Program

Message of Welcome from your MC

Selkirk Grace

"Some hae meat and canna eat,
and some wad eat that want it;
But we hae meat, and we can eat
And sae the Lord be thankit."

Address To A Haggis

"Is there that owre his French ragout
Or olio would staw a sow 
Or fricassee would make her spew wi' perfect scunner
Looks doon wi' sneerin', scornfu' view on sic a dinner"

Supper

"What tho' on hamely fare we dine,
Wear hodden grey, and a' that;
Gie fools their silks, and knaves their wine
A man's a man for a' that"

Tea and Coffee

"The appellation of a Scottish Bard is by far my highest pride;
to continue to deserve it is my most exalted ambition"

Toasts
 

The Loyal Toast

"But while we sing God save the King,
We'll ne'er forget the People!"

The Immortal Memory

"Let kings and courtiers rise and fa'
This world has many turns
But brightly beams aboon them a',
The Star O' Rabbie Burns"

Toast tae the Lassies

"Corn rigs, and barley rigs,
An' corn rigs are bonnie
I'll never forget that happy night,
Amang the rigs wi' Annie"

The Reply frae the Lassies

"Had we never loved sae kindly,
Had we never loved sae blindly
Never met - or never parted
We had ne'er been broken-hearted"
