A couple of encounters kilted
Furrykelt, and Derek and a few others got me thinking that I should post about the encounters I have had recently, and by recently I mean today. This morning as I was walking into my local Tim Hortons (a coffee shop, for those that dont get to Canada, or the northern States often) I held the door open for a few people, one gent says to me as he passes:
"Hello Jimmy, are you gonna play us a tune"
in his worst put on Scottish accent. As I had just woken up not to long before, my responce was:
"No, the pipes are in the boot"
He went away, not sure if my answer was what he was looking for, and I dont care, the funny thing is that later as I was thinking about it, I thought to myself, I should have said only if you can play me a tune on your banjo
Why do complete strangers think they have the right to comment on what I wear anyway.
The other encounter was way better, I went into my local Tandy Leather store, and the owner started talking to me about kilts he said he has one from when he was a drummer in a pipe and drum band, however as we all seem to do he has outgrown it, I was able to point him in a few directions
and gave him this address as well, hopefully he will drop by.
