Ah, I thought something of the sort must have happened! Thanks for that information. I shall make a note in my diary to remind me to check it out next year so that I can put in an appearance.
Also, back in the 1960s and 70s, there used to be The Hertford Highland Games - I danced there too - but I've not heard of that event in recent years. It could be that Harpenden's "Gathering" is the only one of its kind down here in the South.
