The Highland gentlemen (and peers) that I've met seem to be a pretty hardy, heat-tolerant bunch, despite the fact that weather in Scotland is generally much cooler than here in the South. In most cases, even in upper 80's/mid 90's heat they tend to keep their jackets on for the "official bits" of Games attendance. That being said, when it comes to really blistering temperatures they remove their jackets, although I've rarely seen them remove their ties or roll their sleeves.
