Well...real in the sense he was from Aberdeen, Scotland.

At the firm I work, we had a SONY security products new lineup lunch and learn thingy today and one of the presenters was a Scot.

He was surprised to see me in my kilt, up to and including my skean dhu.

He told us how he didn't wear his kilt anymore because of the strange looks, so I reminded him that I wear my kilt daily and after a while you automatically screen out the stares and focus on the positive comments when they do happen, etc.

Refreshing to hear the accent and, personally, to be able to 'represent'.
