David

Around 3 men asked, one could tell that they would love to try a kilt. But as usual the price for the trad stuff as I was wearing today put them off I feel

Martyn

Martyn, there's a kilt record few will be able to beat - I mean the number of countries you've worn the kilt.
My problem is that I have to travel such a long way to get out of the country.

May I ask what the exhibit was about?

**Hamish** · 17th August 04, 04:43 PM

Good for you Ambassador Martyn.

I'm not a widely-travelled sort of chap, especially now that I am retired, but I have worn kilts in France, Belgium, all over the USA, England, Scotland Wales - Oh, and the Isle of Wight!!

Take care,
Ham.
(PS: Next year I'll be able to add Canada to my list).

Hamish has the Isle of Wight seperated from England now?

I love the place, we often took the ferry across for weekend holidays as a young'n.

Graham,

Maybe that was why we used to send our convicts there. It was so difficult for them to escape.

Martyn thats awsome, you clearly represent us well. And David...congratulations on the big 500 milestone.

David

**Martin Fr** · 18th August 04, 01:34 AM

Not to be outdone, let me give my list.
I have walked the streets kilted and turned a few heads in the following countries:
GB,
France,
Holland,
Germany,
Switzerland,
Italy,
Austria,
Hungary,
Czecho-land,
Malta,
Turkey,
Tunisia,
Morocco (these last two being the only countries where I have provoked lots of comments and sometimes great hilarity, elsewhere it has always been polite indifference),
and even USA.

So, if I am now labelled "new" kilter on this forum, may I claim the title of senior ambassador?

Martin,
in Grenoble, France.
