    A ceilidh in Glasgow

    Myself and Laura headed to a ceilidh in Pollokshaws, Glasgow for the Glasgow South candidate adoption. T'was a great night - good food, lots of dancing and we met some rather interesting people!
    There were 4 or 5 kilts, including my own - which isn't too bad!

    There's no dancing pictures of Laura, as she only took pictures as I was dancing... but she did get up a couple of times - I swear!

    Those of you from the UK and perhaps around Europe may know of Mikey - who was in Big Brother a few years ago. He is well-known for rightfully speaking his mind and not allowing his disability to stop him having a great time! Here is a picture of me and Mikey outside the burgh hall

    Dancing!


    It's not what it looks like!




    That's all folks!

    It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

    Looks like a nice outing for your new SNP tartan and Nicola Sturgeon looks like she was enjoying herself too!

    Ceilidhs are fun

    Yes a Scottish ceilidh is a lot of fun, as your photos certainly show.

    Kind Regards,

    David.

    I just found another one - that I'm in (a tiny bit!):

    Sign of the times huh? Going to a ceilidh with only 5 people kilted. What a shame. Glad you enjoyed the evening and hope people take a leaf out of your book next time.
