His mother, a very elderly lady, came to me and said; "You look sooo nice!", that was the best compliment I have ever had.

Thats cool . . . the very first time I wore my kilt to work, about five years ago, I was in a class for work . . . one black lady who saw me in the break room went on and on about how nice it looked, and asked all sorts of questions about the tartan, etc.
