THE CRUICKSHANK DINNER – FRIDAY 24TH NOVEMBER 2017
Borderers,
Once again this popular evening will be held in the Buccleuch Arms Hotel (“The Blue Coo”) at St.Boswells and because of the generosity of the late Captain Cruickshank from Selkirk, we are able to keep the cost down to the same as last year at £19 per head which will cover a three course Dinner including wine.
Our guest speaker this year will be that well known after Dinner speaker, Brigadier Charles Ritchie late of The Royal Scots. He has been asked to keep us amused and entertained for about ten minutes and this he will certainly do as he is a great raconteur.
Musical accompaniment for the evening will be provided by Pipe Major Kevin Turnbull.
Timings will be 7pm for Dinner at 7.30pm and the dress code for the evening will be jacket with Borderer tie. As usual there will be a pay bar before and after dinner.
This Dinner is open to all ranks who served in the Regiment, whether as a Regular, TA or ACF and you are also most welcome to bring a guest(s) to this event. There will be no seating plan and it is our intention to sit at round tables of ten.
Borderers wishing to attend the Cruickshank Dinner on Friday 19th November 2017 should make payment by cheque of £19 per person attending, made payable to “KOSB Association” and forwarded to The Secretary, KOSB Association, The Barracks, Berwick upon Tweed TD15 1DG by no later than Friday 10th November 2017. Please also send full details of those wishing to attend.
