Glamis Extravaganza


Glamis Extravaganza 2010 went very well today.

Barry Taylor, Chair of Taybus and his wife Sheila were attendance displaying their Rover in it's usual sparkling condition - Barry and Sheila looked no' bad as well!

Jimmy and Terry towed up the Museum's Horse Drawn Ambulance with the Ashford Litter and it was well admired. People were so interested in the history of our two exhibits and totally amazed at the fact they have survived so long in the condition they are in. Also showing an interest was Radio Tay Am presenter Bill Torrance who happily climbed aboard the ambulance driving seat and conducted an interview all about the ambulance and museum. Jimmy and Terry will be signing Autographs and sending out photos on request (for a small fee, of course!)

We were told lots of interesting stories today with many great anecdotes from the past. We also spoke to many people today who all want our Museum to go ahead and wish us the best for the future with our project. Speaking to so many enthusiastic people so keen to see us up and running only makes us more determined to succeed with the project.

View some photos from the event in our Event photos 2010 page.
Roll on the next event.
