July 2019 Outing to Ayr Races

Forty five members met on Waterloo Place on a rather grey July  morning for our trip to Ayr races.

Our coffee stop was at one of our usual haunts, MacKinnon Mills, Coatbridge. As we had an extra fifteen minutes, we didn't have the usual rush. Several of our members took advantage of the sales, including your chairman. 

We arrived at Ayr Racecourse in good time and the sun came out. It was a glorious afternoon. More than a few of us had winners - am not sure they were all down to knowing the form! My own preferred method is choosing by horse name or the riders' silks! (It worked!)

From there we headed to The Fenwick hotel where we enjoyed our high tea. the food and service was up to out expected standard.

We did have some further rain on the way back but it didn't spoil a cracking day out.

Thanks to Moira for organising.
