Hi all,

I hope the organiser of Czech Highland Games doesnīt mind that I post here some information about upcoming event this year.

12th Sychrov Highland Games go on from 24th of August to 25th August 2012. This event takes place under the kind patronage of Her Excellency Sian MacLeod,Her Majesty's Ambassador to the Czech Republic. The venue is on the Castle Sychrov, beautiful neogothic castle, located 70 km north from Prague.

Unfortunately, the information in English on the website are relatively scarce now, I hope they will be upgraded during the time. Last year there was admition fee for both days (Friday, Saturday) (ca 450 CZK = 16 GBP = 18 EUR = 24 USD) (or lower just for the main day - Saturday). The link to the event is here:

If you will have some questions, donīt hesitate to ask me, I will try to explain or translate them, although I am not the organiser. For example, this year there will be an attemt to set the record in "Czech book of records" for the highest number of men in kilt These Highland games are full of music events on the main stage, pipers competitions, Scottsh delicacies, whisky tastings, etc.

I hope I will meet some of you there in August
