    Kilted at a British travel & lifestyle fair

    Today we visited a British travel and lifestyle fair...

    Travel agencies, tourist boards, stands selling typical British products, kiltshops, bagpipes, darts (Martin Adams "Wolfie") etc, etc...

    We attended a lecture about kilts and tartans...I became part of the lecture when I was asked to show my kilt (the Isle of Skye).
    After the lecture several women jumped on me...they wanted to know all the ins and outs...

    Some turned to Michelle and asked her..."uhh..is it true?"..."yes, and no...he's not for sale"

    Another great day kilted

    Sounds like a nice day out Robin - I recall taking part in a JayCees European Trade Fair at Alphen-ad-Rijn back in 1979 where some of the Scots contingent wore kilts.

    I'm sure the Isle of Skye tartan would have bowled them all over. Well done!

    Sounds like a fun day!!

    My wife likes to tell people "No, he's not for sale. He can, however, be rented for awhile!" Gotta love a wife with an evil sense of humour. :rolleyes:
