Clan Clark Kent?
Kilt by 21st Century Kilts I think.

Pour1Malt won a Baxters Food Hamper of Chef's Kitchen Accessories in the raffle - including pickles, sauces, jams, chutneys etc and a bottle of wine.

And I went home to try on my latest kilt accessory - a Scocha T-shirt promoting their latest album Gie'd Sum Wellie which I purchased at the gig today, seen here with my 5-yard Dark Island.

Scocha are now headed across the pond to New York for Tartan Week !

Many thanks to all who sponsored Pour1Malt and/or myself to participate as a fundraiser for The Rock Trust.

Be sure to visit here again tomorrow to view Pour1Malt's photos, which are sure to be better than mine, and will include some kilted group photos.

Glad to see so many kilts out and about. Not sure that I'm keen on those 21st Century pockets though. Oh well to each, his own.

Great pics Alex and nice to see the lovely blue sky over Edinburgh! I never seem to be quite so lucky!

I spotted Bill on the walk, my guide from Stirling Castle too!

And I agree about the 21st Century pockets they could do with taking some leaves out of Union Kilts book with the design!

AWESOME PICTURES! I can't wait to go there in the summer so I can return the favor and post a few pics myself. Thanks!
