I hope Demonlanders don't mind a wee indulgence.

Earlier this week MFC attire was proudly and contentedly worn into 10 Downing Street. Photos below.

In a surreal experience, I was invited to a reception at Sir Keir Starmers digs with a small reception celebrating London Tech Week. I had low expectations as the quality of global political leadership is bog ordinary. Maybe because of low expectations, I found Keir (we're first name basis now - not) to be a most engaging listener and speaks from the heart. For our small audience anyway. But it was an easy environment. The UK is really backing tech to bring growth to the economy.

Everyone had to hand in their phones to police when we entered 10 Downing. It was just like an airport check-in with passport ID check, pockets emptied and metal detectors - except it was all manned by experienced police who were incredibly respectful and polite - big difference to an airport.

Walking through the hallways filled with paintings, pictures and busts of historical figures ws dream-like. There was a long staircase just like in the movie Notting Hill in which Hugh Grant busts some dancing moves. My younger daughter reckons Hugh dances like me, so I was tempted. 🕺😂 At the bottom of the staircase a staff member both guarded a side room and provided directions. I asked her if Hugh had danced in these rooms. She laughed and said it was all filmed elsewhere.

As I said - surreal. But, strangely, not unlike @Ghostwriter and her game socks, I felt comfort wearing those Dees socks and links.

Proudly flying the flag is no 'wee indulgence'!

@Dee in a Kilt I salute you!

Awwww this is great! What a wonderful experience and such an honour for you, and all while wearing your Demons Cufflinks and socks ♥️💙

Now you know what I have known for a few weeks:

There’s no power like the

POWER OF THE SOCK 👊🏼

Dunno about you, @Dee in a Kilt but I’ve got my lucky socks on 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

I don’t have cufflinks but my Melky earrings should do the trick 😁

Was there a picture of Kozzie framed in the hallway?

sock it to em my little sheet rack

The sock pic gives away one piece of 'kit' obviously not worn, @Dee in a Kilt!

You're not a Hamilton btw? That would have been the almonds on the Dundee!

MFC supporters are clearly a class above the rest. Fine food, good automobile appreciation, fine wines and clothing. Enjoyment of the high country and less booing.
