I know bowlers are still seen on ceremonial occasions such as Remembrance Day parades so maybe the wrong choice of example. My father in law used to wear a top hat to funerals as late as the 1960's. But you know what I am getting at and I would far rather see kilts being worn, albeit if not entirely correctly, than not at all.
Oh I know it's no good doing the King Canute bit Phil, but I really do not like the modern way that kilt attire is worn. Its the "old dog new tricks" thing, I suppose and inevitably people will do what they will do. Still it is nice to know that even today, some are interested in how it used to be done.
