to support them. This is the premier Scottish musical event of the year
with world class performers.

"There was a young lady named Perkins,
Who had a great fondness for gherkins,
She went to a tea,
And ate twenty-three,
Which pickled her internal workin's."  -  Anonymous

Cakes.jpg

"A hardened and shameless tea-drinker, who has for twenty years diluted his meals with only the infusion of this fascinating plant; whose kettle has scacely time to cool; who with tea amuses the evening, with tea solaces the midnight, and with tea welcomes the morning."  Samuel Johnson

MacYCheese.jpg

"Thank God for tea!  What would the world do without tea?  How did it exist?  I am glad I was not born before tea."  Rev. Sydney Smith

"Said a bad little youngster named Beauchamp:  "Those jelly-tarts, how shall I reauchamp?  To my parents I'd go, But they always say 'No', No matter how much I beseauchamp."
