Congratulations on your 1,000th post Graham. I have done it on another forum so can appreciate how you must feel here, on this relatively new one. Well done, my friend.

As for being eccentric: yes, of course I am - and I am proud to admit it. Mind you, all through my working life, until six years ago, I conformed in every way I knew how - I hated to stray from the narrow path - but, once I retired I was able to find my true self and began buying kilts 'big time'. My whole life changed from that moment.

Friends tell me I am a totally different person now - since I re-invented myself - and am much more relaxed, and 'likeable' even!
