Last of the snow

We had a nice snow storm yesterday, today 56 degrees and the snow melted (typical Virginia weather).

Here is a picture of me in my WPG Gordon kilt, hose, and sporran.
The sweater is a Shetland wool in Loden, I thought the color combinations looked pretty good.

Looks good David, ain't they warm?

**David White** · 18th January 08, 03:01 PM

Yes indeed! It was a very comfortable outfit to wear. I know the WPG kilt is alittle rough but thats what it was made for.

It's a natural, and you show it.

Now that looks fantastic.
I want that sweater!

Looks very sharp!

56° in Virginia? Forget this clanging when I walk to the corner I moving to Virginia!

Yes David, that is a really good example of colour co-ordination. Well done! However, if I were to be really picky (which I am not!!) I might question the black boots worn with a brown sporran - or was it a brown sporran worn with black boots?! Seriously, you show us an excellent example of just how well a military kilt can be worn casually.

As for weather: here in the south of England we have had more than our share of heavy frosts this winter but, as yet (and there is still plenty of time) no snow. We've also had far more rain than we are entitled to, with many areas of England and Wales currently suffering severe flooding. Regarding temperatures: as I sit here at 12.40am, the temperature outside is 55ºF - ridiculously high for this time of night in mid-January.

Take care,
Ham.

Thank you Ham,

I was wearing the black boots because the snow was melting and they are the most water-proof boots I have-was going to put on browns but didn't want to get my feet soaked!

Actually, I guessed it was something like that, David, and I confess to having done similar myself many times over the years.

Take care,
