    So I've been thinking about this since it was posted and here's my thoughts:

    I think it might be fun and something quite different for some of us to attend a Burns night type celebration. I like the idea that was mentioned before... an informal address, munchies and dancing. I'm all for just a regular kilt night out or doing this because although I've heard it described, I have never been to real Burns night.

    I have never done any Scottish Country Dance but I would be content just socializing. I really enjoy watching Highland Dance performed (Scottish dancing videos on YouTube got me hooked, LOL) so that would be fun.

    Kilts I have...but none of the other traditional garb.
    I'm just wondering how I'd fit in.

    I can't speak about all places. There was another Burns dinner I went to where tie and jacket seemed mandatory. As to the one I had suggested, no worries needed about attire. I dressed as you've seen me, polo/sweater with the kilt, so you'll be fine the way you dress. At the last one, there were even quite a few guys there in p**nts

    Sorry, except for the scotch poured on the haggis, there was no booze.
