    teaching at the locksmith school

    Beuth Sim is the teacher at the local locksmith school. I come in and give him a little rest by covering an intro to masterkeying. You will see me in 2 different kilts as this covers 2 evenings.

    BTW this is my 1st attempt at posting pictures. If this does not work somebody please tell me so I can ask an admin. to do a total delete that I may try again.:confused:

    "look at the board"

    Pictures seem to be working fine. I like the first outfit a lot. What's the tartan?

    Looking good there, Dirkskene. The second kilt appears to be box-pleated - very nice indeed. I am intrigued by your hose! You appear to be wearing two pairs - one normal length and one pair of ankle socks on top! Tell me I am seeing things!!

    No Hamish, it's just that they are cheap ones. I will be investing in several pair of good hose within the next month, actually the next 2 weeks. Now that I wear kilts more often than not I can justify good hose. I'll be adding kilts too & at least one more belt, a brown one.

    Absolutely right triple T. This is why I made Dirkskene a sporran and kilt pin. He has helped me and the students so much, it was the least that I could do for him. Not to mention the fact that we have been friends for a while!int:
