    Much deeper and we'll have to lift our own kilts.

    Luckily, I live part way up a mountain here at about 6500+ ft. If it gets that deep, I'll have room to go higher.

    ...As for the plaid brooch: it WAS actually pinned to my chest - I insisted (yes, for the second time!) that they did it that way. It was never going to hang right with the Blu-Tack they were already softening, and besides I enjoy a little pain from time to time - not a lot of people know that! The resulting flow of blood did pose a minor problem, in spite of someone suggesting that it would help to make it look as though I had been fighting for the horse-bound lassie's honour. However, that doesn't occur in the story (Story! Ha! Don't make me laugh!) nor could it without a complete rewrite. So that suggestion was dropped, and a nurse was sent for to stand just out of shot to mop the blood flow between 'takes', which she did to perfection. When the brooch was removed at the end of the shoot, the flow stopped almost immediately - that's one of my party tricks, stemming the flow. Remind me to do it for you all sometime.

    I burst out laughing! I was so glad I checked in on X Marks this evening instead of in the morning. I usually go over the new posts with a piping hot cup of coffee in my hand...I'm afraid my computer would have been shorted out and I would have gone to the emergency room with burns.

    ummm, no. I don't think I will get this book for my wife. She may start to think that that is what kilted guys should look like, and then where would I be? I only give her books with small scrawny guys, and have her convinced that the average...well, that most pencils in the pencil box are 4". and Hamish...Hamish, your just awesome. I gave myself a good hardy chuckle at your explination for the photo shoot.

    Ham, that was a real gem! You made my day.
