Michael,

Sorry for being late to the game. I haven’t been on XMark in a while. Jim and I started this event many year back now... I wouldn’t miss it. I’ll get a head count for you soon, but at...

I'm back in the country just in time for this glorious event. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again, and meeting all the new folks.

Turpin, thanks for offering up the Gordon tent as a...

Jim, I'll do the Selkirk Grace again, and whatever else we need that goes unclaimed.

Sorry you can't make it Cav. You will be missed. Looking forward to the "Turpin Show" once again.

Come on...

Better make that 11:00 and 1:00 at the Lamont tent. The tent will be clearing out around 11:30 for the opening ceremonies, and again for a clan meeting around 2:00. Come by anytime Sat or Sun and...

I'll be at the Lamont Tent all weekend, so everyone stop by anytime and make yourselves at home. Turpin, we'll come find you if you try to skip out. Looking forward to seeing everyone again,...

Took me a minute looking at that map, but that's the one.

Shakespeare Tavern.... great place. We should plan a kilt night there some time...... but they might get a bit upset if we upstage them.

Scot

Keep me posted Turpin. I've got family in the area and it would make another great SEKS gathering.

Scot

Checking in from the south side of the city. Thanks everyone for the concern. Most of it passed north of me... a lot of heavy rain, winds and noise here, but not like the tornado that hit the city....

Excellent! Barring any unforeseen issues, I will be there. We should start planning our next events while we are there.... St. Patties Day and Tartan Day! Looking forward to seeing everyone again...

Ok guys. It's the week of, so we need an update on this SEKS event. Are we still on for the 23rd?

Scot

I've got it on the calendar guys. If I'm around, count me in.

Scot

If I'm gonna help plan this and assist in making the haggis, you know I'll be there Jim. Count me in and let me know what you need.

Scot

I'm going to try really hard to be there, but it isn't looking good at this point. I really hate the thought of missing it, so don't hold it against me if I don't show. I might see you lads...

Looks like for now it's just us Jim. See you tonight.

Scot

Wow Jim, what a complement. I'm sure my parents would agree :)

I'll see if I can dig up a red ribbon, but either way, just come to the Lamont Tent and ask for Scot. I'll be there all day Sat and...

No consensus on the German restaurant, but I'm sure lots of us will be going. I'm game. We can discuss it on Sat.

Scot

Looking forward to seeing everyone again and meeting the newcomers. When you come to the Clan Lamont tent, ask for either Scot or Jim, since most folks there don't know us as SouthernScot and...

As Cawdorian has said, let's meet at the Lamont tent at 1:00pm on Saturday. Of course come by anytime if you like on Sat and/or Sun. We will be there and the hospitality of Clan Lamont will be...

Would love to be there Turpin, but as luck would have it, I'll be out of town for business. Maybe next time.

Scot

I'd wear Lamont, if I could find it for a reasonable price. I agree. The problem is Clan Lamont wasn't a large clan to begin with, then we scattered after that last Campbell encounter.

I've got a lot going on, but I'm going to try to be there. Hope to see you all there.

Scot

Fado's on the weekend definitely works better for me. Love the place, and it's a wee bit closer.

I'll try to make it Cavscout. I'll pencil it in on the calendar and let you know for sure as it gets closer. Thursdays are difficult, but if I'm in town I'll do my best.

SouthernScot

A chance to don the kilt and raise a glass would be nice, but unfortunately Jim I cannot make it this weekend. We'll get together again soon. I really liked the pub in Conyers.

Scot
