Now you see! -seems like my idea of positive responses was crummy because right of the bat we get into how to deal with negative responses. If you want that then start a negative thread! All I am saying is: sometimes daily life brings us happiness; tell us about it! You can call me a dreamer, Mr. Pollyana or whatever you like but let's hear some of the things that are "icing on the cake" of a kilt-wearer. Not just any of the usual stuff but those stories that are extraordinary, those gems or nuggets if you like. Those two stories which I told maybe don't seem extra-special to you veterans of the kilt, but gimme a chance, I only just started wearing one! Tell you what, something extraordinary is going on when a group of attractive women in their late 20's are lifting up the back of my kilt in the pub! What so extraordinary about that? I am 64 years of age that's what! (one of them even said that I have a nice ***!) Now come on lads, let the negative souls do their own thread. This one your on now is a feel-good thread; get with it! Cheers,- Alan
