    French kilt wearer

    Hello and thank you for welcoming me to the Forum. I am French and I am a new kilt wearer.
    I had dreamed of it for a long time and I finaly bought my first kilt last Friday, a black PV kilt.
    Sunday I went for a walk on the Normandy beaches in kilt with my wife. One or two gusts of wind they tried to discourage me but I held on and finished my walk. A few curious or questioning looks, but nothing more.

    Bonjour et bienvenue sur le forum..!

    Je vous encourage à porter le kilt souvent - en tant que résident de la Suisse normande, je portais fréquemment le kilt et j'ai toujours reçu des compliments. Connaissez-vous la fête annuelle des écossais à Aubingy sur Nère - c'est une semaine de festivités en kilt. C'est excellent, magnifique..!

    Welcome from a Scotsman now living in the English midlands. (I did study French many years ago, but will not attempt a French reply!)

    Welcome, from Inverness-shire. I too wear the kilt in Normandy on very special occasions, mainly in the Avranches area, but have worn the kilt, again for a special occasion, on the Normandy beaches near Ouistreham.
