A Remarkably Lively 90 Year Old

 Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday, Cortachy Rural,
Happy Birthday to you.
Friends of long standing,
party food,
well prepared 
and presented;
honoured guests, 
good company,
happy memories.
Cortachy's Honorary President, Lady Airlie, and SWRI National Chairman, Isobel Robertson, cut the cake. 
Members,
present
and 
 past.
The Rural family
Cortachy Castle Gardens
A gentle stroll,
through scented azaleas,
to the pond.
Magnificent blooms
Generations
of members, 

Forget me not . . . fond remembrance.
 A happy group
in a sweetly scented garden.
Cortachy Rural's 90th Birthday Party 
 ended with tea and shortbread, 
 laughter
and sincere thanks for all our blessings.
