Ninfield piper's busy Burns Night

The first was at the WRVS lunch in Hastings, when she piped the haggis in, addressed it, gave the Piper's Toast in Gaelic, and piped the haggis out.

Tricia then played a few tunes after the meal, ending with Auld Lang Syne.

The second event was the Mayor of Hastings' Charity Burns Night Supper held at the Royal Victoria Hotel in Hastings that evening.

She commented: "I piped various Scottish airs while everyone was going into the dining room. I then piped the haggis in to 'A Man's a Man for a'That'.

"The Toast Master for the evening, Jon Bartholomew, Town Crier of Hastings, addressed the haggis then he, and the Chef and I all toasted it, again in Gaelic. I then piped it back to the kitchen before enjoying an excellent meal.

"The evening was topped off by winning a raffle prize of a litre of whisky."
