That has to be the most original Address I've seen yet, one year I'll get out there to see it for myself.

The Haggis Rap rules!

And the Mayor looked like he was really enjoying himself too!

That was absolutely splendid, wizard, awesome, marvelous and wonderful!

Already thinking how we can steal some of those ideas.

Gotta go make sure the darling husband has seen this.

Here I thought we were so original at the Nor Cal Rabble.

Oh well, our caps are off to you!

Be well,

Absolutely Brilliant!

Jake! I have got this great idea for next year's "Address to a Haggis"

Amazing fun

I wish I could have been there

I doff my plumed hat to Toddish MacWong!

Cheers

Jamie

This is one of the coolest events that I've ever heard of. Ours in Seattle is coming up, I'll be there, and I can't wait!
