I'm just firming up the babysitting arrangements but I believe that my wife and I will be attending.

[RevKjb]

I'll see what I can do to arrange a tour. I'll also need to firm up the #'s by the 19th at the latest.

Thanks,
Kevin.

[McMurdo]

Thanks Kevin, I'll try to firm up some numbers for you by then.

Hey Glen, Is that Scotch Drink poem available in English? I can't figure out what half of the words mean!

Rick if you look here it has a glossary of the terms, though perhaps you would like to do something a wee bit shorter this time, that site has all his works, I'd suggest something like this

On My Own Friend And My Father's Friend, Wm. Muir In Tarbolton Mill

An honest man here lies at rest
As e'er God with his image blest;
The friend of man, the friend of truth,
The friend of age, and guide of youth:
Few hearts like his, with virtue warm'd,
Few heads with knowledge so informed:
If there's another world, he lives in bliss;
If there is none, he made the best of this.

[Uncle Ricky]

Actually, I found the Scotch Drink poem in English. Should be good fun.

[McMurdo]

Sounds good I'll look forward to it.

Could bring acoustic guitar and do Braes of Killiecranckie O, and; or March On Bannockburn, doing both at our Burns night at lodge on 19th.

I think that would be great hope to see you there.
