Scotch-Irish Day 2009!

Ignoring the gentle jibe at Jock regarding the "flat cap", am I correct in assuming that large quantities of "Scotch" whisky were consumed or were you in fact trying to "scotch" the rumour that kilts were an Irish garment?

Thanks, Bloke. I am always worried that I have mixed up the order of the pictures.

Looking smart and some wonderful carvings.

I only have experience of little cacti but they can still fall over.

Those bears are very popular in Colorado also. I have a few small bears at my house, nothing too big though.

Yes, since the bear isn't wearing a kilt, I think the flat cap will get a pass this time.

Well, back when they held the huge parties with a piper, there was a great deal of booze. They have become a dry household since, and this is the main reason the parties have dried up.

I don't drink, so not a big deal to me.

* Phil, I didn't explain that enough in the first post. No offence intended, and I apologize. Now that I realize that it is an offencive title, I have put a note in the beginning of the post explaining what I ment. *
