Glasgow awash with kilts
The big match on Saturday, Scotland v Czech Republic, in the European Championship brought a full house to Hampden Park and flooded the city centre with legions of the Tartan Army, if you were not kilted, you weren't quoted.
unfortunately we did not get the result we wanted a 2-2 each draw is not enough and we probably won't get to the finals next year.
One thing about the Tartan Army is their dress sense, from the sublime to the ridiculous, with many more different tartans on show than you would see at 'the Worlds' a few weeks ago in Glasgow.
For ideas on how to wear the kilt and what accessories that you should wear with the kilt then innovation and creative development would shame the best fashion houses in Europe, the Tartan Army is splendid and truly sartorial in their multitudes at a major footballing event in their home city.
I would suggest that it would be a great experience and learning curve for any kilted person to visit Glasgow at such an event. The different kilts, the footwear and hose or without hose, the shirts either formal or informal , the headgear, its all their to see and gaze in wonder.
Tomorrow night Scotland play again at Hampden in Glasgow and if we had won on Saturday, a full house would have been guaranteed and the city centre packed with kilties but now the attendance will be small and less kilts on show. Its a pity for anyone in the area would have enjoyed the kilted extravaganza that the Tartan Army provide
