We still have the Saltire but we are making plans for it's departure to parts unknown. Today however was another wee adventure for the wee airship. We took Sir William who is visiting Toronto this week to a few tartan shops first it was up to Burnett's and Struth so Bill could look at their casual kilt sale. I am amazed that I did not purchase anything, but I suppose at this point I do not need anything so perhaps that's why. Anyway we got this photo of Sir William the wee airship and the woman at the shop whose name I did not get.



She asked me if I was a the Fergus Highland Games and was it me who posted the photo of the Bilt Kilt on XMarkstheScot. So I guess they will see this post as well, they really are great at Burnett's and the casual sale is not to be missed, I've got one and am seriously considering one more.

The drive back down was uneventful and we decided to go by the Scottish Company one of the local tartan shops in Toronto however no photos there as we did not think about it.

Hi to McMurdo and Alex,

I don't remember the name of the very nice lady either, but I do remember that she was a Scot.

Just landed aboot an hour ago and its been a long, long day.

Bill
Glad to hear you had a safe flight, it was wonderful meeting you and being able to show you a wee bit of the place I call home.

It was with heavy hearts that Catherine and I bid a fond farewell to the Saltire. It was a honour having the wee Airship the un-official mascot of the forum with us for our wedding and all the adventures since. So this afternoon we took it back down to the waterfront where we waved farewell, until we meet again. The crew would not tell us where the Saltire was off to, we watched as she rounded the CN Tower and flew out of site.

Seeing as the Saltire was very fond of my purse because of all the interesting things I carry in it (everything but the kitchen sink) I happened to know that it was heading off to....














He who must not be named. Guesses anyone?
