The big weekend has been and gone and what a rip roaring time we had.  There were loads to see and do.  Our stand was in the Heritage tent and we also had the big stage, so when visitors were not seeking their genealogy or learning about traditional music and events, they were bobbing up and down, to drums and song.  TWTC took 15o intrepid highland smugglers out into the Dukes woodland, where we all narrowly escaped the exciseman.  Children’s workshops were a highlight for our younger visitors, playing theatre games and learning theatre skills.

An evening gathering of 100 black tie guests saw TWTC startle the diners between courses as we took them back in time, to a siege where we surrounded by horrible hairy taxmen looking to burn us all if we did not give up our whisky.  No chance of that, the taxmen were overcome and the evening was saved.

A great event with loads to do – lets see Spirit of The West 2009 be the first of a great annual fun family day out.
