    I haven't replied here about kilt nights for a while because Christopher may have to go out of town. We're trying to see what happens with him before we commit to any events. Hopefully we'll know soon enough and I'll send him over here to help pick out a date/s and location, etc.

    Also, is there a dress code for the gentlemen who attend?
    Yes we usually make reservations for a party room, so in the next week or so, there will be a call-our for who's going so we can give the place a headcount.

    While kilts are preferred, they certainly aren't mandatory (no reverse discrimination here!). I would say about 25% of the men are not kilted.

    All right, if I have a kilt ready to wear by then, I'll be kilted. If not, I won't. Keep us informed. Or make us all join the mailing list; whatever.

    Hey, I've been to the Scottish Invasion. So is anyone going to the Plaza Pub this weekend?

    Dean, do I know you?

    I'm interested to see that place. What's it like inside?

    It's a small cozy little pub; if you take a date, watch where you put her to sit because sometimes the guys don't close the restroom door and depending on where your lady is sitting, she may get an eyeful. The pub is divided by the bar; with a pool table on one side (and ladies' restroom), the stage and tables and men's rr on the other side. It's decorated quite nicely with Irish shamrock wallpaper. Sound system is really good and the owner and wait staff are very friendly.

    I'm not sure, your avatar looks familiar. But I have to tell you that I'm cursed with a terrible memory for both names and faces. It takes awhile for my brain to become imprinted.

    I've only missed the 1st Scottish Invasion, and only a couple of the Rampant Lion picnics. I'm not a member of any clan or other group beyond the TSFH&G e-group (and here ofcourse).

    Your avatar is so small, that these poor old eyes can't see it that well. We usually attend the RL picnics; we run around with the Cameron clan and hang out with the MacDuffs and MacClellens even though Barb and I are actually Macphersons. We have the cool truck with the Saltire topper.

    I got my first kilt from y'all at Highland Moon. 8 yard Lamont. About 10 years ago if I'm not mistaken.

    As I was perusing the fridge recently, I noticed there was a wedding announcement on it. Well, okay, I'd seen it before, but what I suddenly noticed this time around is that it's for the evening of July 26th: the last Saturday in July. It seems like everybody I know suddenly decided to get married this year, and I've been to less than half of the weddings I could have attended, but I was (and still am) looking forward to attending this one. It's a tough choice, but I'm thinking I'll have to pass on the Scottish Invasion this time around.
