    Nottingham Scottish Association Burns Night toast.

    I've only recently discovered the Nottingham Scottish Association in Nottingham,UK and after attending a couple of their Friday evening Scottish Country Dance classes, attended their Burns Night dinner. A formal affair, but it did give me the opportunity to dig out my 44 year old Montrose doublet for around only the 4th or 5th time ever as my black argyll jacket, worn every Sunday at school is definitely very second hand.

    However I've never attended a Burns night where the toast was raised by the men, whilst standing with one foot on their chair and the other on the table. I just managed to take a picture of the gentleman opposite me whilst rocking on the soft cushion of the chair and attempting to hold both camera and glass steady!

    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!
