EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to January 1973 at the Citadel Hotel in Carlisle. The image captures a significant moment during a Burns dinner, where Mr. E. Markes, the esteemed manager of the Carlisle State Management Scheme, takes center stage as he prepares to cut into the traditional Scottish delicacy - haggis. Dressed impeccably in tartan attire, Mr. Markes exudes an air of authority and respectability as he wields his knife with precision and expertise. Surrounding him are bottles of whiskey, symbolizing both celebration and camaraderie among those gathered for this cherished event. This photograph not only showcases the customs and traditions associated with Burns dinners but also pays homage to Scotland's rich culinary heritage. Haggis, a dish made from sheep's offal mixed with oats and spices before being encased in sheep's stomach lining, holds deep cultural significance within Scottish cuisine. The atmosphere captured here is one of warmth and conviviality; it is evident that attendees have come together to honor Robert Burns' legacy while indulging in delectable food and fine spirits. NCJ skillfully preserves this nostalgic moment through their lens, allowing us to relish in the timeless charm of bygone eras. As we gaze upon this evocative snapshot frozen in time, we cannot help but be reminded of our own connections to tradition – how customs passed down through generations continue to shape our identities today.
