The Times of St Andrews September 2010
Chiefs Night went off with a bang, with a very good turnout despite quite a few having the nasty flu that’s doing its rounds. Tommy and Lovie Soutar were reinstalled as Chief and Lady President by the Highland Chieftain Margaret West. Tommy installed Graham Kelly and Robert lane as Chieftains. Our two staunch Honorary Pipers Rodney and Phyllis.
George (Robin) Kelly once again being Honorary Chaplain, entertainment for the evening was our own wee champion Skylah Guest, Rodney and Phyllis for our Gay Gordon’s etc and Chief Tommy Soutar told the story of “The Rumour”, Party dances, Supper, a few words from the Federation Chief who also thanked the Artists before the Highland Chieftain Margaret West announced Robin and Glynis Kelly as her successor. All too soon it was time for Auld Lang Syne and Haste ye back.
