Clan Monkey will be in attendance. (We are hard to get rid of.)

Best regards,

As I generally spend the weekends with my girlfriend down the Peninsula in Los Altos, this looks like a strong probability for us!

I will try to attend. If so, it will be my first Burns event! I will submit payment as soon as I can commit. Coincidentally, I used to live in Scott's Valley as a teen, and attended Soquel High School. Nice area!

This too will be our first Burns Night! Very exciting! Check on the way!

Gents, It would be wonderful to see you all there. The Nor Cal Burns night is not as "proper" as some, but it has it all: haggis, the toasts and recitations, and plenty of whisky. Kilt enthusiasts of all denominations (Orthodox to Modern) are welcome.

Best regards,

Jake

I and the Flame-Haired Celtic Amazon Goddess will be there

We will provide the Hall, smoked salmon, and a bottle of single malt

We look forward to seeing friends old and new there

Cheers

Jamie

Lift a glass for me. I'll be three thousand miles away.

If you leave now you'll have plenty of time to get here, then you can lift your own darn glass!!

And even more help, if you knit some of those fancy kilt hose along the way you could sell them at the event to cover the cost of your trip!!

If I come up with any more helpful suggestions I'll pass 'em along
