HOWARD DONALD REMEMBERS VICTORIAS AND MARDI GRAS




TAKE That star Howard Donald says he used to bring a hire van to Scotland to perform tiny club gigs in Glasgow with his band  - but he’s looking forward to a far more stylish visit DJing at Ingliston Estate and Country Club this month. 
The singing and dancing star who is currently on a world tour with his famous Back For Good bandmates has only a week off in between arena dates, but he’s chosen to come to Bishopton for a party day with lunch and fizz on Sunday September 29. 
Howard, who will join 500 revellers at the £55 a head party between 2-8pm explained: “The first time I came to Scotland was for one of our tours we did with Take that, and it was with these two guys, these promoters, and we did something like five clubs over the course of four or five days. I think we did this place called Victorias. Does it still exist? At least we didn’t close it down. And there was another where the dance floor came up and we were dancing and singing on it -the Mardi Gras.”
“So we did like a club tour, and we went all around Glasgow, and it was such a blast. It was so cool, so good. We were in a hire van, that we used to drive everywhere around the country, so we drove the hire van from Manchester to Scotland. It was like a road trip. It was an adventure, and we didn't know what was going to come from day to day.”
Bosses at the stylish Ingliston Estate and Country Club in Renfrewshire, just twenty minutes from Glasgow, are laying on a more lavish experience for Howard’s visit this time round. 
And the star, who ends his UK shows with the lads in Leicester on September 22 before heading off to Poland in October can’t wait to spend some of his precious holiday time in and around the stylish Scots estate which also welcomes former TOWIE star Mark Wright to play a Halloween DJ set with two course meal, dancers and a glass of fizz on arrival on October 26 from 6:30pm until 1am, and JLS and Hit List star Marvin Humes to DJ at Ingliston's Day Club, the ultimate party on November 10 for £45 including a delectable lunch and fizz on arrival.
Ingliston who are also hosting a spooky family rave on October 13 have played host to Denise Van Outen, and Judge Jules in past months in their purpose built Grand Marque, the biggest Indoor Wedding Marquee in Scotland, which cost a whopping £3.5 million to create.
The idyllic 90-acre Renfrewshire estate, called in specialists to help with the awesome build which also boasts a super amped state of the art sound system, glittering chandeliers, wall to ceiling fairy lights, and bespoke flooring.
A gold-plated bridal suite and gold finished toilets for guests also adjoin the luxurious draped venue which has its own separate VIP entrance and a separate green room for any performers.

TAKE THAT HIGH ROAD ON THE BONNIE BANKS


TAKE That's Howard, Gary and Mark have been enjoying some chill time time on the Bonnie Banks of Loch Lomond in between their hot Scots dates at the SSE Hydro.
And after seeing a mob of female fans working for them outside their hotel Mark Owen joked that they got a bigger crowd there than at their Hydro gigs.


The trio were staying at the swish Cameron House hotel on the outskirts of Glasgow and were welcomed by fifty female fans who had waited to see them since the early hours of the morning.
And although the Greatest Love stars chose swanky Maybach Mercedes to travel in, they were nothing compared to the cars including Ferraris, Aston


Martins and Bentleys that were from the luxury rally also being held at the hotel.
Mark said: "There are more people here than are going to be at the gig tonight."
Gary and Howard also waved to fans as they waited on their cars.
Howard had to wait so long for his car that he mimed getting into it before it came.


The lads played a succession of nights at Glasgow's SSE Hydro and managed to have some chill time this morning with an early walk around the grounds.
