Christy....come on down!

Actually, it is one huge party. People come from Scotland and surroundings.

It does get out of hand though because it becomes quite the drink fest with all the beer tents.
Then, and only then, at this point in the Highland games does the mystery of 'what are you wearing under your kilt' get revealed.


Then, of course, there is the Muscle Men Competition. The size of some of these men! I never knew they could make kilts that big!!! They toss hydro poles, whip canon balls (or whatever you call them...) across the field. Anyways....very interesting.

bundylee....Scottish accents do leave someting to be desired!

Yes, but I love seeing the big, bad athletes wearing kilts that are lavender, pink and green. I forget what family this tartan belongs to, but it was the funniest thing, a big guy in a girlie kilt!

Debby - Oops!
I'd go edit it, but it's too funny now!

We have one company that we write on where the Chairman is Greek and the CFO is Scottish. On the quarterly conference calls, each time either of them speak it is INEVITABLE that someone says "I'm sorry, could you repeat that please?" to just about everything either of them says. LOL!

Lhezzza, It's your fault. The least you can do is help me pick them up!

Ok, next time we road trip with Mr. Cat, Scotland better be on the itinerary! Is it warm in here? I never paid attention to men in kilts before Lhezzza posted that picture.

Leslie, I'll fold out my futon for you. I am not sure exactly where Ed lives, but I'm sure we can find out. It may take hanging out at a few bars, but I'm sure you're willing to make that sacrifice.
Sorry, no Keanu or Vin in the vicinity.

I guess this thread is showing that we are obsessed with men. Maybe it's time to resurrect that thread with all the yummy guy pics from a few months ago. . .

Brenda, that's a good idea. Should we start a new one or continue the old one? Here's the old thread for anyone who wants a little more eye candy.

Calling All Ladies!

Edit: Just looked through the old thread. *drool*
But there are quite a few of the dreaded red-x boxes.
Anyone up for a new thread?

How could I forget to include this?

KALEIDOSCOPES! I collect them! (Most of them are in storage)

They're SO much fun, and I have funny ones, fun ones, and really beautiful ones. I LOVE them!!!!

...I was digging around looking for one of our Winter coats under the bed and found one of my boxes of kaleidoscopes - and this thread popped into my head. How could I forget to include this?
D'oh!

Besides - there are so many "new" members here - maybe they'll chime in too!
