Classic High Tea - 7 December 2025
Report and photos Jim Paterson 


From across Scotland - members from near and far

Wet and windy this year for the 40 crew members who arrived from  all corners of Scotland, for the annual High Tea celebration at the Royal George Hotel in Perth.A lot of stories and tall tales over our meal raised a few laughs while chatting about what is in store for 2026. Some new ideas also picked up from members so lookout for possible additional events to be added to our new year calendar.

Once again the Royal George Hotel in Perth gave us their large dining room, the room we have used for several years, as it allows sufficient spacing between tables.





It was good to meet our regular members and some new faces. A few of our committee members turned out with John Stuart, Tom Niven and Karen Wilson, George and Jean Shand joining us.

We talked of our planned tours for next year, starting with the Red Hackle in May. Organisers Ron & Jan Adam have the route drafted, part checked, and places to visit on route identified. Following on from this years Grampian Gallop, organiser George Shand is heading into the Ochil Hills in 2026. Starting and finishing at Macdairmid Park, home of St Johnstone football club in Perth. George has found some exciting roads across this landscape, ready for you to explore. Once again passing places of interest, to visit and enjoy.

In September we head into the Scottish border country. Organisers Ralph Forbes and myself have a route that promises some new roads to drive, many with spectacular views from the hilltops we cross. Once again points of interest on the way ideal to stop and refresh.

The Club wishes ALL our members and everyone who is a classic car enthusiast, a very merry Christmas and a really good fun Classic New Year.
