Well, yesterday was a nice day; warm, but with a nice breeze. A breeze though, that turned into 20-30 mph winds. Nevertheless, I wanted my afternoon walk (as did the dogs) and so I was having it.

I donned my 16oz trad (sans kilt pin and sporran - since I own neither), and wandered out into the wind. Quite gusty, even to the point that I felt I could sing full volume as I walked an no-one would hear me unless they were stood next to me, I wondered whether today might see my first occasion of having to keep my kilt down. I wandered in every direction, uphill, downhill, and although I had some front apron flapping, and some extra swish at the back, the gusts fail to lift my kilt.

I begin to wonder what it takes to have one's kilt lifted by the wind. As for you guys who have experienced such - were you courting El Nino?

Perhaps such only occurs with lighter weight kilts or non-trads?
