Ceilidh

Well, we had snow all week and its snowing again now, but school has been on the whole time. Just thought since this is the Aberdeen, Scotland thread i might add a taster of Scottish life. On Friday I went to a Fundraising Ceilidh (traditional Scottish dance) set up the people who went to Mexico last summer (including me) to raise money for the Orphanage we helped out at. Ceilidhs are basically traditional dances that everybody knows or was forced to learn at school, like me. There was lots of dancing and getting drunk and a raffle (which my mum won the top prize, woo!). There were also stovies. How do you describe stovies... theyre basically meat and potatoes put in a big pan and cooked, to wierd, mushy results. A fun evening was had by all.

This is the sort of thing that happens a lot in Scotland, because us Scots do love a party . More stuff on Scottish life to come...
