    Some guy was on their today complaining that we kilt wearers were no thelping their cause, because we only wear men's clothing. Poor you buddy!

    I no longer want to associate with the people there. I only hope that the kilt wearers I have enjoyed talking to discover this site.

    I haven't been to Tom's since finding this fine site.

    The evil devil on my left shoulder says, "Go on... Post at Tom's and start a thread about the joys of Kilts and that cross-dressing has a deeper scar to heal."

    The good angel on the right shoulder says, "Just go to XMarks, and be good."

    The good angel rarely loses. He gets scared when he goes to open pictures at Tom's....

    Slainte,

    Tobie

    I became a regular patron of Tom's Café some six years ago, having been introduced to it as it being almost an exclusive haunt of kilt-wearers. Whilst there, I made many good friends, a lot of whom went out of their way to welcome me and to royally entertain me whilst on my "USA Tour '04" last June/July. I still have my own table in the Café (the one in the corner near the potted Palm). Tom himself, although quite seriously unwell, was exceptionally kind and generous to Dave W and me whilst on the Washington DC leg of our Tour - he is a gem of a gentleman.

    As a result, I cannot bring myself to abandon Tom's Café altogether, although I feel extremely saddened at the way in which the clientele has changed in the past year or so. I still pop in there from time to time - but not with any regularity - and, if I do not care for the 'atmosphere', I come out again as speedily as I went in!

    Hamish, it was a good place. Unfortunately it's been pretty well taken over by intolerant radical nutcases. One or two mentions of kilts among hundreds of s***t posts brings screams of horror and claims that the kilt wearers are taking over. I can do without that. I'm kind of sorry for Tom though. I'm sure this is far from what he envisioned.

    I'm saddened to hear about Tom, I knew he was sick but not how badly.

    He's made a great contribution to kilting, pity about his forum being hijacked by troubled people.
