    An interesting conversation

    While my wife and I were walking today in the spectacularly beautiful Vale of Eywas, adjacent to the Wales-England border, we happened to pass a couple, probably in their forties. The woman had a gentle Scots accent and asked me why I was wearing a kilt. Upon my reply she said that her father "always wears one." She grew up near Aviemore.

    I recall having a similar conversation a short while ago.
