Join our member Cameron who will regale us with the trials & tribulations of bringing the Highland Games back to Shanghai for a second year. Capturing the spirit of Scotland through traditional sport, music, food with a vibrant community celebration. A truly unique cultural experience for Shanghai, celebrating Scotland’s rich heritage, traditions, and strong sense of community. Learn how Cameron survived the preparation and the day, with its ups and downs to create a big success.
We are at Abbey Road for their excellent meal offer – with the return by popular demand of the shared starters – PLUS the usual free flow.
Some reprobates did not register until the last-minute last month – as a result your respected Excom has decreed an additional RMB30 donation to our charity fund for any registration/payments after the Tuesday before the lunch
*** The Porter Drinkers' Tartan (closest to our own colours)
David Carnegie was the grandson of George, a Captain of Bonnie Prince Charlie’s Life Guards, who took refuge in Gothenburg after the Battle of Culloden. In 1836 David bought a sugar refinery and a porter brewery. The colours of the Porter Drinkers’ tartan are inspired by the dark, full-bodied potion, with yellow hinting at a little sweetness and red the distinct “tang” drinkers recognise as the hallmark of a fine porter.
