    Tartan all round!

    I was at a ceilidh tonight for David Kerr (standing to be a MP next month)... was a great night! Lots of dancing and a free bar - which is also useful!
    I was so glad I turned up in semi-formal/semi-casual wear with a regular shirt, a kilt and my day sporran. 2 other guys were wearing the same sort of thing - and then David was wearing his Kerr kilt which looked great!

    Here's a pic of me, him and my lovely girlfriend Laura. I bought her a Graham of Menteith (Plaid) dress. Tartan all round!

    It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

    You all look great, glad you had such a good time, and you're dressed perfectly for the night it seems.

    Thanks McMurdo!
    I'm just catching up with both the loss of energy from dancing and the constant alcohol! I forget what whisky it was... but it was gooood!

    Great look. As my own pics will testify, I much prefer casual myself. Laura's dress is nice as well. Nice one!!
    Best Regards John

    Glasgow NE by-election. It's pretty big because it was Michael Martin (former speaker)'s seat.
