Title: 14th Annual Burns night in Arvada Colorado
Post by: Michael Thompson on February 04, 2014, 01:51:05 PM
We had a Thompson chairman, a Thompson piper, Thompsons doing the toast to the Lassies and the response from the Lassies, and even a Thompson singer this year. We have held a Burns supper at this pub since 2001, even though it is no longer a British pub, but now an Indian restaurant. From what I've been told, nobody eats more curry than the British anyway, and the Scots are included in that. Had a lot of fun as always, especially celebrating Rabbie's devotion to the common man. Our commemoration is not a black tie affair with lots of formalities. We do things a lot more casually and the people seem to enjoy it.

I've posted some photos on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10152146966275210.1073741836.98310815209&type=1&l=de12331bc0), be sure to stop by and take a look.
