No, you'll never guess it was "Jimmy" &lt;vbg&gt; - should that be pronounced Jimmeh?.

As a Liverpudlian, I'd better not try and reply in your "language" &lt;g&gt;

I assume you have been to Thruds house. Does this mean he's in bonnie (don't think it's a "y" here) Scotland too?

You know, I can almost hear your accent as I read your message &lt;g&gt;.

Thrud, I understand that not asking about a gentleman's kilt is good manners, but I figured it would turn into one good story. I was right; a flourescent yellow, ankle length kilt worn backwards, and nothing "worn" under it brought tears of laughter to my eyes. Thanks, Alistair, to a good day's start, Bobby.

That's funny. Better worn than wilted...

Alistair
