The residents at Craigie House celebrated Burns Day with a traditional supper. John Gillfillan, a regular speaker at Burns Suppers addressed the haggis and recited a few of Burns poems including Tam O'Shanter, The Soldiers Return and Sic a Wife as Willie Had.

Cathy Kyle, a well known singer in the local area, sang some of Burns songs including Whistle and I'll Come To you, my Lad with the residents joining in at times. The bagpipes were played by Ian White.
