Yesterday we went for a full days walk with some friends to a remote waterfall in the hills that you can walk behind. It been so cold here in Wales at present, (as it has throughout the UK), we thought it might have started to freeze over. When we left the car it was -4 and crossing the moors was into a good head wind. But my Cilt/Wool socks etc kept me totally warm throughout the whole trip. Took us about two hours walking to get there and once we had reached the waterfall it started snowing quite heavy and did continue to do so until we got back to the car. We didn't spend to long at the falls as with the weather setting in we wanted to get back to the car before it got dark. We had parked next to a small one room farmers pub. On our return to the car I went immediately into the pub for a pint. There were 8 men in there drinking. All local people ... aged 40 to 70. They all greeted me with open arms and took no notice whatsover that I was wearing a Cilt. I took all my jackets off, relaxed and just settled in by the roaring fire they had going with my pint. The landlord went and got a few pictures he had taken of the waterfalls back in 60's. Then the wife came in to join me .. the others stayed in the car having coffee. All I can say to anyone who is unsure about wearing their Cilt/Kilt at times ... don't worry about it and just do it .. it really does work. Heres a few pictures.
