Even the wee ones were wearing kilts!


And they had a chance to toss the caber.

Now, I'm sorry to say - I didn't get any shots of the adult Athletic Events...

You see I was there to promote XMarks the Scot afterall...


Yes, that's Kiltman and myself at the tent.


Two handsome lads if I say so myself!

The Irish Dancers were a rousing success.


Unfortunately, later in the day Kiltman was arrested


Sadly he was lead away for stealing cows, wives, and whiskey...


I'm afraid these fellas meant business!


All in all it was a great day - and 1,500 folks came to celebrate our
heritage! Its just a shame Kiltman ended up in the pokey :rolleyes:

Great pics. Will we be seeing Kiltmans pic on a wanted poster?

[Robin]

Stealing cows and wives...uhmm...a few whiplashes. Stealing whisky???

Hang him!!!!

I wish to correct Phil's statement about why I was arrested by the 42nd Highlanders. It was for stealing Sheep, Cows and Wenching. My brave liege man (Hank Dickie) defended me as best he could crying "a Douglas, a Douglas" but finally I was taken away. When given the opportunity to defend myself I questioned my accusers and found that none could truthfully say they had not committed the same offences. So, they allowed me to go free. I hope this sets the record straight. Look out world I'm back!:rolleyes:

It was a wonderful day, now where are those damn sheep?

Kiltman is no a reiver, he was simply watching the livestock for the original owners.

My apologies to Kiltman - I'd hate to think I was spreading false rumors!

Superb photo. You're quite the photographer, Phil.

The Irish Dancers were a rousing success.

My second favorite, but all of them are superb.

Thanks for the excellent post!

Thanks for the kind words guys - it was a great day. The best part may be all the folks I talked to about XMarks including a few that really want to start wearing kilts - I sure hope they make it here for the for the great support and advice XMarks offers. I made up fifty XMarks cards to hand out and came home empty handed.

Like a said - it was a great day!
