Supergirl and the Killer Flamingos!


For all of you who have been jonesing for photographic proof that actual Highland Gamesiness is going on up here – your day has come. Well, kind of…

Remember ‘The Little Dance’? Here it is:



Oh yeah, shake it baby!

For the record, I now have several new and interesting moves to add to my repertoire.

The first is something akin to Morris Dancing, but without bells.

And with a bigger stick.



The obligatory “duck-face pose” avec caber. All the guys are doing it this year.



Did I mention it’s a very, VERY big stick?



Actually, it’s MY very, very big stick. Caber envy, anybody?



OK, got my stick, who wants to dance?

The second new move is a Highland tribute to Michael Jackson’s seminal music video from the 1980s. I’m just calling it ‘Killer’:



Then, of course, since we’re dealing in cheesiness, how could I possibly leave out ‘Supergirl’?



Thematically linked by the concept of flight is the expressive ‘Aeroplanes’:



And moving seamlessly from powered flight to the animal kingdom, I give you the Highland Flamingo:



My Bangles tribute, ‘Walk Like an Egyptian’:



And last but not least, to end on a classical note, here we see the Highland Ballet:



Yes. It’s going to be an interesting summer!
