    At least you don't get the question, "where're your bagpipes?"

    When I'm dressed formally, no one bats an eyelash. It's when I'm dressed casually that people seem to really take notice. It's a very different reaction when you're in a kilt and an Iron Maiden shirt than when you're in a kilt and a Prince Charlie. PC... People seem to assume that you're wearing some sort of costume for a special event. Iron Maiden shirt? You're just a weirdo to some- and sexy as hekk to others.

    Love it. When one is full of pride it really is a great feeling, and no rude comments.

    True enough!

    Trouble is if I walked around carrying bagpipes I might be asked to play them!

    That's what I'm afraid off. Otherwise I would use this as excuse.
