Was a great day, with no rain until the end - although we left about 1530 as the boys were a bit tired.
The boys thoroughly enjoyed themselves and asked why I didn't have a vintage Rover like those on display...two reasons boys - they're called Callum and Shehan...
Imi found it very enlightening and has decided to start making kilts... I'm waitign with interest to see how well she makes them for me, I mean herself.
Was a pleasure to meet some of 'the Rabble' in the flesh.
I'll try to post some pics tonight.

A great day and didn't end there as I and my partner joined the Epping Forest Pipe Band in the local pub and were there relaxing and washing our dry throats until gone 9pm. So sorry I missed the group photo . Pic of me dancing on the small stage in the Isle of Skye kilt.

Brilliant photo journal John!
Sorry I couldn't be there.
Nice to see that first M6 sign - my Mother lives in Macclesfield!

Oh, I did forget to mention, I also bumped into 'rsvpiper' on the way from the car park to the games site. He was sporting his beautiful tweed Isle of Skye Kilt, hand-knit Argyll hose and fantastic Artificer hair sporran.
Not unlike this pic from another thread.
With his pipes on his shoulder, he unfortunately couldn't stop as he had a pressing engagement elsewhere but we chatted for a moment or two, mainly about his Kilt and sporran (honestly... you'd be jealous). Regrettably I forgot to grab a picture but it was nice to meet another well known friend for the first time.

Superb pictures John, thanks for the comprehensive coverage of this year's Harpenden, much appreciated by those of us who were unable to attend this year.
Was thinking of you all while working on my local heritage railway (kilted of course) yesterday.
Your second last photo with your little girl playing Princess Merida with her bow and arrow is particularly good.
Will you manage up to Glasgow for the World's next month?
