Scottish Festival

[Lady Rae]

Looks like PC and I will be there...possibly with one or more of the Riblettes

[Capt. Bacardi]

Soo, do we have to pre-order tickets or can we pay when we get there? Also, are they sticklers on flasks, or are we tailgating some Scotch? I just don't think it would be right to be at a "Scotish festival" with no Scotch.

Get your tickets there.......and I see and hear nothing the second part of the question... 

[Lady_Lily]

Cash may be important FYI. I can't remember really...but I recall it being important maybe.

For me this is strictly a buy it at the bar event.  As will be all the faires I attend this year.

That's what hip flasks are for...

regarding the Scotch issue, the fairgrounds will not allow us to serve it. They feel uncomfortable with the liability issues that hard alcohol might create. With that in mind...please to not let any board or committee members or the deputies see those flasks-you will be asked to leave...

but knock yourself out in McCracken Pub!

[Baron Doune]

Yup.

Going to be fun Peggy!

[DeadBishop]

Okay, we'll play nice.

Ladiedragon was talking about maybe showing up for a while. I guess we better look at getting tickets then. guess not

[Baron Doune]

I am so going to do the caber toss...yup.

Little one.  Small telephone pole.

or maybe the haggis toss?

Belly up boys.  Money talks etc...

We were thinking of doing a cameo appearance with our old group Clann Tartan, but Beth's fighting an infection related to her last surgery.

If this is the event I attended last year with Kael (had a marvelous time!), it was a CASH ONLY event with no ATM on the premesis.  Now they may be getting one in this year, but the closest one last year was a couple of blocks away at a gas station. 

Can someone please renmail me the site info.  Seriously not myself these days.  Can't keep track of much going on.  Mike comes home Friday so I doubt he'd be up for a whole day out but the boys may want to go since they heard Kael talking about it so much last year.  That'd give VV a chance to settle in a bit.

remember... wondering... come get me... thanks.

MG's correct there isn't an ATM on the grounds. But many of our vendors will take plastic and if you know it ahead of time and bring cash, you should be just fine.
