    Gael's Fire at Balgonie Castle

    Rose from RT Burns club asked me to pass the word about this event.




    Stuart Morris of Balgonie and Eddergoll, Og and Raymond Morris of Balgonie and Eddergoll, The Laird, in conjunction with RT Burns Club, have pleasure in inviting you to a very special charity evening at Balgonie Castle on the 25th March 2011, to raise funds for The Tay Rail Bridge Disaster Memorial Trust.

    originally known for its illustrious visitors including ...King James, Mary Queen of Scots and Roy MacGregor is now extremely popular for weddings and functioned events.'
