Today it is damp and windy outside making the 4.5C (40F) feel rather like 0C (32F), so this Sunday morning I soon forgot about a long walk and took the car to buy a newspaper.
I parked outside a gas station very close to the entrance door. A woman was sitting on a bank next to the door but with her face towards the building. She was talking to somebody on her cell phone. The moment I approached the entrance door she got aware of me and almost screamed out:
“O my God; here is a man in a kilt.”
I have no idea what the reaction from the other person on the line was, or what she afterwards said about the man in the kilt. Having bought the paper, she was still busy on her phone. She looked up, a little embarrassed; it seemed, and gave me something of a smile.
It was one of the few negative reactions to my kilt wearing, I guess, but never mind, on a dull day like this…
