    clever...

    Tied into a bow, of course! 8)

    Clever -- I know if would sell -- great ice-breaker (and possible pick-up line for the single young bucks) -- "see, I won first prize -- here's the ribbon to prove it!" after telling the story of the song!

    Cheers!

    I recieved an extra three days off from work because I'm going to have to work nine straight. Its amazing what rest and relaxation plus several drams of good whisky will do for the ol' brain.

    Here ya go Graham.....It's not the song lyrics, but the same story.

    A kilted Scotsman was walking down a country path after finishing off a considerable amount of whisky at a local pub. As he staggered down the road, he felt quite sleepy and decided to take a nap, with his back against a tree.

    As he slept, two young lasses walked down the road and heard the Scotsman snoring loudly. They saw him, and one said, "I've always wondered what a Scotsman wears under his kilt."

    She boldly walked over to the sleeping man, raised his kilt, and saw what nature had provided him at his birth.

    Her friend said, "Well, he has solved a great mystery for us, now! He must be rewarded!" So, she took a blue ribbon from her hair, and gently tied it around what nature had provided the Scotsman, and the two walked away

    Several minutes later, the Scotsman was awakened by the call of nature, and walked around to the other side of the tree to relieve himself. He raised his kilt...and saw where the blue ribbon was tied. After several moments of bewilderment, the Scotsman said...

    "I dinna know where y'been lad...but it's nice ta'know y'won first prize!"
