    Local Motels

    These motels are all within a very few blocks of the pub. You really could stagger home if needs be, or pay 5 bucks or so for a cab.

    Jameson Inn of Conyers
    1164 Dogwood Drive
    Conyers, Georgia 30012
    770-760-1230
    http://www.jamesoninns.com
    Rate Range: $65 - $70

    La Quinta Atlanta Conyers Inn And Suites
    1184 Dogwood Drive SE
    Conyers, GA 30012
    770-918-0092
    http://www.laquinta.com
    Rate Range: $59 - $119

    Ramada Limited of Conyers
    1070 Dogwood Drive
    Conyers, GA
    770-760-0777
    http://www.ramada.com
    Rate Range: $72 - $99

    I recommend the Jameson or La Quinta as the nicest. There are other equally nice places, but these are literally no more than a few blocks.

    Burns Night Looking UP

    Seems I did the motel thing twice.

    It's been a long day!

    I will try to find a piper to join us since I am only learning and wouldn't think of trying the pipes in public myself.

    If any of you want to play, chime in.

    I would recommend these since they are within a very few blicks of the pub:

    Jameson Inn of Conyers
    1164 Dogwood Drive
    Conyers, Georgia 30012
    770-760-1230
    http://www.jamesoninns.com
    Rate Range: $65 - $70

    La Quinta Atlanta Conyers Inn And Suites
    1184 Dogwood Drive SE
    Conyers, GA 30012
    770-918-0092
    http://www.laquinta.com
    Rate Range: $59 - $119

    These are the nicest and you really can stagger there if you want, but a cab ride would be about five bucks.

    There are other very nice ones close by as well, Hampton Inn, Days Inn, and even the Hawthrone Suites golf resort if you are so inclined, but they would require a bit more driving.

    And a long drive after a Burns Supper is not always adviseable.

    Hmm, this might work for me, we have another Burn's Supper on the 20th. I'll talk to my wife and see if she thinks we can tough out 2 Burn's Suppers within a week. You know you have to drink a lot of toasts and consume a lot of scotch at the things.

    PS: If she knows I'm going to a Burn's Supper she won't let me go alone, she loves them too.

    Twa Burns Suppers? That's nothing! I'm going to FIVE Burns Suppers this year, and giving the Immortal Memory at three of them! :mrgreen:

    I wish I could go with you those five Burn's Suppers too, they are just so much fun. If you haven't been to a Burn's Supper you've missed out on one life's greatest experiences.

    You seem an expert. Any advice on pronunciation guides to Burn's "Address of the Haggis"?
