Well, you can guess that there was Great SEKS in Atlanta tonight. I'll post a couple of photos to whet your apetite, then I'm going to bed. I left the rest of them partying about 10:30 because I am old, I am a stick-in-the-mud, and because I have to preach in the AM.
The gathered rabble on the street in front of the Spotted Dog. ( a great pub, BTW)
David, SouthernScot, and I in front of the Celtic Tavern before departing for Atlanta.
Thescot and SouthernScot spent their time here.
We're not sure who the lass is, but Turpin had fun.
Contrary to popular belief, Mike (Spalsh 4) really is back home!
More later.

Another couple of pix before I hit the sack.
My bride, me, Mike, and Scott.
We even had our own master leather worker, Steve Fraser (CavScout)
We all behaved ourselve quite well . . .well, almost all of us.

Turp, what tartan are you wearing? I really really like that one!

That is the Gordon tartan in weathered tones.
It is really the SAME tartan as Southern Scots's WPG kilt, just with different shaded yarn (supposed to make it look "old" and "weathered"-> the real colors don't age that way though).

Yet another evening of great SEKS that left us all weak yet begging for more.
Thanks to Turpin for pulling this one together, and to everyone for showing up and participating. The Spotted Dog seemed to have the right ambience, not crowded, not so noisy we couldn't talk to each other easily.
So, shall we all see each other next on Monday, March 17, in Conyers for St Patrick's day? Other than those of us who are getting together on Thursday, March 6, for dinner at 6 at CNN (looks like just Turpin, Beowulf and me at this point) and then Flogging Molly? (See separate threat on this)
Don't forget, Monday, March 10, the Royal Scots Dragoon Guard and band of the Coldstream Guards are playing at the Fox Theater. Shall we get together for dinner beforhand?

MacWage is right, It's the weathered Gordon, a Matt Newsome box pleat
(#200). My most comfortable kilt.

Actually it's me wearing the WPG Gordon, and it was quite handy on the breezy cold of last evening.
Sorry you couldn't make it, but life does get in the way; it's what happens while you're planning something else. And thanks for noticing the WPG; it's a great kilt for the money, especially on cold nights.

Ok this may sound like a stupid question, but when you say WPG, what does that mean?
