SEKS kilties for Xmas Parade

Saturday 12/5/09 we will have a hokey, hometown Christmas parade in Conyers. Why not join SoutherScot and me to be part of it? After the parade, we will probably convene at the Celtic Tavern for cattle reiving and lie telling. We may have a wee dram or two, but with all the kids on hand, we'll certainly have to behave.

Do you need a permit to hold a parade or just a couple bottles of scotch?

A couple bottles of scotch, and it's "We don't need no stinkin' permit."

If you can get 11 with pipes (the tobacco sort) you could go as 11 Piper's Piping!

After watching the parade, SouthernScot and I determined that next year we will definitely have a Scottish contingent in the parade. I even have a trailer we can use for the kids.

11 pipers piping is a great idea!

More on this next year.

Did you have a good time at the Parade ?? I know a MacGregor who has been known to facilitate those with cattle for sale on the quiet. I hope the single malt was smooth and of age. I will pm you in a few days to talk further
