I've heard it all now

I have in fact attended Druid rituals within the Stonehenge circle-and worn the kilt to and from the event-though donning a white robe for the actual occasion-as a courtesy to the actual Druids.

Quite funny, for I was emerging from the lavatory-a bit apart from others so dressed, and there was a coachload of American tourists--well it said aso on the coach. Anyway the look on their faces at seeing a chap in a 'white dress/robe' emerging from the lavatory was quite a sight!

Then a braver member of the group asked why I was dressed in such a way-and the relief on his face when I told him that it was in respect of a Druid ritual was a sight to see. To then I think he'd been recalling everything bad he'd ever heard about us Brits-worse than that!

I also attended one this year at Stonehenge for the summer solstice, and there was an amazing German pipe and drum band-playing the traditional doodlesac and dressed in the most exotic attire-leather skirts and the like-great fun.

The only problem with wearing the kilt to a British tourist attraction-is brushing off the crowds of camera happy Japanese tourists.

James, the Americans were probably afraid that the KKK had opened up a branch in Britain.

If you're not familiar with the Ku Klux Klan, look it up. It's one of the more shameful parts of modern American history.

Yeah, in all honesty, if I saw a fellow wearing a white robe, my first instinct would be to do unspeakable things to him. Not saying I would do it, but the thought would cross my mind.

I don't like Klansman.
