    My first walk through the city while kilted

    Went into Center City to take in Scotland losing to France and Wales winning over England in the 6 Nations.
    I think this was my first time walking through town while kilted (Pride Of Scotland - I love these colours). It's quite amazing how much taller I stand, my usual slouch goes AWOL.
    No negativity at all. A wee chat with a fellow expat outside the pub.

    Get home before wife. When she comes in, after gushing over the roses that appeared on the doorstep while we were out, I say to her that I better change before going out to her Valentine concert tonight.

    She says.......

    No, you look great, go as you are.

    Sounds like a nice day all around. It is amazing how ones attitude changes whilest kilted. The whole world looks a better place, and one walks a little taller and more confidently. Enjoy your evening out.
