Greek Kilt
I know it's not really a kilt, I just didn't take the time to look up its name. Aha, it's called a Fustanella.
I wore my kilt to several restaurants this weekend (and church, btw). All went well, had a great conversation with the Maitre'd at an Italian restaurant. I learned not to say that this is the army kilt, since he then asked what service I'd been in. It's the national kilt. Turns out he's a kilt/tartan fan and especially McGregor and had the different ones memorized enough to discuss them. Wow.
The first Greek restaurant was a more formal place and they know us. They didn't say much except a young waitress stepped over to say it looked good.
The other Greek restaurant we were at today is a laid back place and does a nice brunch. They know us and the floor manager, an elderly man, asked me what do Greeks and Scots have in common, He said, "We both wear skirts.", no problem there, he was including his own people. Then he said, "but ours uses more material."
Is that right? Does anybody know how much material is in the Greek item compared to the kilt? I would assume tank, more than likely he wouldn't know the other choices.
