    St. Paddy's Day SF

    Not quite sure how to write this without sounding like the worlds worst braggart. Yesterday I got kilted and went to watch the parade. I got there a little early and so was just standing around waiting. In less than 1/2 hour I had 17 people ask to have a photo taken with me. 14 ladies and 3 guys. One of the guys and 3 of the ladies wanted the pics because of my tattoos. The others were all interested in the kilt. I asked several of the people to send a copy of the pic to my e-mail address but so far none of them have come through.
    After the parade I went to my favorite bar for some Shepherds pie and a couple of shots of Jamiessons. The shepherds pie was free for the patrons of the bar. The owner also asked for a photo for the bar's facebook page. So all was not lost, I now have at least one photo from yesterday. That is the bar owner Kevin and I in the pic.

    as a heavily tattooed person myself, it is nice to see someone such as yourself dressed in Kilt.

    Cheers to you!
