It's a, " Come A' Ye "

Oh, and if me and the girls are wearing arisaids, I expect at least some of you in kilts

I'm sorry I don't have a kilt. Would a plaid do??

 

[Toddy]

I'm sorry I don't have a kilt. Would a plaid do??

Well, duh !
That's even better...........and you could help me belt other folks into some I'll bring along too

First time most of you will be able to use proper sharps with your national dress............here we go, a whole new range of shinies to show off
sgian dubh, sgian ochlas, dirks..........maybe a no on the claymores though..........welllllll, y'know.............

atb,

[johnnytheboy]

bow drill would be great, sharpening a knife on a waterstone would be something i wouldn't mind doing if anyone has one??

bit cold for the kilt right enough

 

[Dreadhead]

wouldnt mind coming along myself. and seeming as i wear a kilt everyday anyways (not touched trousers in such a long time) im sure ill fit in.

where is the site exactly?

 

[Graham_S]

I can run you through basic sharpening. Might not be the best weather for waterstones, they can shatter if it gets down to freezing.

 

[johnnytheboy]

I'll bring the hot water bottle

 

[woods_man]

[Dreadhead]

could somebody please send me the information for this etc

much appreciated =]

 

[wanderinstar]

I am sorely tempted to come up to this one. Has a date been sorted out yet as I would really fancy a true Scottish Hogmany.
Woodsman, you should have your Coccoon by then, so you won't need the bunkhouse.

 

[johnnytheboy]

Hmmm, I have some fireworks left over from bonfire night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Soloman]

Where abouts is the location.
Soloman.

 

[Toddy]

PM sent.

We haven't posted details on the thread yet because we haven't booked until we saw what sort of response we were likely to get.
I intend to let things run for this weekend and then add up numbers and contact the site.

cheers,
Toddy

p.s. I've re-opened the poll, could folks who would like to come but haven't yet voted, please do so.

[windward]

Didn't see this thread until now...was thinking of heading off camping for new year so with this running I'll probably be along...just not sure what date...probably from the 31st to the 4th.
