Paul's Nashville trip September/October 2005

these photos below were taken whilst Paul was in Tennessee last year (2005).  Top two left: Clan McLean (Rochester mob) down for the food!  Right: here they are again!  Third from left is Helen McLean (Nashville) who is Paul's great pal there and who - for some unknown reason - lets him stay at her hoose!  This photo is a great family shot guys. Paul has worked his way into this one!

Kenny is wearing the Maclean dress kilt with hose and sporran borrowed from Paul... not to be outdone - below, here are the lovely sisters wearing Paul's sporran and jacket! Below Right, Betty and Janis - could they be saying NO to a drink? or FIVE drinks each!

THE FAMOUS WALMART RAID OF '05!  After the dinner and drinks at the hotel in Murfreesboro, we decided we had not had enough, hell - the bar closed around 2am (I think).  Ken and Paul decided on a quick raid into Walmart just around the corner.  We took some sisters and a pal along as shotgun.  Below, Kenny and Paul sizing up the beer racks.  Right, yup! that's one we will have.  We ended up with many more and "borrowed" a cart to get it all back to the hotel.  Once there, Paul pushed it through the lobby and down to the room, where we enjoyed a wee bit more Bud etc!

MEANWHILE - back NEAR NASHVILLE another day (below)... on Gary and Barb's boat we sailed the day away - with the odd beer of course!  Thanks to Barb and Gary for that day and the weather they arranged!  .... messin aboot wi' boats.  bottom right: say, don't ask Paul how fast he can demolish a beer? that's just madness.
