|
|
Here is a great evening the rugby fans amongst you and in aid of a couple of very good causes. Glengoyne Auld Enemy Dinner Friday 3 February 2012.
Glengoyne is to host a new sporting dinner in Edinburgh. Designed to become an annual charity event staged alternatively in Edinburgh and London the night before the game, the Glengoyne Auld Enemy Dinner has been brought to fruition by several Scottish and English internationalists from across the decades, joining forces to raise money for Help for Heroes and The Bill McLaren Foundation.
Open to supporters as well as rugby legends, the first event will take place on Friday 3 February 2012 at The Balmoral Hotel in Edinburgh. Scotland and England captains from the past 40 years are already confirmed to attend, including Jim Telfer, Finlay Calder, Brian Moore and Matt Dawson, and countless Calcutta Cup veterans.
Glengoyne is honouring the occasion by releasing a limited edition Glengoyne 1990 Single Cask bottling, proceeds from which will go to the two chosen charities, Help for Heroes and The Bill McLaren Foundation. The limited edition bottling will be available from the Glengoyne on line shop from mid January.
It should be a great evening for a great cause.

The fact their site has a picture of Gavin Hastings that is in black and white certainly makes me feel old! | I bet you even remember watching the snooker on TV in black & white  |

The Glengoyne dinner looks a great night for a bunch of rugby fans, i see tables that seat 10 are available at the dinner for £1500 and all for a good cause. Has to be one of the better whisky promotions i have come across, good luck to them i hope it is a big success and raises loads of cash. |
