Ayr Branch BCSS
January 2008 Meeting &
Plant of the Month Competition
Texas & Mexico
We started the new year with a slide show given by Hamish McKelvie with slides that were given by the Lawrie family, after the death of their mother Edith. The presentation was called "Texas &Mexico". The slides showed various trips made by the late Ian Lawrie. Even though the slides were dated they still showed a very interesting travelogue. The plants and books were auctioned off to members last year.
