The Snowdrop Festival ran officially from 1st February and ended on 15th March, but no-one has told the snowdrops, which are still in full bloom in the woods near Duff House. (As well as listing places where displays of snowdrops can be enjoyed, the festival seems to have served as a peg on which to hang a variety of events whose connections with snowdrops seem, to put it mildly, rather tenuous. Duff House's offering was an exhibition titled 'What's the War got to do with us?' and other events included a Scottish Opera tour and a Valentine's Day dip at Peterhead Lido!)
