<div class="content"><p>Our Honorary Patrons take 5 minutes ... to tell us more about themselves, what's jamtastic and about the lack of elephants in Blairgowrie led to a new vocation!</p>
<h2>Claire MacDonald - Award Winning Cook and Food Writer, Jampionship Judge 2011</h2>
<p><strong>My name is</strong>..Claire Macdonald</p>
<p><strong>My favourite jam flavour is</strong>..gooseberry and elderflower, then raspberry and lemon jelly</p>
<p><strong>My most memorable eating experience on holiday was</strong>..my sister’s 60<sup>th</sup> birthday dinner in France-black risotto with tiny tender squid</p>
<p><strong>One thing I am very good at</strong>..eating!</p>
<p><strong>One thing I am very bad at</strong>..doing arithmetic.</p>
<p><strong>The most surprising thing that has happened to me</strong>..having 4 children, many years ago!</p>
<p><strong>When I was younger I wanted to be a</strong>.. cook!</p>
<p> </p>
<hr/>
<h2>Laurence Blair Oliphant - Cheitain of Blairgowrie & Rattray Highland Games</h2>
<p><strong>My favourite jam flavour is</strong>..Vegetable Marrow and Ginger. (Raspberry close second)</p>
<p><strong>My most memorable eating experience on holiday was</strong>.. A chateaubriand steak that I shared with Jenny on the evening we became engaged in 1973. (This was at Huntingtower Hotel so we were not strictly 'on holiday' )</p>
<p><strong>One thing I am very good at</strong>... Growing beards.</p>
<p><strong>One thing I am very bad at</strong> ... Making beds.</p>
<p><strong>T</strong><strong>he most surprising thing that has happened to me</strong> ... Making a brief appearance in Rob Roy - the Liam Neeson version.</p>
<p><strong>When I was younger I wanted to be an </strong>... Elephant Trainer. There was little scope for this in Blairgowrie unfortunately.</p>
<p>Our thanks to these very special people, both a have a fantastic passion for their communities & their heritage, & are both "jam" good fun!</p>
