Our theme for the first storytelling session in our usual venue of The Woolpack, Tillicoultry of September was “Secrets and Lies”.
We began by sharing some secrets or lies of our own, which promoted lots of discussion and sharing of memories.
Our first story of the evening was a traditional Irish tale, “The Children of Lir”.
The second tale was “London again!”, a traditional Scottish story.
Next, we heard an original poem written by a long-term member of Hillfoots Tales, “Secrets”.
Our final offering of the evening was “The Husband Who Lied About his Happiness”.
It was another heart-warming evening which raised all our spirits.
