    Harpenden Highland Gathering 2008 Pictures

    The great day finally arrived and six of the rabble gathered for the event.

    I arrived early, at just after 9am (having got up at 4am!) so here a a few pics to set the ball rolling.

    The Highland Dancers were already performing.



    Although vastly outnumbered by the wee lassies it was nice to see a wee laddie doing his bit.



    And he was pretty good too!



    The dancing was accompanied by a piper of course.



    It wasn't difficult to work out the meeting point!



    Martin and His Lairdship Himsel - sporting Kilt #90 as promised!



    More to come both from me and the rest of the Rabble!

    Excellent pics Trefor. You were very quick off the mark there!

    It was a great day and a pleasure to meet you for the first time. I'll be adding pics to this thread shortly as I'm sure others will.
