    Corporate Evening - Sacramento

    My wife is a senior planner with ESA (Environmental Science Associates). This year the annual party was at an up scale wine bar. The bar is on the ground floor, the party was on the second floor.

    As we walked in several women at the bar smiled approvingly and applauded me in my kilt. We went up the stairs. About 10 minutes later the bar tender came upstairs with a large glass of Scotch - a gift from the women at the bar. I went downstairs and thanked them - they commented it was great to see a man in a kilt!

    It sounds like a great evening!

    I have moved your thread to the "General Kilt Talk" forum.

    Add some photos and I would be delighted to move it back to the "Show us your Picts" forum.

    (We X Markers are kind of twitchy about needing photographic proof if you hadn't noticed! )

    Cheers
