    Don't worry Brian... even I couldn't get in WITH several members reccomending me (I'm not Scottish enough). There ARE several members of the Philly St. Andrews who are very nice guys... but I know the "barrier to entry" is a bit steep for people on the outside looking in.

    We'll start our OWN Scottish Society out here in the burbs. We'll go to bars and wear kilts and drink to recruit members. We'll call them "Kilt Nights" and we'll do it once a month or so. Heck, we can even celebrate Robbie Burns day with others in kilts!

    Oh wait... we already do all that. ;)

    Wow, that's amazing, in Australia St.Andrews, Caledonian Societies etc. are all suffering from lack of members and so new members are really welcomed.
    For most clubs, more members means more support and more money.

    Maybe they are swamped with members and getting fussy?

    Now this is a club I can be proud to be part of! Thanks Rock!
