Well lets see if I can do as good of a job as P1M does of his pictoral essays.
Making intros
Left to right, thescot, David(thescot's friend), and cgrinder 
More intros
cavscout int the saffron kilt, and gilmore in the Edenburough tartan kilt 
We take our seats and still more getting to know each other. The conversations were lively and ongoing the whole night.
southernscot, cavscout, and mrs cavscout 
cgrinder reads the address to a Haggis 
thescot opens the Haggis 
The Haggis is served 
thescot gives the Imortal Memory 
David gives the Toast to the Lassies 
Mrs cavscout gives the Response to the Toast to the Lassies 
And not kilt night would be complete without doing a Hamish pose.
Left to right, cavscout, cgrinder, nixphotography, gilmore, thescot, David, and southernscot. 
A great time was had by all.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank thescot, Mrs thescot, cgrinder, southernscot, gilmore, cavscout, Mrs cavscout, David(thescot's friend), and the fine folks at the Conyers Celtic Tavern. I had a great time with you all.

It looks like you all had a great night, wish I could have been there.

You gentlemen all look quite dashing, the lovely Mrs. Cavscout was in good company. It sounds like you all had a grand time. We here in Northern California were happy to share a toast and good fellowship with such fine people.
Cheers

Great pictures. Gimore's Argyle is very different... I dig it. What would you call that? "Wine?" Nice.
