It started off with a soup and sweet on the 21 January in aid of the Church Redevelopment Fund. For £4 one could get Boyne Hotel broth, Dorothy's Cullen Skink or a tomato and sweet potato soup. This was followed by a delicious array of sweets. There was a raffle and a sales table with Dr Anne's jams. £800 was raised.
The second event was also in aid of the Church Redevelopment Fund. SuziAnne with Fia and Ellen planned an Ab Fab evening in the Salmon Bothy. They decided to show the Ab Fab film on the big screen but they added lots of add ons. It was a sell out with a waiting list. There was prosecco and canapés. Friends joined SuziAnne and prepared four savoury canapés and four sweet canapés. There were nibbles and amazing popcorn. 14 bottles of prosecco were downed, cocktails and there were lots of BYOB. To make additional pennies there was a pamper hamper and an amazing fizz raffle. To serve the prosecco there were butlers who then became bouncers, flyers with raffles, security men when the raucous women rolled £1s for a smart bottle of gin and taxi drivers to take the ladies home or to the pub along the road. Over £1000 was taken in and after the expenses of the license and venue, £800 will go to the Church Redevelopment.
