Hi all,

Just a quick reminder about 'A Measure of Scotch', a celebration of highland music and dance to be held at the Alban Arena, in St. Albans on October 11th. Tickets can also be booked direct from the Alban arena http://www.alban-arena.co.uk/content...-bookings.html

Come on UK Xmarkers, there's a great kilted night out to be had here!

I would if I could, Martin, but I can't! I'll be in London that afternoon and evening, meeting up with Howie Nicholsby and his team from Geoffrey (Tailor) & TFCK, and collecting kilt No.93!

Are you going to the show?

Take care,
Ham.

I am indeed Ham. I have booked at a local hotel for the night too. (Could do with a branch of Ferintosh in this vicinity I think!)

Sorry you can't make it, but collecting kilt No.93 is indeed of great importance! Only 7 more to the century!

Hallo. This is my first post since finding the interesting site.
I would like encourage you all to get to 'A measure of Scotch' - not just because I'm dancing in it - because it is a colourful, lively entertainment with about 150 dancers, pipe band, singers and musicians.
You can choose from two performances and St Albans is easy to reach by frequent trains and the motorway network.
See you there!

Hi Chapman, and welcome to the site!!
I'll be there to see you on the evening of the 11th.

You may wish to announce your arrival to the forum in the newbie section

Hopefully, we can encourage some more Xmarkers to attend. I have tried!!

Just back from this event. A brilliant, colourful entertaining feast of Scottish dance and music. The tiny tots were adorable too, waving to their parents from the stage whilst dancing!

On top of all that, I made a new friend - champanredbourne, a new visitor to Xmarks. Thanks for the coffee Brian. See you again soon.
