Just to wish one and all a very happy tartan day. This time last year give or take a few hours we were tying the knot in NYC followed by dinner at River Cafe.
Just heading into Glasgow for a nice meal out (won%26#39;t be nearly as nice as RC!) Unfortunatley couldn%26#39;t make it back this year but def will be back for 2008.

Hi Mr. Sporran, and happy anniversary!
I don%26#39;t know if I%26#39;ll be around to catch Scocha, but I%26#39;ll keep the list handy in case I can get to see them.
Have a very happy Easter.
Happy Tartan Day
I am so disapointed I missed out on Tartan Day in New York!
They were setting up at Grand Central for a Scotland exhibit when we were there and I insisted on taking a photo and said how sorry I was it was starting after we left. Stuart then said to me, why do you need to go to that when you live in Scotland?!! Hahah, it was the same when I took a photo of Dewars whiskey in a bar we were in, I couldnt believe something from my little scottish town had made it all the way to New York!
Bettina, thanks for the good wishes. If at all possible Scocha are highly recommended, addictive actually.
Last year we saw them night before, night of wedding, and night after! Since then have caught them in Scotland too :-)
Odile Odette tartan day/ week is brilliant. We are big TA people and had lots of friends over for this. Was fun to walk down 6th avenue in my kilt.
MrSporran - Happy Tartan Day to you as well!
I actually accompanied the boyfriend to a scotch tasting last night (he tasted, I watched...I get watery eyes from the smell..I%26#39;m a lightweight!) and with the bottle of 15 year old that he purchased, got a square foot of land in Scotland with the purchase.
And to think, the most i ever get with my purchases are mini cosmetic bags with travel size samples...maybe I should become a scotch drinker!
