The village of Cardrona near Peebles was a new venue for Mixter Maxter. The rich subject of Railways opened up some great tunes and songs for us to work with. |

Haddington had forgiven me after the previous year's battle, so I calmed things down with a nice genteel topic: birds. It was appropriate because of the participants' bird brains.

Back to Peebles and a drop of the hard stuff: the theme was "the water of life", or whisky. However, we could only sing about it, because drinking would diminish our musicality.
