    I'm looking forward to the event. If the layout is similar to last year, it's hard not to run into each other.

    I missed last year due to work, assuming a similar layout as two years ago, I won't get lost

    I'm flexible either way. I may very well arrive before noon, so just give me a call or send a text message. I will be wearing either Sinclair Hunting Ancient or Lamont Ancient...

    Ok, I got an email from the mayor, can we all meet him inside by the front entrance for a few pictures? @DyerStraits @Mikilt @Sample m @sbevans @McFarkus

    I'm going in the same attire as burns night due to online purchases not getting here on time

    Synchronize Your Watches. I'll be wearing something fairly Wild And Crazy--it's the weekend.

    Here are pics from the event, I had a great time... As did my boy! Shame his kilt is too big yet, or he would have been kilted too, he even asked me "daddy, I want to wear a kilt too!"

    A big thanks has to go out to mayor McLeod for putting on this event, every year it gets bigger and better!!!
