    I am asked Rugby scores even if the match hasn't started, have been asked the best brand of porage oats in a supermarket and have been used as an airline arrivals board as in someone saying at Bristol Airport "ah the Inverness flight must be in" when they saw me kilted!

    Not been asked about haggis yet but bound to happen!

    Funny, when one wears a kilt you're assumed to be an expert on all things Scottish. But, it's also a great way to start a conversation and tell folks about the St. Andrew's Society, etc. I often go to events wearing a kilt to advertise the Spokane Highland Games or an upcoming event and hand out information. I figure I like to wear a kilt and use it to advertise. Two birds with one stone.

    My wife's a long time vegetarian ( I try not to hold it against her) and swears by Mc Sweens vegetarian haggis, albeit washed down with some Glenmorangie.
