    Happened to me by getting the upper half of the back caught in the sporran belt. Walked all the way through the mall before seeing the problem in one of those big mirrors in the department store. No wonder I got some giggles from the perfume department; they could have said something ...

    At least someone told you about it Ron, I know of some that would have let it go all day if they could.

    Wearing such a garment-there are always new and exciting adventures-but they are rare.

    With my new Highland Granite-new and still stiff-when out with herself I managed to sit on the pleats-so those at the back were heading towards my waist instead of the ground.

    It being new and scratchy I was wearing the JD underkilt-anyway herself was delighted: and had much fun making suggestions as to lace petticoats-frilly knickers and the like.

    I buried her yesterday.

    On occasion things will go wrong, be it a high wind or a slight lack of care-it happens: there is only one answer-enjoy the joke and join in the laughter.

    Thanks Binx and James!

    See, I ain't the only one ;)

    What I'm troubled with now are visions...do they still hold the old fun Doo Dah Parades anywhere???

    Visions of kilted bagpipers ALL with the back of their kilts so caught up "smiling" back at the crowd as buxom ladies ran amoungst them slathering sunscreen on their cheeks....

    Well, you were wearing it proud!


    My brother (30+ years ago) worked for a department store in CA and did special fashion shows as a model.
    The woman who was supervising the show changed a model who was black because he was going to walk the runway with a white woman. (It was a wedding wear show)
    My brother was teed-off, so after he was checked out (before walking the runway) he unzipped his fly and pulled out his tux shirt about 2 inches out of his fly, and walked the runway. When he turned to return, the woman finally saw and her jaw just about hit the floor. Yes she was very mad at him.

    This couldn't happen to a pipe band. I can't imagine how it's possible to get the bottom of a kilt caught in the belt without doing it deliberately, and then the bulk would be too noticable to miss. Even if I grab the bootm of the back of any of my kilts and pull it straight up there's enough material in the pleats that everything stays covered. A Utilikilt is a different animal.

    Re: Doo dah parades... We have one in Columbus. I don't remember when but I know there is one.

    And Ron - I think you just found another possible reason to wear that underkilt thing.
