We have far more interesting things to talk about, like shooting,fishing, football, rugby,beer, weather, whisky, and some such...
Rugby and beer... Ooooh yesss!
Interestingly (or not as the case may be) on our recent visit to Dumfries, I was asked by a couple of the locals in one establishment why, as an English Bloke, I was wearing the kilt but not once was I asked about the tartan I was wearing.
Then we got on to Rugby and beer... remarkable!
