In response to the quickly growing supper, here's generally what we plan:

1. We'll have our own dining room if we all fit. If not, we'll take over the whole pub.
2. Dinner will be traditional. (I insist on haggis, but we will Americanize it with some hamburger added and offer another meat perhaps. Neaps and tatties, etc will be the fair.)
3. All traditions will be observed, e.g., piping in the haggis, address to the haggis, toasts, etc. (look it up here: http://www.worldburnsclub.com/supper...pper_intro.htm )
4. The pub will offer everything but drinks at one price. We'll run the supper ourselves. I'll serve as host for this one since I seem to be doing the planning. Ha.
5. Like a good Burns supper, it'll be loose, laid back, and fun. Lots of talk, foolishness, and poetry. Plan to take part in reading or--better yet--reciting. I'd love to hear someone reel off a good "To a Louse" with a brogue.
6. We're open to suggestions here. It's our party and we'll do what we like.
