First time I've heard the address in American; you all looked so good in the photos, I was sure you must be in Scotland (joke).
But at least Panache managed the whole thing from memory without notes, better than I 've ever done. Congratulations (and shame on those that had to read the words of Auld Lang Syne !!!).
Wish I'd been there!

Congratulations to all of you over there in sunny California. What a great evening you appear to have enjoyed. My especial congratulations to Jamie for his spirited rendition of The Address - one of, if not the best of, the many I have seen and heard across the years. Actually, I wish I had not seen the video - at least, not yet - as I am to give The Address at The Ferintosh Burns Night Dinner on Saturday ....... and I will be reading it! The days of my being able to memorize much more than my telephone number are over and, in any case, I am not a public speaker!!
But this thread is about YOUR Burns Night, and a splendid one it was. Well done.
[PS: You've done it again! A first - The 'Kneeling Hamish'! Great stuff, chaps.]
