Ok, Ok, I know, I shouldn't let it bother me when mindless idiots make absolute fools of themselves but...

Have a stinking cold so decided to wear my Loud & Proud MacLeod scarf to keep my neck and chest warm whilst popping out to get some lunch and just had 6 'hilarious' youths spend 10 minutes having a go about me 'stealing it from Rupert the Bear'.

The temptation to do something physical, given the week I've been having, was overwhelming!

Decided to follow my old sergeant's advice - when a guy's being a d***, let him prove to the world you're a better guy than he is and leave your sidearm in the holster - its too much paperwork for one jerk...

Hi Martin

Didnt realise that you are in the neighbouring county. I feel a future kilt night coming on. I guess the cowards were only joshing because they had safety in numbers I doubt that they would have the guts to say anything if you had had 5 Kilted "scotsmen" with you to even up the numbers. I would imagine that the baggy arsed yobbos would have run away screaming to their mummies.
Good for you in rising above their ignorance.

I don't think they realized either that a scarf in the right hands is a quieter weapon than a sidearm.

yeah, there's always bravery in numbers. A few jibes I can cope with, but being mobbed for 10 minutes...

A local kilt night would be great. Aside from around the house, I only get to wear mine a few times a year. And a few beers with friends...
