On the US' CBS Sunday Morning show will be a segment on Scotland. I saw kilts and heard pipes. It is called, "The Long Drive".
Gotta get coffee & dressed for work. I might miss it.
Hope it's good!

It is a series. The correspondent is knocking a golf ball from Greenock to St. Andrew's. He's going kilted & meeting locals. He was piped away from Greenock.

Caught part of it, looks interesting, wish that I could have seen all of the segment. Perhapse someone will post it on U-Tube.

It's Phil Keoghan from The Amazing Race. I spotted a Sport Kilt logo on his waist. Not sure what tartan, though. He even stopped to have lunch at a local school. The kids were jumping all over the place, trying to get on camera.

Interesting stuff. I think the last leg is coming up shortly. Tune in, if ya can!

Aye, waiting for the last part of it as I write this.....Mildly amusing! There was a short bit on kilts. Malcolm

Looks like MacKenzie modern. I can't believe he did the whole thing wearing golf shoes. OUCH. Good on him, though. 107 miles in 4 days is quite a hike.

I just saw it, he teed off the 18th on St. Andrews with a seven iron, and made a twenty foot put with the same iron

. Looked like fun, but watch out for the kilt police, because he was wearing a black fur-evening sporran.

the kids were screaming for various reasons, so i had to attend to them when this story aired. so i missed it.

**escherblacksmith** · 14th April 08, 08:01 AM

it was entertaining, he ended up getting a birdie on St. Andrews with a 7 iron, which he had been hitting balls across scotland with.

he didn't wear sporran until St. Andrews however . . .

He didn't. He wore tennis shoes in many spots, he jogged four miles without hitting the ball to make up for lost time, he even mentioned in summary that he rode a bike also.
