    At work last week a customer came up and said nice kilt in a Scottish accent. I thought he was playing around with the accent, but nope he is from Scotland and he really liked seeing the kilt. I was beaming from ear to ear. My first complement from a real Scot!!

    Ultimate supermarket for Kilting...

    Anybody visiting the Delaware beaches (or Ocean City) from D.C., Baltimore, or points west should make a stop at the Food Lion in Denton, Maryland.

    Shock, Awe, Contempt, Disgust, Admiration, Flirtation, they got it all. One of my most challenging "kilted" stops. A positive mental attitude is a must.

    The staff is very nice, some of them a bit nervous and the unwashed masses are a hoot.

    I go there about once a week to get coffee and such for the shop. Always an
    experience.

    One thing I am starting to notice, once the locals get used to you being in a kilt, seems to bring the passerby into line a bit. Curious things these mortals.

    I was walking across campus a few weeks ago when a young gent came up and told me, in the thickest Scottish accent I have ever heard, "Thanks for wearing your kilts. It reminds me of home. I'm thinking I should get mine sent over here." Talk about a comment making one's day.
