I'll see if I can get a piccie of it....

I made a point of looking at the pre-match ceremony on TV, David. The Rugby holds no interest at all for me, although it was our school game (way back in pre-history!), but I knew the pipe-bands would be in evidence and, hopefully, plenty of kilts in the stadium. Darius' appearance was a bonus. I've seen him many times previously in kilts, but the one he wore today was spectacular: navy blue with the Cross of St.Andrew 'stencilled (?) across the pleats at the back. The same Cross design was also on the front of his sporran and on the buckle of his belt.
Unfortunately, the whole thing was spoiled by the sports commentators prattling away throughout!
