    Return favors

    We like to see people smile when they see us kilted...

    Today I returned the favors...

    I was wearing my Caledonian kilt when I met a lady....between 50 and 60. She was wearing a Royal stewart skirt, black stockings, a long leather coat and a Holyrood scarf...."très chiq".

    I noticed her and her eyes almost popped out when she noticed me...
    I stopped walking...looked at her skirt...looked at her scarf and looked her straight in her eyes. Gave her a smile and nodded my head.

    We passed eachother without saying a word, but she smiled...a huge proud and happy smile.

    I think I made her day...

    A very nice thing to do. I'm sure it made her feel attractive and proud of her attire.

    Whoa, that's cool...if you were my age - 61 - you'd have chatted her up for sure....and how cool is it that you both were in the Netherlands?

    Next time, get her email for me

    Withhold not good from them to whom it is due when it's in your power to grant it. Well done.
