    Caledonian Society of Norway, Burns Supper 2013

    Here are some pictures from the Cally's Burn Supper 26. January 2013 held at the Oslo Military Society's grand location.

    Some pics of me in hectic preparations before leaving for the Burns


    We met up at the Dubliner Folk Pub before the supper (Picture by Freelander Sporrano)






    Some are equipped more than others




    There was a great turnout of kilted gentlemen this year, but others wore their Bunad....


    and others had their uniform


    More to come.....

    A great set of pictures Oddern. Also I really like the Norwegian Centennial Kilt. It is a handsome tartan.
