    Andrew, that's what I thought. I would not worry about the cold if I were going to be doing anything even moderately strenuous. It is the out walking the dog, from the car to the office, etc times that I am concerned with. Luckily, most of those times are over quickly and back inside. Will have to decide whether I will take the kids sledding while kilted!

    Oh, if you're moving about at all, I wouldn't worry about it. I was only chilly when I was sitting still outside in the freezing weather for three hours. And it wasn't because I was wearing the kilt - I got the sleeping bag idea from trousered hiking friends!

    Andrew.
