Friday 9th April 2010: I mentioned last week that members of Loughries Historical Society (Ulster Scots) - a group that I am a member of in Newtownards, had received an initiation to visit the Mayor of Ards in his Parlour at the Council Chambers.

Loughries had collected £400.00 for 2 x charities - Cancer Research UK (Mayor's Charity 2010)and Loughries Charity for 2010 - The Renal Unit Ulster Hospital Dundonald. A third cheque was also presented, this was also donated to the Renal Unit Ulster Hospital Dundonald - by Ards Chosen Few RBP 290 (A Preceptory in the Royal Black Institution) of which I am a member.
It was a very enjoyable evening and our group were well received and entertained by the Mayor Cllr Billy Montgomery, himself an Ulster Scot enthusiast.
