The Caledonians 63rd Burns night

**Freelander Sporrano** · 24th January 10, 06:51 AM

As many here know I'm the House chairman of the Caledonian society of Norway
Each year we have our traditional Burns supper at the OMS in Oslo.
Here are a few pictures I managed to take during the and before the event. I hope Oddern will post more as he and Sten Rune were also participants in the evening.

As I was busy during the evening with my duties as House Chairman I didn't get to take too many shots I hope Oddern will fill out a few blank spots

Great photos. Looks like everyone had a grand old time!

My question is: do all of you have some connection to Scotland, like some type of Celtic blood, or do you just enjoy the Highland attire? Just curious.

If I make it to Norway, and I really want to get there and xc ski, I'll feel somewhat at home.
