Well it was off to a great start in Portmahomack, with over 140 people gathering at the War Memorial for the auld year service  led by Rev. John McLeod and the torchlight procession behind our piper Rory to the Fountain where we just made the countdown to the New Year!!!

Billiant firework display at the harbour, kindly funded  by the Gala Committee and then away to the Hall to sample the homemade soup on offer, plenty of pots emptied as folk had time to share seasons greetings with friends, family and visitors. So once more a New Year dawns and me after a slow walk home and a couple of drinks will be ready for tomorrows ( no todays) New Year Concert.

For all our friends & family away from the Port at this time

A Happy New Year!!!!
