    Talking The Power of the Internet

    Hey, this thread is famous! It got written up in the Glasgow Herald, or at least the online version. From a column called "The Diary":


    Seriously shaken
    AND talking of matters Scottish sartorial, we are dircted to the website Xmarksthescot which discusses all things about kilts. A chap in Georgia, America, writes that he was wearing his kilt - "my Gordon weathered box pleat, black sporran and boots, just casual" - while antique hunting in Atlanta when an elderly stall-holder told him that her late husband was once drinking in a famous London bar with Sean Connery. who was in his kilt that day.

    A chap came up behind Connery, lifted his kilt and hooted: "007? More like 003 and a half."

    "Connery," said the old lady, "turned round and decked him."
    Best regards,

    The story is too good to be untrue.
