    Kilts and Stilts


    At the shopping mall today on the last Saturday before Christmas.
    There were very few people out shopping but Ann met a very tall gentleman.

    So Ann took a Kilts and Stilts photo of our wee group.

    Annan Royal British Legion Pipe Band were playing some good tunes despite the cold weather and lack of an audience. Their tartan is Black Stewart.
    Regional Director for Scotland for Clan Cunningham International, and a Scottish Armiger.

    Interesting pleating on the Black Stewart, and your friend seems to be the exception that proves the rule regarding flat caps and kilts.

    The pleating makes a major contrast between front and back especially with the side on shots.

    Another nice set of piccies there Alex!

    When I read the title, I thought that you were walking around and stilts while wearing a Kilt.

    Those are pretty neat pictures.

    Navy blue with Black Stewart and looking very sharp. Where is Nighthawk, he has been vindicated. I still wouldn't wear a tie with a polo shirt however.

    I was looking at your kilt but can't see any straps or kilt pin! it isn't a....
    (can I use the sk - word here? ) It does look good, where did u get it? Is it a contemporary kilt I've never seen before? Must have cost a fortune. I was thinking about a Mountain Kilt a while ago but I'm not such a fan of khaki... :crap:

    www.guiltykilts.com look great too. I have to get used to these prices though...
