I pronounced it like that but it was without the Scottish brogue. I don't even try to duplicate foreign accents. Like I said I have enough problems speaking correct American English without disrespecting and slaughtering another dialect.

Thanks to the guys around here I getting use to the insults and mockery. Meaning their advise of blowing them off that is. I don't think I will get use to the asking for photos or just taking them without asking though. In some ways it's flattering but most of the time it makes me wonder what about a kilt gives people idea that it ok just because I'm in a kilt. Had 3 different groups of people ask me for photos and at least 5 others that just went ahead and took them without asking that I saw. Granted one group was a couple of lovely ladies but I'm quite sure my wife does not want me to go around town when I'm away from her and have my picture taken with any ladies, lovely or otherwise. With the internet what happens in San Diego ends up on Youtube and Facebook.

I appreciate help making things look better but a public but chewing is the sort of thing that warms my heart. I just tried to nod respectfully and get a way quickly. Granted sometimes there not much you can do. I've found out with m y calves I need longer garters (which she kept insisting they were flashes) otherwise they don't have a whole lot of length unless I use them like tourniquets.
