427.1 | Aye, Laddie, I will be there | CSC32::MA_BAKER | | Tue Aug 30 1988 10:44 | 6 |
| You bet. I am entered in Grade IV 2/4 march and 6/8 march and Grade
III Pibroch for solo piping. Also going to attend the Tartan Seminar
and then for the rest of the weekend, I will get to actually enjoy
the Games. Last year I was in a pipe band and never got any time
to do anything, but not this year. I'm looking forward to it.

| Count me in...I'm looking forward to music, beer, music, beer, and
watching big burley folks throwing around telephone poles. Oh,
my wife and I are also entering dulcimer and whistle competitions...
See you there, Joel, and MA_BAKER.

- day and night.
Now for the hurling All Ireland this weekend. The following weekend
the under 21 hurling All Ireland is being held in Birr. Lots of
hurling for the enthusiast.

427.4 | Tartan Seminar | CSC32::MA_BAKER | | Thu Sep 15 1988 14:31 | 13 |
| Any of you Scots (or others interested in TARTANS), if you get the
opportunity to ever attend Dr. Philip Smith's Tartan Seminar, I
would highly reccommend it. I went to the one he gave at the Longs
Peak Festival in Estes Park, Colorado. It was about 6 hours in
length, and covered history of the tartan (and of Scotland), the
clan system, some Gaelic, and a whole lot of other stuff. I found
it to be very educational and extremely interesting. Phil is of
course the author of "A Tartan for Me", which is a book that suggests
tartans for different names. He is a fellow of the Scottish Tartan
Society. He is a linguist and teaches languages at some Pennsylvaina
university. I also wound up with a certificate from said Society
that says that I am now knoweldgable enough to man Scottish Society
or clan tents. But I did enjoy the seminar!
