Come and kickstart your North-East Scots! Tried and tested last year we are back with teachers Jamie and Aidan and a weekend of Doric.
July 4 · 5:30pm - July 6 · 1pm
Just like last year we have two fabulous teachers from Banff Academy to teach us to speak Doric or North-East Scots. It will be fun and informal. We invite everyone to speak as much Doric as they can from the start. Hopefully there will again be a cultural experience in the evenings. We were a very diverse bunch last year and look forward to doing it all again! The whole of the Portsoy Sail Loft will again be ours thanks to generous support from the Doric Board. Muckle thanks!
