    Meeting the PM

    I've been invited, as a member of our business community, to share afternoon tea with Australia's Prime Minister this month.

    Naturally I'll be kilted, it will be interesting to see his reaction, and it will be a great opportunity to promote the kilt.

    Graham,
    What a great opportunity, for the PM, to meet such a great man as yourself.

    Enjoy your visit.

    Congratulations, are you involved in any political groups or does this honor come entirely from your business success. I look forward to hearing of your meeting. O'Neille

    Congrats Graham! How does one arrange a meeting like that? Are you an influential political supporter or is it through some other association?

    There you go!... There are occasions when it is an advantage that kilts are not every day common attire.

    I presume that you'll wear your jacket and tie along with it.!

    Does that mean you have to make a trip to Canberra for tea with Mr Howard? That's quite a trip isn't it. Have a great time while you're there.
