Take care,

It's very likely that they lied about that too. Rare (and short-lived professionally) is the media person who will pass up an opportunity to embarrrass someone.

An old video brings fond memories
Hamish-I remember that video! Brings back fond memories! Also, when you invited me to 'your table by the potted palm'. I wasn't sure if you were still here or not. I don't post to often anymore, but I eagerly read any and all of your posts. I've just retired from the airlines, and getting more involved with my Theatre Pipe Organ group. I also spend as much time as possible with my 21month old grandson. I'm hoping that 2009 will allow my wife and I to visit the U.K and Ireland. I've found that I'm 40% Scottish, 40% Irish, and 20% German-or something. ( I do prefer the 1st and 2nd percentage in a glass now and then! LOL! ) Last Saturday, I completed a photo shoot as the Jolly Ol' Elf in the Red Suit. The babies really know how to pull a beard!
Best Regards!

As long as the person wearing them shows respect for where they came from everything is O.K.
You don't have to be Scottish to wear a kilt. But it's nice if you respect Scotland's history.
We aw hae an opinion Arlen as lang as wee dinnae offend, thats yin o' the reasons we are oan this forum!

Uncle Al! As I live and breathe! Yes, I am still around these parts but have time to linger only very infrequently - hopefully I'll have more of that rare commodity after Christmas. Ah! The table by the potted palm! Those were happy days, but the place changed so much I was uncomfortable being there and have not been back in recent years.
I reciprocate your Seasonal Greetings and Good Wishes.
Take care,
Ham.
