    It sounds like the bar employee's were quite rude.

    It does bring back memories though of being refused entry to bars while in the military because we were ... military.

    I guess the regulars were tired of having their a$$e$ handed to them every night and their girls leaving with us

    Maybe the manager of the bar knew what was coming when he saw a man in a kilt

    E-mail sent.

    Seems odd that a bar would deny entrance to a nice fellow in a kilt... It's not like it's unsanitary, otherwise, they would have to forbid women in skirts to enter. And that would make ladies night not very fun.....

    Just sent a message. It is a shame we can't arrange to have the rabble visit them.

    They probably figure that they're safe being all that way away in Australia...course we DO have a considerable representation in the Land Down Under...

    No...I think they should get a fair trial and then be transported...back to England! No more sun, no more surfing, no more Australian Rules Football! No more Barry Humphries!

    Just what I thought about saying in my message just now...no wonder they were transported far away from the Kilted Rabble

    E-mail sent. This club is not a good ambassador for Australia which I thought was keen to promote itself as a progressive multi-racial, multi-culture society and lose its popular image as a country populated by deported English criminals and their descendants.

    Perhaps the ACT (Australian Capital Territory) authorities can also be contacted?

    Surely such discrimination must be actually illegal?
