You both look good. First time celebrating and you do two in one night,...you really know how to kick it off in style.

So you favor the "Two-Party System", eh? 
By the way, if a belt and waistcoat are worn together, they should be worn the way you have them, with the buckle behind the waistcoat.

I appreciate the vote of confidence for my belt with waistcoat. The point has been contested in several other threads and many seem to think it should never, ever be done.

But - but - but where is the gravy?
You actually eat haggis without gravy? 
Haggis should be served in a soup plate, haggis in the middle with mashed 'tayto and neap - both well creamed and buttered - to act as retaining walls, then pour on a thick rich, but unseasoned, gravy.
The haggis spices up the bland elements, the gravy tones down the taste impact of the haggis.

Did you say free drinks for being kilted?

Anne the Pleater | At the first event, there was gravy but the potatoes were not mashed. At the second event there was mashed 'tayto and neap - both well creamed and buttered - but no gravy. So between the two of them, York got it right?
