1 July 1782
1 July 1782 was the date on which the infamous Act Proscribing the Wearing of Highland Dress was repealed. I invite all XMarks people to raise their glasses in just over a week to celebrate the unlamented passing of that Act, which, ironically, in its demise paved the way for the widespread wearing of the kilt that we enjoy today.
