    Funny you should mention that.

    About 20 odd years ago, my good friend, Neil Shaw, son of Rt Rev Duncan Shaw (past Moderator of the Gen. Assbly of the C of S), visited the States, including the South West (may have been Texas). When he first arrived in NYC from the UK, he was in his kilt etc and also had a brief-case and much to his surprise, no-one really batted an eyelid. When he returned to NYC from the south West, he was wearing a rather fine Stetson, fine boots and a business suit, together with that brief-case. This time, plenty people turned their heads !
