saturday 24th October, doors open 19:30.   Tickets are available from the Church Office, priced £8.00.   Last time this included interval refreshments, featuring some particularly impressive home baking, the sort that’s always been in evidence long before any tv shows…  So,  whether you are there for the cakes or the songs , we look forward very much to sharing your company.

Let the games commence

After 8 Mince enjoyed a very pleasant evening at St. Ninian’s Church in Dunfermline last week.  Many thanks to the Guild for hosting us, and for the beautiful spread at the interval.   Looking forward to having Alex back with us for our next outing.  This was our first foray for 2014, so all the more welcome for that.
