Day 4, July 5th Dinner at The MOORFIELD

Back in September, 2002, Lindsay invited Suz & Anne & I to the Braemar Royal Highland Society’s “HOSPITALITY TENT” and SOIRÉE after the games concluded. We had terrific fun socializing there, rubbing elbows (and other body parts) with Pipers and various Braemar Citizens. When everyone dispersed, the PIPERS immediately headed for the PUB at The Moorfield House Hotel and Restaurant.

So, after a brief respite at Anne’s place Suz & Anne & I trekked up to the Moorfield. It was soooo crowded! “How crowded was it?!” It took me 45 minutes to get us ONE round of drinks. I had to wade through a room filled WALL-TO-WALL with Drunken Pipers … then wait in line at the bar!

I luved it. But, there was no way I was going to go back in to get another round!
Anne & Suz waited outside for me to bring the drinks out.
Then, we socialized in the DARK for a bit, and WENT HOME!

So! THIS TRIP, when Charles, Lorna, Ben, Anne and I decided to eat at the Moorfield’s Restaurant, it was the first time I was actually able to SEE THE FLOOR & WALLS of the PUB! We sat in the PUB and enjoyed some cocktails until our table was ready.

I could just SPIT: I failed to get pix of the Dining Room. It was lovely, and the food was great. AND I FINALLY ate HAGGIS!!! OK. I sort of “wimped”: I ordered a Haggis APPETIZER! Hey! I ate it ALL!

Haggis has sort of a “gamey” flavor – like venison. So, although it wasn’t “horrible,” I’ll probably never eat it again. Want to know more about HAGGIS? Here’s my HAGGIS INFO page!

It’s a FUNNY, yet still INFORMATIVE, page of HAGGIS info!

(Put your MOUSE on the pic for a close-up!)

After dinner, we sat in Anne’s living room, having cocktails and CHATTING, for at least an hour or two! I thought I’d taken some pix during this chat session. But, I can’t seem to find any! Thank goodness that Lorna sent me this pic of Anne, Ben & I.

Hey! You think it’s a “BEAR” to GET THROUGH all these pages?!
Imagine having to POST them all!!! It was a LONG and eventful trip!
But, seriously, whether anyone ELSE ever “visits” all these pages, or not,
I’ll always have them!
And, I really do “reminisce” by visiting them …
as others reminisce about past travels
by looking through Static Photo Albums. LOL.
