GG - whether you agree with Craig from Slanj or not, he is simply stating the facts as they relate to the majority of Scots which, after all, is what the article is about. Howie Nicholsby is very much in the minority. I know this comes as an unwelcome revelation to many who have an image of the stereotypical Scot, clad in tartan from head to toe, striding through heather-clad glens giving it laldy on the bagpipes. But it just isn't true.
I know. I have been to Scotland, too, and haven't practically seen any men in kilts, apart from outside a church on a Saturday afternoon and a kilted guide at a whisky destillery.
Nevertheless, what I'm against, or should I say, cannot understand from a strategic point of view is that a man who is making his living from kilt making is up front working at maintaining business as is (and even accept a decline if not brought to life) rather than (trying to) make it grow.
At least, if he is of the opion that people should wear his and other kilt maker's produce as little as possible (and he is in his good right to feel it that way), he did better not tell it in public.
Cannot help it, if he was on my payroll he had stopped by now.
