    Hamish,

    If your buddy Jim is tuned into the kilt scene here in Palm Springs, I'm sure he's a member of the Scottish Society of the Desert. If so, I'm hoping he's planning to attend the Burns Supper on 1/26 at Indian Wells CC. If he's unaware but interested, send me a private email and I'll provide the info. I'd like to meet him.......it would be nice to know a kindred spirit here in PSP. You should be here now.................you Brits are getting everything for 1/2 price!!! I'm going to pay dearly when I do my QE2 crossing and 5 nights in London next October!!!!

    Cheers!

    No, RB, he will not be a member of the Scottish Society of the Desert - at least not yet. He has been over in PS only about a month and has been busy furnishing his holiday home. Jim actually lives over here in the United Kingdom, but plans to be in PS every year from November to about end of March. He has a number of non-kilting friends in PS and spends virtually all of his time with them as far as I know. He also relies on them for transport away from PS itself. In town he walks or cycles!

    We both have a toll-free video/phone link-up once a week (via a combination of Skype and JaJah!) so I will mention your kind offer to him. If he shows any interest, I will certainly PM you. Many thanks for your interest.

    Take care,
    Ham.
