Me, in a red dress, and Lou (never got his surname) standing with the portrait of Rabbie Burns. Lou is a dapper older gentleman in his kilt, sporran, vest, white shirt and bow tie. And what a smile!

And this handsome and brave lad, Lou, took me in hand and whirled me about the room and taught me how to dance the Tam o'Shanter.

I think it was a passable first try :)

AND I DIDN'T STEP ON HIS TOES.
