This is the first time I have started a thread so I hope I have followed the correct proceedure.

I came across this article in another web site.

St Mel's Cathedral in Longford, as you know, was badly damaged by fire a few years ago and the locals are keen to have its restoration completed as soon as possible.

Well, maybe not all of them.

Local architect Liam Madden has launched a series of objections and the latest is certainly an interesting one.

He doesn't want a planned glass lift installed because, he says, this "would give rise to the problems of modesty for Scotsmen visiting in their kilt".

Now, I wasn't aware that Longford deals with hordes of kilt-wearing Jocks going commando but, ace reporter that I am, I'm going to take a punt and say that there may be more to his objections than seeing Scots' willies.
