If she has not already found it she should take a look at the Haven at 3 Perkins St in Jamaica Plain. I go there sometimes. My daughter and I have been there many times. Great place.

Hello. I have a lightweight Black Watch in a synthetic fabric. It hangs ok and the pleats swish. It is just not a heavy weight fabric and the straps and buckles are insubstantial. You can have it...

Nice, Alex. It will be nice to see how they do in the next years.

Interesting. Thanks for posting that.

I have the kilt hose book. WELL worth the price.

Bravo Alex! That looks like wonderful fun.

Wow. Amazing, isn't it? I passed 7 years recently. Seems like it has always been so. Congratulations.

If the date is right I could get to a southern NH location.

Bravo. Great photos. Thank you.

Interesting to think of. First one is always first: The Book and the Rose
Others would be:
Babette's Feast
Whisky Galore
Saving Private Ryan
Jonny English

Looks like a great time. Thanks for the pictures.

Very handsome tartan

Wow. You've really captured the spirit and beauty of the region. Great photos and a great story. Thanks for putting this all together. It is so good that you had this time. Just WOW.

That was lovely. I didn't see anything I'd call a grimace. The cellist was playing and loving it. It is very common for cellists to go through a variety of expressions as they play. Thanks for...

Wow! Early in the season. It could be chilly. Certainly will be a nice place for it. Looks like it will be on the beach? Sand in those gillies. I have it in my calendar. Thanks for the heads-up.

I haven't had white pudding yet. I loved all the food I encountered in Scotland but Turnips. Still can't get them down without gagging.

I like Irn Bru. It is my usual when not cider or beer in Scotland. I also like marmite. And black pudding. And haggis.

It is an experience like no other. Highly recommended.

Sorry to have to miss it this year. I will be in Vermont. Have a great time and see you both soon, I hope.
