    Salutations de France

    Bonjour
    Newbie from a Lancashire lad who has retired to South West France (Don't even mention Brexit!) I do a lot of gardening for myself and friends and am thinking of wearing a light khaki kilt as it gets up into the mid - late 30s in summer. Any advice would be gratefully received.
    Passez un bon soiree.

    Well met Mat. I like the idea of a khaki kilt with gardening (will not show dirt as well). We have many members that "play in the dirt" for a living and I'm sure they will jump in with comments. Welcome to the group.
