    That's Colombo's Pizza, in Bozeman, Montana (USA). The best times to catch me are on Wednesday nights and Friday nights. I'll make sure that you all quench your thirst! Just don't plan on coming next week, as I'll be in Boise, Idaho for that week.

    How could you even contemplate wearing anything else. This (summer bashes etc.) is what it's all about, man! 8) Go for it! And don't forget to report all the gory details after.

    Graham, I can tell you that after a powerful mixture like that, nobody would want to be around me for the next 24 hours or so!

    I guess I missed the Veggie Haggis. I'm going to try that. I don't think my wife would go for the real stuff but this she probably would try.

    Thanks for the info...

    It's funny that the recepie of vegetarian haggis has come up, someone sent me the exact same recepie via snail mail, unfortunately, they did not sign the letter.

    All the Gory detail's:

    As I said.It's amazing .Idon't no what it is Very time I put the Kilt on, I feel I grow to 10 feet tall.I'm a kilt missonary.Bringing the Kilt out to the unbelivers...I'm the Man.

    However the summer bash was rather un-eventful. Everyone has seen Me in formal dress before.So kilt and t-Shrit were no great suprise.

    I had to walk through town on the way. People here in Norway are a Reserved lot, and just Smiled.I heard several speak to others saying Look at this, and look at him over there. However nothing directly to me.

    I was on my own when I had to walk to the movies to buy tickets for Troy. The guy in the booth said "Lotr's finished somtime ago" We had a good laugh about it.

    It was a late showing finished at 1:30am and on the way back to my car I met two very Drunk teenage girls
    They were the only ones to shout out really load "LOOK AT HIM" and the usual "Whats under your kilt."

    It was My first outing in town without going to some form of Celtic evening. All in all every POSITIVE ..so as Nike say...........JUST DO IT. 8)

    David, what a joy to hear your account, I think we all know your experience, in fact I've just returned from the movies myself with my daughter (she's brave going out with me in a kilt).

    I also find teenagers can be cruel, I had a bunch of yobbo's outside the theatre yell out "hey lookat the kilt", I had a bottle of water in my hand (no, I didn't throw it) so I raised the bottle in a "cheers" salute and enjoyed their attention, best way to handle it - just take it as a compliment even if it isn't one.

    I like your term "kilt missionary", in our respective locations I'm sure we all feel like that.

    People here in Norway are a Reserved lot
    I think it is much like Tasmania (well I know a Tassie lass and a Dane who get on well).

    When I went to buy tickets for Troy I joked with the ticket seller and said "I want to see the film with 1000's of men in kilts", she laughed and remembered me when i returned this week again in a kilt, "I remember you" she said with a smile.

    My only concern David is that you are showing all the signs of addiction, you should be careful - I wouldn't want to be addicted
