Hogmanay extra with recipes

...for Athol Brose and Tablet - Happy New Year!

…as above, do as Granny used to do at Hogmanay in her draughty castle in the Highlands: stay home in the warm with friends for a bite of Tablet and a fistful of Athol Brose (see recipes below). Never open the door to yellow-haired First-Footers until after midnight, try to turn in the right direction in the Gay Gordons and don’t tread on anyone’s toes in Strip the Willow. Remember to pass your glass over the water-jug in Speed Bonnie Boat and don’t attempt a solo demonstration of the Highland Fling. Yes. Well. Edinburgh has just cancelled all outdoor events owing to Captain Scott weather. Nuff said
