Yesterday

**Derek** · 3rd December 06, 07:20 AM

Yesterday we had organised to do a Ceilidh/Cabaret in the church hall by us to raise money for the local Guide Dogs for the Blind. It was a great night, a really good turn out and we managed to raise £658. Earlier in the day the wife went to town to see if there were any (clothes) bargains. She actually returned with a modern/clubbing type tartan skirt. I said whens you gonna be wearing that .. she said tonight and all the other gigs .. I thought I was the only tartan member of the band .. sigh! Here's a couple of pics of the night and the bargain.

Now Les, the other singer in the band intends to go and get one ... that'll only leave Gordon being the only one in !

A few pics of the hall

Theere were several guide dogs there as well as puppies in early training .. they were all trying to play with each other and generally cause havoc .. they were the stars of the night, they were all brill.

A little cutoot pose with the 'bargain' hunter

A footnote ... I meant to say, there was quite an elderly lady helping to do the raffle .. when I passed her the first time she stopped doing what she was doing and came up and said right in my face 'I want to know whats under that'. I said 'I like a lady who's upfront .. but do you mind warming your hands first' .. we both started laughing, as did several others who heard it all.

She will look the part alongside you in your cilt. I guess Gordon will have to go along with the band's new tartan image.

Derek, what's taking Gordon so long? And tell Elaine she looks a million. A great find, although if Les bought one the same length, she would redefine mini-skirt!

My wife and I often get dressed up and go out. Both of us in some form of kilts. What wonderful comments come from every one. I'm very proud of us, we really look good for 60+.
