    I thought it was good as well. I will re-post the question I had on the other thread, which is what tartan/kilt is Paul Jr. wearing? I like the fact that it appears to be a tartan from the front, but the pleats show a saltire. Very cool!

    That's the Saltire Tartan. Saw it at a wedding earlier this year in Edinburgh. See it at www.saltiretartan.com
    It is very cool.

    Paul Sr looked downright menacing in a kilt. Riding the scooters kilted looked nice and airy ;-) Paul Jr sure did wimp out at Melville Castle.

    hehe, good point Bryan, but I think Paul Sr. would look menacing in a tutu.

    I agree! I had not seen AC in a while and had forgotten how massive Paul Sr's arms were. when he was riding the old (1969?) BSA bike, he is so large he made it look like a mini-bike!

    Yeah, the guy is huge, monstrous big: but did you notice he was told to stretch, ignored the advice, and threw his back out on the first swing he took playing cricket? I was a tad embarrased at the way they hassled the tour guide and cooked a set of minivan tires as well: I'm not certain they did much to improve the view many overseas folks fhave of Americans in general.

    Bryan...well, except for Mikey...

    The Scots got a bit of revenge though when they made Paulie drop his boxers.

    Bryan, he definitely is, anybody know how he got that big? Those arms did not just show up, I would guess he might have been a weight lifter or body builder in the past?

    I thought the hassling of the bus guide was a little out of line as well, but at the end they thanked him and were courteous. I tend to think that since Sr. wasn't going to be able to bawl out Jr for some infraction, they needed some kind of conflict for people to continue to watch. I do agree that they certainly did not do anything positive for the perceptions of those from the US.
