I hope not! Last time I was in York I was kilted for a wedding there - and I'm still here. Lovely city, have a good time.

Presumably the action has moved from the now quite central city walls to the more rural outskirts, possibly even further afield due to the hunting ban and there being a need for a substitute for the more traditional quarries of fox and hare.

I'm sure it's much nicer than swimming in the gully, Pleater. Hope it continues to be a nice visit.

When I was kilted in the Minster I was approached by one of the clergy who informed me that I might be in mortal danger as there was some obscure old law (probably from the time of Wallace) about it being legal to kill armed Scots in the city with a bow and arrow.
