Thomas H. I'm counting on you and the bride. How's it looking?

BIG BOOBOO. I misspoke. The cost is the same as last year: $20, not the $15 I said earlier today.
The price covers dinner, dessert, and one shot for the toast to the haggis. (Let me tell you, in years past, the dessert alone was worth coming after. It has been bread pudding with a whiskey sauce that would make you slap your mama!)
Dinner will be the standard cock-a-leekie soup, haggis (or sissy food), neeps and tatties. I believe iced tea is included with the meal. I always drink water with food anyway.
The ceremonies will follow the meal, so if you have a favorite poem to read or recite, or a Burns song to sing, be prepared to share it.

Well, heck, Thomas. I was so hoping to be able to host you and your bride, but duty calls. You could always come over for our ST. Paddy's parade in March. Its likely the shortest parade in the world, but it's a great excuse to get dressed up and stand in the street drinking beer! int:
