Dedicated
today, to the people who made it happen.
Tomorrow morning we will be extending Balbirnie's traditional warmth of welcome, to Gordon McIntyre-Kemp, Founder and CE of Business for Scotland. Gordon has very kindly agreed to cut the ribbon.
Balbirnie’s 2017 Project of the Year!
We have very purposefully decided to open our new Drawing Room, tomorrow, on Friday 13th
October.
We could have chosen any date, allow us to explain:
NUMBER 13
The Number 13 is a karmic number
and is the number of upheaval so that new ground can be broken. The number
13 has great power. Adapting to change gracefully, will bring out the strength
of the 13 vibration.
Our 2017 project of the year is
certainly new ground for Balbirnie. ‘Wildflowers, Balbirnie’, is the single
most special item ever introduced to the house.
And that’s stated, since the year
1777.
(Main oil painting images will add after we open!)
13 reflects tradition, hard work
and organisation.
And that’s certainly what we all do at Balbirnie
House!
(Archie Forrest with daughter Maya, January 2014)
The 13 vibration is associated with
genius, trials and testing.
This is relevant in tribute specifically to all
those who have helped us, from across the span of interior design, trades and
crafts. Our sincere thanks to everyone who has helped. Osborne Heath, Bute Fabrics, Brintons Carpets, Charlotte James Furniture, Brilliant Lighting. And a very special thanks to our in-house crew of Andy, Duncan, and Craig.
Aspects 'born' on the 13th, at
outset reflect a love of working with hands. Translating into maturity, the
energy translates into fixing, mending, constructing and creating.
We look forward to serving you, our
guests, in this wonderful new area. We look forward to applying our love of
Hospitality, into creating so many Memories, for you.
Undeniably, the lucky character of
the number 13 has an impact on the date of Friday 13th. The positive energy
that is favorable to good luck circulates much more freely on Friday 13th, and
the date is conducive to positive events. The date is conducive to being
interpreted as one of the luckiest and happiest days.
For so many years to come, so many
guests will have commemorative photographs taken for milestone occasions,
beside ‘Wildflowers, Balbirnie’.
Our hearfelt gratitude to Archie
Forrest.
A project of a lifetime.
Ability to maintain such reinvestment,
is the living of a hotelier’s dream. And that ability is always created by our
customers. Heartfelt thanks to one and all.
Our working priority is on
safeguarding, maintaining and improving Balbirnie, as a Grade A Listed national
treasure. A labour of love which never ends.
And finally, I thank and congratulate
my very lovely wife Gaynor. This has been a 1 year long design project, which
has required such dedicated project management x
