    Met an old friend ...

    Yesterday I met an old school friend I have'nt seen in 30 yrs plus. He was in company with a few other guys who I did'nt know. He had quite a surprised expression on his face seeing me in my Cilt. We had a brief chat with his friends listening in. He was friendly enough in conversation but you could sense he was needing to say something about my Cilt especially as his friends were with him. Finally he said, ' I can't get over you wearing a Cilt of all things'. I replied ' You will, cos you ain't flipping getting under it!' Gave em all a good laugh bar him. Its all I could think of at the time.

    Great response!
    I bet it was rather unexpected.
    Old friends are the best!

    I must keep that comeback logged in my memory. It's the best I have heard for that comment.
