    National Kilt Walk in Scotland

    This is from The Scotsman (Edinburgh Evening News), but, sadly, this is all the information given:

    Check out the National Kilt Walk

    HUNDREDS of kilted Scots are set to walk through the Capital in a bid to raise thousands of pounds for charity.

    The National Kilt Walk, inspired by New York's Tartan Day Parade, will be held on April 2.

    Not sure what to think about this...

    Always good to raise funds for charity, but...

    -Is it that special to walk kilted?
    -Hundreds?...not thousands?

    This sponsored walk is being organised to raise funds to help Edinburgh's homeless and everyone who completes it will receive a commemorative TFCK Kilt Pin!!!

    There are more details at:

    http://www.kiltwalk.org/

    I might find myself in Edinburgh at about that time!!!

    (PS: It is a very short walk)

    Seems like an easy way to make a few charity dollars. A lot on x-marks wear a kilt and take a stroll every day. If you can raise money that way that's great.
