    spent some of a summer in Brighton, quite the place, my dad's favourite place in the world. he recognized all the places on the Quadraphenia photo album. Do they still have the cherry sellers there? I've never heard anybody as loud as that since.

    I was actually thinking of Brighton yesterday while reading some of the remarks about moderators, I was thinking of the mods and rockers battles on Brighton beach.

    Ham,

    You are the man! With such dignity and class (as always) you are a great ambassador to the wearing of the kilt!

    What a story! I can jsut visualise you walking along Brighton prom, wish i could have been there!

    Glad the boxer liked the kilt, wouldn't argue with him if he didn't like it :mrgreen:

    Hamish, did I tell you that on the way home from our meeting in London I met one of the actors from Monarch?
    Don't know his name, he was the bank employee who came to close Glenbogal and ended up staying there.

    We only passed on the station platform, he noticed my kilt, I recognised him, no words exchanged but I did wonder if the kilt reminded him of Duncan (Hamish Clark).

    (Had to throw my own celebrity story in) ;-)

    Yes Todd, he was the one! I wish I'd time to speak with him. Never mind, he got to see that kilts are worn by people outside the MOTG set!

    That is a very cool encounter with a champion boxer. I wonder if he is going to phone you up and buy you a cup of coffee after he got his first kilt?
