    Hi
    Declaring 3/10 NSDs. Doing this challenge has been harder than I thought it would be. I'm surprised by the number of days I spend on one or two things. And will need to do some planning to stop this for next month.

    Here is number 9 NSD for the Cauldron of Doom!!!

    Igor, make sure everybody is in the ballroom later for their Scottish country dancing lessons, the Slaughtering Ceilidh band are dropping in to size up the room for the acoustics, and they might provide some music to practise to. Hubert has been swotting up on some of the old dances that folk may have forgotten, such as Swing Your Sporran,
    Tha's a Braw Wind Up Ma Troosers, and Fling the Haggis.

    I am sure we will soon get the hang of the steps.

    One two three whoop! And skippetyskip round to the left, link arms, then round to the right.....slow down, Hubert, we can't follow your instructions at this speed.......I say, the Slaughtering Ceilidh band are good, aren't they? I am sure I have seen the drummer before...and the accordion player...and come to think.of it the singer....what's that, Igor? They just use that name for this type of occasion.....what is their usual name, then?

    What???!!?? The Good Old Boys?? I thought they were still doing community service?

    Well, if they behave themselves on the night I suppose it will be ok.....just keep the turnip whisky away from.them.....

    Will someone please tell Hubert that his instructions for the dance steps make no sense at all because he is assuming we all.have four legs like he has!!!

    Somehow I get a bad sense of impending doom about our end of month party....

    I must admit that Tha's a Braw Wind Up Ma Troosers is a new one to me. :rotfl:
