Last I was in that same airport, I saw three other men in kilts. One was an American who had just returned from visiting his grandmother and looked quite good, although casual, in his choice. A very pleasant conversation.

The second man was a Scot who was going to Rotterdam, I think, to visit friends. He still had his basting stitches in.

The third was also a Scot who was from someplace on Skye. Being that I was after spending a week there, we had ourselves a nice conversation -- even tried to communicate in our various Gaelics (he: Scottish and me, Irish). That was very enjoyable. With the exception of Mr Basting Stitches above, the two others were chatty and very comfortable in their gear. Mr Basting Stitches nodded hello and walked on.

Good luck with your event,
