An interesting observation about not many kilted spectators. I have to admit that I have never been to a "games" at Harpenden, so I cannot speak from knowledge, but I think we need to remember that the "games" are held in deepest of deepest "England-shire"(not very far from London) so with the best will in the world there will not be many kilts lurking in many of the households of the spectators.

I am not a regular visitor to Highland Games in Scotland, but I did venture to the Blair Atholl(one of the foremost games) games this year and I get get the impression that more kilts were being worn by spectators than before, but even then the kilted proportion would not be high.
