    You want stimulating?? You should visit Canada sometime in the middle January! -20 to -30deg plus wind chill for weeks. Then every once in a while it will get cold. Eyes water, nose runs, skin stings then itches. Short days. Heavy heating bills. No thanx! Do my legs get cold in the depths of winter when I'm in a kilt? Dammm right they do! Kilt or no kilt I'll take any season but winter.

    good health

    I wore a kilt year round. It has been cold here and loads of snow, upon reflection, I didn't have a cold or flu like symptoms at all this year.
    I also have MS and since wearing a kilt the attacks have been reduced greatly.
    So here's to good health and stay kilted!
    Cheers

    I agree, fall and winter is great, especially here in the NW. The cool rain and wind on me legs really envigorates. Makes me look forward to the coming day.

    How ever I also love my kilt in the current "hot" spell we have going the past couple days....heck, it's been in the high 80s and 90s!

    Bear, please don't push Graham too hard on this one. I fear that we will be again subjected to another tale about his leaky plumbing.

    I used to wear Shorts in the winter and kilts are warmer than shorts.
