Again, most excellent and useful information! Thank you!

Yeah thanks for the info Jock! I really had no idea how often the Scots were going about kilted. We'll have to get ourselves over to Twickenham stadium to see more kilts being worn. Seriously I wonder if the kilts are becoming more popular in the UK. They seem to be here in the US.

Actually, Jock Scot, Americans over here tend to wear the kilt hose and flashes to games, even with hiking boots. When I've seen the scrunched hose, it was the Scottish Nationals/Ex-Pats (those who live in the US) usually wearing them. It got to the point in which that was how I could distinguish them from Americans. Now, a lot more of both are wearing them that way.

Oh, I quite understand that people in warmer climes have to adapt, that makes very good sense. Warmer climes are not something that we suffer from-----yet!
