Are you a short shortie?

Just to continue briefly on the kilt theme.
On my last ferry trip which was this week I saw a cyclist wearing a kilt. Elderly sort of bloke with a large white moustache on an ebike heading past the Craignure ferry terminal. Probably I guess a tour guide at Duart Castle and must have come from Salen 10 miles away so another couple of miles to Duart.
An unusual sighting for sure.

John Wayne's Acapulco man bag has been troubling me for the last day.
Back in 1959, what on Earth would anybody want to hump about? Mobile phones didn't exist. Water came out of the tap, not in plastic bottles.

Nobody wrote three inch thick trash sunlounger novels in those days (except Marcel Proust), so what's in the Duke's stash? He used to chug through four to six packs of Camels every day, but even that impressive consumption doesn't need something the size of one and a half shoe boxes.

I'm lost.

Maybe he had a 'movie' camera of the day in the bag/case.🤔

They were quite big in those days.

What would intrigue me more than what he had in his bag would be why did he wear his stetson on holiday? 🤔 His stetson was part of his work clothes when acting. Would a 'construction worker' wear his hard hat on holiday? :smile:
