Well all the best plans go array!

Rotarians and friends struggled in the wind to put up the Shelterbox tent at St Columba’s in Brora to raise donations /sponsorship for Turkey and Syria — they turned their backs for a well earned coffee and that nasty storm Otto blew it down again!!!!

They have made it safe and will put it up again on this Thursday when Alistair Risk will hopefully be able to start his 2 to 3 week life as a refugee living in the tent and welcoming visitors for tea and a chat about how Shelterbox and Rotary are on the ground in both countries, ensuring those in need have shelter and help.

(Our picture shows Davey Macdonald and David Meikle with Alistair Risk and the flattened tent!)
