Hello Rabble, another reporter to be heard from. The photo with Turpin and the lass under her kilt has a much larger story to it. As I was returning from the wash room, the group of FOUR of them stopped me to ask "the Question". They got about 6 different answers through out the night. Kilt checks were in order and more than one of us had out kilts felt throughout the night! It is really too bad that Grant was not there. He might of gotten his first "check".
It was also rather funny watching Turpins sporran be passed around and even better when he removed the flap and the lassies started wearing it as a hat. Funnier still is when one of the lasses asked Turpin if she could pet it while he was wearing it.
I will not relate the story of the chestnuts, however. As this is a family forum!
I will say that a great time was had by all and this was our largest gathering to date. I do hope it is not the last!
"A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon
