    Question But the invitation said formal ...

    Hi! Yup - I'm new here, but ... I figured if Xmarksthescot.com can't help me ... nobody can ...

    Has anybody got an electronic copy of the cartoon (either from Punch or The New Yorker?) of the Scots arriving at a soiree ... wearing floor-length kilts, protesting "But, the invitation said formal ..."?

    Thanks!

    I did a search in the Punch cartoon archives but the cartoon in question refused to show.

    I have seen the cartoon you refer to but do not have a copy nor a link to it.
