We Made Music Each fortnight in late 2009, we had a musical evening for anyone who played an instrument or enjoyed singing or just liked to listen. They were held at alternate venues on a Wednesday evening in the Manse or Chalmer Court and were very successful evenings of informal singing and listening to the music with a cup of tea added in. We were all deeply saddened in 2010 when Janette Gibson (left) died suddenly. She will be greatly missed.
