    That really does not count as most Scottish boys are kilted at some time in their young lives - even if only for a day at a wedding!

    Take care,
    Ham.
    Sure it counts!


    By the way, if one were to wear a kilt at Wimbledon as a player, could you do so? It would have to be all white?

    I'm with Hamish - a childhood kiddie kilt pic that is not carried forward into adulthood does not count.

    I wore nappies then - I don't now!

    "...a London dry-cleaning service, the American Dry Cleaning Co., has set up a special kilt-cleaning service to cater exclusively to those who are mad for Murray."

    A special kilt cleaning service for tennis fans? What a "racket"!

    I wonder what their "net" profit will be?

    Sorry, I can't help it; it's not my "fault"...

    Ok, so this is a bit old now, but I'm a bit slow too...
    Does anyone remember the Monty Python Sketch where aliens keep turning "normal people" into Scotsmen? Why? Because THEY MEAN TO WIN WIMBLEDON!
    My brother and I play a little tennis now and again and inevitably repeat this line, only today we both had a good laugh, as for the forseable future the best British hope is once again a Scot
