    But Meghan, it is so nice to walk in there say Hi and get my drink. Of course I also change up my order when I think that they seem to comfortable with it.

    It is also great to hear that some people come in just to talk to the Kilted guy.

    I think it's pretty cool that the coffee crew A) expected you to be kilted and B) cared about which tartan you might wear

    Of course A coffee shop is probably the best place to have that done. If it were McDonalds, I'd worry. A bar, I'd worry. lol.

    I am on the same camp as Colin. I would take it as a compliment that the coffee shop folks 1) treat me as not just another passing customer; 2) know me well enough to realize I have several kilts that I wear regularly; and 3) are comfortable enough with me to get mad at me. Besides, a comment like that isn't to be taken seriously, especially given that this is really a business relationship. It's small talk. Kilt on and wish him the best of luck on the next bet. Also, what's so bad about a place of business knowing what you want?

    See? Now we *ALL* know your name. Then again, like the place that knows what you want, it's also nice to go where everybody knows your name. NORM!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi Dennis.

    I'm impressed they knew to call it tartan.
