    Toronto Celtic Festival - September 13th

    It's a bit short notice, but this Saturday the 13th:
    The Beach Celtic Festival in Toronto.

    MacHummel will be a vendor, and I expect the SOKS will be around, but anyone else stopping in?
    I am easily moved for sympathy for dogs, far more so than for humans, because dogs do not understand. There is no way to explain that you will return, that the vet will make it all better, that they cannot go shooting today because that is not what today is about. They cannot work out that their misery is finite and will some time end, and so their misery is magnified.

    Bloody Hell! Same day as Chicago's!

    How can you be in two places at once when you really are nowhere at all?

    Perhaps we can attempt a synchronous toast....

    Not yet George, isn't it dreadfully hot and not to mention windy and wet in Florida?

    Now back to our regularly scheduled thread:

    So will there be a SOKS get together after, I'm at work until 7 but was talking to Pete about meeting up afterward.

    So what did you have in mind?

    Well I don't know dinner and all that entails. I have to go down to get a sporran from Pete after work so I was hoping we could maybe do something before everyone leaves Toronto.

    Well, after watching the forecast, I decided to stay down here and get some work down on the house (and maybe a kilt or two) instead of driving up there and walking around in the rain.
