    MMMMM.... you had to post that picture at the end of the day, when I'm hungry. I wish I could attend. But, a busy time of year for me, and a long way to go for a meal. O'Neille

    Robertson,

    If there is any way I can be there, I will be, but I need to sort out the logistics first as I would probably drive up, and that means overnight stays in each direction, somewhere in middle England, to be thought about.

    Then there's accommodation at The Ferintosh, or nearby? How are you fixed in that respect?

    Thanks for that, Robertson - much appreciated.

    I know that Derek (DWG69) has spoken with you and made a booking for the two of us to take one of your twin rooms for two or three nights and, of course, for The Dinner.

    Looking forward to this one already!

    You guys have NO idea how envious I am. Someday, when my kids are grown and I have money, again, I'm headed to Scotland.

    For now, I'll have to console myself by chairing the Burns Nicht here.

    Sorry I can't make it this year due to prior arrangements but I hope you have a great night. If you hold it in the future (as I'm sure you will) I'll make every effort to get up.
    Cheers !
