Fully Kilted Out

[backblip]

Off to Glasgow today for a Hogmanay Ball to celebrate the New Year, a good enough excuse to get all dressed up. This is me and my neebur Finn at the start of the night; the photos taken later on have us slightly less elegant looking after a 5 course dinner and accompanying drink that took the best part of 3 hours to get through.

Brought in the bells to the accompaniment of some dodgy pipers and a ceilidh band whose guitarist really wanted to be in another band (dancing to the Gay Gordon's whilst there's a screaming guitar solo going on was a bit odd). Samantha is still recovering from the flu and it didn't help matters when wee Jimmy Krankie wound her up when she was in the ladies. Sozzled minor celebrity getting ideas above her station apparently, told Samantha she should pick on someone her own size...

A pretty knackering day all in, and was so glad to get to bed at semi-reasonable hour.

Hope you all had a great Hogmanay. Cheers!
