Reeling and Dos si Dosing!!!
We arrived at Forfar ice rink in time for some good soup and sandwiches and a quick catch up and blether with everyone. We were then entertained by Margaret P and Marion performing a couple of very funny party pieces and some jokes from our Captain. We then welcomed in local May Kidd who had come along to help us with our singing by playing for us on her keyboard. She showed great patience as we went through our songbook and several goes of our tour song. Her accompaniment made a big difference to our performance, as apart from one or two of us, we were definitely not selected for the tour because of our singing ability!!! Thank you May. More tea and scones, yum! After tea we went onto the ice pad (no ice I hasten to add) to learn a Scottish country dance invented for us by Sheilagh Mac. I think most of us were a bit apprehensive, as I think we felt our dancing skills might be similar to the singing! However Sheilagh had chosen a great tune by the Red Hot Chilli Pipers and soon started to lick us into shape, and we actually had really good fun!! Practice required, as with the singing!
