This past weekend was the Victoria Highland Games. Many of you are aware of my knitted accessories so the Wizard graciously offered me some space in his stall to "test the market". So off we go to beautiful Victoria.

On Friday evening, The Wizard and the Kilted Knome opened their home for a small gathering of rabble that included Thistledown and wife, Ruth, Macman and Mrs. Mac and the stunning Allison, Ian and Brenda. Burgers and brauts were the order of the evening along with a number of intriguing libations.



The infamous Maple Whisky.



Steve handles the grill.

On Saturday, we were off to the park to finish setting up in preparation for the hordes to follow.

Here I "hang out my shingle".



From this small table, the seeds of an empire are planted.



My first customer, Fred Blue. He purchased a set of garter ties and he is sure they are the reason he won his division in the heavy games!



The Three Amigos during a lull.



And finally, Thistledown helps me show off my brand new XMTS kilt by you know who.



It was a great weekend, the weather was good, the music was grand, the company was first rate.

I would like to thank Bobbi and Steve for their generosity in allowing me this opportunity and hopefully, in the near future, you'll see "Big Mikey Originals" as a paying advertiser right here.
