    Thanks for taking those pics, Mikey. We had a really good time. It was great to meet you and Shelly. The band was really good: Kitangus - West Coast Celtic - is how they bill themselves. The Murphy's Stout was excellent, and we enjoyed spending time with everyone, and we look forward to the next time we can all get together.

    Thank you Mikey for the super photo-report. It is good to see inside Steve's new premises - I remember the old ones across the street so well. It was good also to see those familiar faces again - I have enjoyed the company of all of them, but not yours - yet!

    As for the double Hamish MkII.......... A fair try, but more practice is required!

    [PS: Belated 'Happy Birthday' wishes to Bobby - looking forward to meeting you and Steve again at the Storrington Gathering next year!]

    Big Mikey,

    What a fun night (the funny noses and glasses were inspired zaniness!).

    You all had a great time and thanks for sharing it with us.

    I do have one small question.

    Is your dear wife aware of the moniker you have bestowed her? I can just see the headlines...*

    Cheers

    Panache

    Kilted Man Murdered by wife with Cast Iron Frying Pan


    Langley, British Columbia, Canada

    A kilted man met a violent end last night while at the computer. The victim who police are only referring to as "B.M." was posting on a popular online forum dedicated to kilts. His wife had come up behind him and read over his shoulder. Apparently something he had written greatly angered her. It is at this time the woman in question, referred to by the police at this time only as the “C.A.W.F.H.” , went to the kitchen and returned with the deadly skillet. Police have not released many details of the crime scene noting that they are “far too gruesome for the general public”. Sources close to the Police have stated that on a positive note that the victim’s kilt was unharmed.

    Kilt Killer Konfesses

    When asked by reporters if she had reacted to her on-line name, the C.A.W.F.H. responded "No!! I told him that was the name I wanted to use. I finally had enough of him interupting my tv watching with his incessant whining! 'Are my pleats straight? Are my hose even? Is my hem level? Do these flashes go with this shirt?' "

    It is rumoured that Mrs. B.M. will plead temporary insanity and , after 23 years of marriage will get off with time served.

    This is CAWFH talking and I have a few bones to pick with you my lad. Firstly I did not brain the old bugger with a skillet, but rather I stabbed him with my new kilt pin. Only once, but in the ear and that was my only mistake. He died too fast....I should have tattooed his **** with it to get him off the chair and off the internet to do some work around the castle. Enough is bloody enough! OOps the paramedics were just in and he didn't die, so now I can cancel the emergency call to the plumber. Thank goodness, he may be an old one but he's the only one I've got and he's cheaper than a tradesman.

    David, I had every intention of bringing the new brown boots and the brown Freelander, but when I put them up against the kilt (you are correct Ron, it is Ancient Watson -Jura range from Scottishkilts.net) the brown just didn't match the colours of the kilt. Now had my Weathered MacKenzie not been messed up, it would have worked perfectly.
