Report
Martin reported on the April Manor: a walk along part of the Union Canal. Knights met at Lock 25, Fountainbridge before walk along Union Canal starting at Lochrin Basin. Derry, Martin, Dez, Helene, Daisy, Jackie and Nick as well as Steve were all in attendance. Points of interest included the bridge with coats of arms of Edinburgh and Glasgow on either side of it. Harrison Park was also visited on what was a beautiful evening. Knights and guests retired to the Royal Ettrick hotel where they were joined by Anne. Steve, Martin, Derry and Anne visited the Polwarth Arms and the Golden Rule. Thanks were given to Steve for organising the manor. Derry proposed a toast in thanks.
