I would add that, by chance(?), there will be a musical festival of music of the Celtic nations to celebrate the ancient Celtic feast of Imbolec. This will take place a block away, starting at 7:00, with a pre-show gathering at St. Andrew's.
Ok I just spoke to Gilbert, it seams that we have hit a small bump in the road at the last moment with pulling off the Burns Night. It seams that some members of the group have had to cancel at the last minute, which has made our numbers a bit shy. But I would say that we still have a least 9 by my count that have said that they want to get together. So I say we still plan to meet up have a few pints get some thing to eat and take the night from there. If we want we can make it over to the Celtic Music event that is just a block away. The group putting on the event are having a preshow meet up at Saint Andrews that night to. So all who are still up please RSVP, tonight if you can so we can get a head count. Thanks Keith A.
I, for one, shall be there. Then I plan to head to the Celtic music festival, as does Bonnie Heather.
To anyone who may have shown up at Sanit Andrews after 7:00 I apoligize 5 of us were there waiting and when 7:00 rolled around with no one else in sight were went to the Music Fest on 46 ST. Im shore the cold weather may have kept many in my we will have a better turnout next time.
