Kilt night in NC?

**KiltedTurtle** · 13th January 06, 01:54 PM

I know Saturday would be the best for me. Does any one have any other suggestions on a place to meet up? I don't mind RiRa but just wondering if there are any others.

Charlotte is a bit far for me (I know Ian...I'm actually closer than you..but...).

It would cost me a full tank of gas just to get their and back. I'm not so sure about joining all of you.

The only way I might be able to do it is to combine it with a trip to one of the mall's out there. My wife needs her wedding rings re-sized smaller, and Charlotte is the closest store. But...I know she'd want to come along.

Have some thinking to do on this. Saturday night would probably work best for me, but I'd have to request it off from work just to be safe. I'd also more than likely drive back Saturday night, so it wouldn't be a long visit for me.

If you guys decide on a date, I'll let you know.

I can check around with some friends to see if there are some other pubs.
RiRa's is good but on a Saturday it gets really packed and
is a trendy place to hang out. So I'll call some friends and see.

Well I live outside of Boone so Charlotte is a little over an hour and a half away so Charlotte would be good for me. I also have family that I visit often in Durham (my home town) so Durham is also good. As a side note I was once an IT person in the triangle and got out of it four years ago and have never looked back. I know how competitive the job market is there and I feel for you.

Gents I will be at Ft Bragg in March. Not sure of the dates.
RDU area would be great for me.

UPDATE

I got a job in the Triangle that starts 2/13. I will be moving down to Durham next weekend.

One of my friends was so fired up, he immediately called Kelly @ USA Kilts and ordered a kilt for St Patty's Day celebrations. So for those in the Triangle, expect some sort of kilt night discussion for that weekend.

Otherwise, I'll be down to bring a tasty of Philly kilt nights to the Old North State shortly. It's a done deal.

Magnus,

Congratulation on the new job!

**Avonlea22** · 27th January 06, 03:35 PM

That's Awesome Magnus. Congratulations!

So then, I guess you'll be attending Raleigh's St. Paddy's Day parade? I'm planning to, as long as I can get the day off.

Well, what a plesent little suprise. I've been off the boards for a while, come back, and what's the first topic that catces my eye? A Kilt night in my own back yard. You know how to welcome a guy back :-). As for places:

A:1
B:3
C:4
D:2

Though i already have plans for St. Patric's, I'd still like to meet up with everyone.

Just a thought but how about something in conjunction with the Loch Norman Highland Games April 22? I know there is some sort of Irish place nearby where some members of my clan go on Sunday after the games are over. Make a day of it, come to the games and then get together on Saturday night. This is in the Huntersville area so it's not all the way into Charlotte.
