But I think Shay, MacSimoin and I all agree that no good can come of it if you get involved.
BTW, sorry I haven't been here, I'd like to point out that I did say don't give any advice, which I thought would translate as, "Don't get involved." Which isn't the same as none of your business, since he has talked to you and his wife has talked to your wife, which kind of made it your business.

If he asks for your advice again, just say something like, "It sounds like the kilt is a possible source of contention here, maybe you and your wife should talk more about it, you two would know each other better than I would!" If he asks for practical pointers, like how to buy a kilt or something like that, go ahead and discuss what you've bought and how you wear it... that way you're merely talking about your own preferences and not (as his wife might think) lambasting him for acquiescing to his wife's wishes for the time being or goading him to do something he may not be ready for on all fronts...
