Andy Cameron, whose name is a byword in Scottish entertainment, was the guest speaker at the GROGS Christmas Lunch on 11 December. This was the second Christmas Lunch to be held at the new, permanent, venue of Loks restaurant in Glasgow and, once again, the attendance record was smashed. An unbelievable 141 GROGs (and 1 guest) were royally entertained, not only by Andy but also by the Chairman for the day, Hugh Dan MacLennan, resplendent in his Xmas sweater, and long term GROG, Bill Gardiner, who provided the musical accompaniment for the raucous community singing of the quite untrained GROGS choir! But it was Andy Cameron MBE who stole the show with a 40 minute comedy performance which, quite rightly, resulted in a standing ovation from the delighted crowd. Andy was the consummate relaxed professional. He knew what his audience would enjoy and he spoon-fed it to them in hilarious doses. There would be little point, in this report, of trying to repeat any of his jokes or stories because one of the main ingredients of Andy’s performance would be missing …. his perfect timing! Those who tried to write down one joke on their paper napkins missed out on the next two because there was no let up in his delivery. A huge success, an exceedingly funny performer and a gentleman to boot, Andy thoroughly deserved the bottle of famous GROGS whisky he was presented with at the end of a wonderful afternoon of good fare and entertainment..
