Barb, that is the best yet! It brought back memories from my years of dancing in the demonstration team of the London branch of the RSCDS. Sticky paste, double-sided sticky tape; you name it and I daresay it has been used at the last minute before stepping into the limelight!
As I have stated before, I will not wear those Ghillie brogues. They look dreadful; few guys seem to be able to do them up so that they look neat and tidy, and, in any case, they are not traditional at all. [Oooops! Having said that, I suppose I should stop wearing my kilt pins!]
All my kilted life, I have worn only ordinary, highly-polished, black brogues with my formal dress outfits BUT, I have just ordered a pair of the Glenfinnan buckled shoes from Mackenzie Frain. They will make a difference, I'm sure.
