    I will be there. They might chunk my kilted **** out of the place (or give it a good try....) but I will be there.

    (remember-I'm not bringing trews)

    On the other hand-add 1 hardhat, toolbelt with telecom tools, reflective orange vest-you have a kilted telecom worker. I could bring a 4' ladder and cones to add to the look.

    What to do, what to do....... :confused:

    Alan, Panache-got any words of wisdom on this?

    Looks like I'm going to be a hit-and-run early visitor, I have to be back at the house by 7:00. I'll bring Mike's work apron and Captain Jak's jacket.

    Ray,

    It is a costume theme for the evening, but wear what you like. The F-H.C.A.G. will be going as Jessica Rabbit!!! and I will be in full Highwayman garb*. Tim C. and his lovely lady Damaris will be in attendance. Our friends (and regulars) Monkey@arms and Walkerk will be off in San Francisco for a scotch tasting. Alan H. will be there, but briefly. CaptainJak should be there. Not sure about Michael Steinrok or Way2fractious. It is going to be a very atypical kilt night for us. Should still be fun.






    * I get to dress in kilts all the time, in contrast there are very few times of the year when it is appropriate to dress as a Highwayman ( Stand and Deliver! )

    First time (great)kilted ...

    Do you remember the first time you ventured into public in a kilt? Rivulets of sweat... heart palpitations... butterflies flying formations in your stomach...

    Well, wearing a great kilt in public for the first time is no different.

    I've got the plaid, with small drawstring loops sewn inside; an highlands shirt; wide belt; long, stringy, black wig to go under the gray tam bonnet; proper weaponry; and, of course, the skunk sporran. Still thinking on hose and footwear. There is no intention to do the period-accurate reenactment thing; just fun.

    The thought keeps occurring, 'Is Devil's Canyon Brewery is ready for such a thing?', but the recurring answer is, 'There will be highwaymen, pirates, and other unsavory characters, as well - perhaps even more over-the-top.'

    (Those butterflies on the wing really generate the g-force!)

    Alan,

    We will try our best to get there asap. The F-H.C.A.G. had another surgery put on her plate last night for today so she will be working very hard to get out the door of the clinic by 5:00.

    Motorman,

    We will toast your health. Hope you can make it next month (and for Burn's Night in January!)

    Switchblade,

    Pictures? Absolutely!

    See you at the Devil's Canyon Brewery!

    Cheers

    Waylaid again!

    It would seem that I have missed Kilted Friday once again, this time by my work getting in the way.

    I just don't see what the trouble is with a fire alarm panel that will not silence.......

    Gotta tell ya, the firemen that were there at the site were not impressed.

    One fireman even offered his Pulaski (fireman's axe) to silence the panel!

    Oh well, it's 10:00 p.m. so I don't think I can change and get there in time. Bummer.
