The Paisley tent’s usual Christmas bash will be one week later, on Saturday 17 January in the Tartan Rose. There will be a raffle, a quiz and a buffet plus an afternoon of nonsense and fun, reports Grand Sheik Janice Hawton.
Crowning Derek
Following on from successfully crowning David Tennant with the glorious SOD fez in 2022, I bring you a National Treasure, in the form of veteran actor Derek Jacobi. He was bemused, but the photographer said the fez was a very rare Laurel and Hardy artefact. Derek Jacobi is very friendly and funny.
