Thank you Graham for your welcoming comments.

I found the board and all the interesting and amazing comments-thanks to starting to think about a new kilt-when pockets failed on favourite hillwalker-and loose change passed from hand to ground. Then as happened roamed from site to site looking at prices etc and wandered-here I am!

Sorry, but I'm not that English.

Since appearing here-I've had a lot of fun wandering through the various letters, so can add a bit more.

Possibly due to having worn a kilt for so long-whilst it is my wear of choice: I do not get carried away by a need to wear it every day-rather it depends on what I'm doing, the mood of the moment and so on: even shock horror I might feel like wearing trousers that day. [Do I get shot for that or merely escape with a week in the salt mines?]

A bit more shock horror-I found a new word 'regimental': a glance at the dress regulations suggests qualification with: which regiment and when?

As for a picture-I have enough problems with an old fashioned camera.

The cheering thing is that from reading the letters more and more men are enjoying the choice of wearing a kilt: and that is really what it is all about. Being able to excise a choice that cannot harm anyone, and adds a bit of fun and colour to the world.
