Just read a sad notification

Post by Uncle Al »

Just read a sad notification on Facebook. The notification was
posted by Paul Henry Kilts.
Someone whom I knew from Skirt Cafe' and X-Marks the Scott,
has left us in the lurch.

Hammish Bicknell has passed :(

May he Rest In Peace :!:

That is very sad. I met Hamish in 2000 or so, and had the pleasure of staying with him on more than one occasion. I last saw him about four years ago - and throughout that time, I worked receive a Christmas card every year with a handwritten message.

The stories he would tell! Just a remarkable life.

An absolute gentleman.

RIP, Hamish.

Sad indeed !

In another (kilt) forum always joking about who had the most kilts -
and always coming up a half dozen short -
Hamish's were the authentic ones not like my wrap skirt imitations !

If kilts are not in fashionable vogue beyond the pearly gates they
sure will be now !

The kilted ambassador has arrived !

Horn blowing fan-fare ta-da - - - - -
"YES SKIRTING MATTERS"!
"Kilt-On" -or- as the case may be "Skirt-On" !
WHY ?
Isn't wearing a kilt enough?
Well a skirt will do in a pinch!
Make mine short and don't you dare think of pinching there !
