We went to the Frederick Celtic Festival yesterday, and had a great time, I will post about that elsewhere. This is a rant.

During the opening ceremonies, most of the clans with booths had a group with a banner marching while the pipe bands played. One of the clans had a person, carrying the banner!, with his kilt on backwards, with the pleats in front and the aprons in the back. Now I have only been wearing kilts regularly for about a year, and he to might have been new. But WHY didn't someone take him aside and help the poor fellow out? And him out there representing the clan? I don't understand.
