    Awesome stuff! And I love the new challenge! It's been a while since I've seen a good quality "Hamish Mark II."

    For some of our newer members who may be confused by this, please consult the following reference: http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/f...end-era-24731/

    Good luck! :-)

    Doing the Hamish

    Hope this will do?


    The next challenge is "kilted beside a ruin". I'll leave it open to your imagination as to what classifies as a ruin but In terms of buildings, apologies to the Canadians as, when I was last there, our guide was enthusiastic about anything approaching 100 years old, which of course is relatively recent in UK terms. So I don't imagine there are many ruined buildings to choose from; but it doesn't have to be a building.
    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!

    Challenge Met!

    Well done, tpa!

    That is one of the best poses of the Hamish, I've seen in a very long time! Perhaps the best.

    And amidst a field of dandelions!

    Love the castle in the background.

    SWMBO says I am the ruin, would that count?

    Thanks Mael, was not sure I could do it in view of recent hernia op., but all was well. Timing was critical as I couldn't hold it for the 10 secs duration of the time delay on the camera!

    Can you stand beside yourself?

    I think it needs to be inanimate or at least dead and I trust that neither is the case.

    Been 7 days now, supposing I say: "kilted beside a ruin or wreck". Does that help?

    Has no one come across a scrap yard or wrecked car by the side of the road? Ship wrecks are a little rarer. Or is no one wearing their kilt out and about at present.

    There are many old forgotten parts cars and trucks out behind my work, unfortunately we have a strict dress code on property so I can't wear the kilt, other sites won't be available to me till it warms up a bit and we head up north for weekend getaways. I will think outside the box if I can.... Maybe I can noodle up something

    That's been my issue lately. Not wearing my kilt -- just really super-busy and no chance to get dressed up and go someplace. ;-) Hoping that will change soon though.
