just ordered my first kilt

I'll tell ya this, with you re-joining bachelorhood, you couldn't have picked a better time to be kilted!!

As a general rule, most women find a gent in a kilt to be far more attractive than most anyone in pants (it pains me to say the word!).

I've a feeling you'll be living the high life before too long! Be sure to get a good sporran, belt, kilt pin, hose, PC....

Welcome, Phil, from Vancouver Island, Canada. I can appreciate what life might be like for you right now - I endured/enjoyed similar things over 10 years ago. Enjoy the change in your life and your new kilt when it comes. BTW, what did you order?

Cheers,
David

Just a black UK original. Something basic to give it a try.

Got my first kilt at 52 so you're doing better than me! Welcome to the board and our little but growing corner. You'll be glad you wore the kilt the first time you head out to the local watering hole, the ladies LOVE them. You'll get some wise comments but for the most part the ladies LOVE them. Oh, by the way, did I mention that the ladies love the kilts?

You know, I hate to be a spoilsport.....but.....

I don't drink and having just been through a divorce I thought I would leave the ladies alone for a while.

I think I just want to be a kilted computer geek.

Gee.....I was hoping to just wear a kilt instead of shorts. Can I just wear it plain?

Just exactly does a kilt pin do for you? Where does it go? Who sells them?

A UK is normally worn plain, so go for it.

Since you didn't mention what it was, the group got all accessory happy on you. Enjoy the UK

Welcome from the Windy City!

Welcome, Phil! I'm also a computer geek & 50 year old native Phoenician who started wearing a UK Original regularly 3 years ago. Me thinks we may have a few things in common... :rolleyes:

There's another 'X'er who's on regularly who's a techie here in the Valley of the Sun - Caradoc.

Sounds like the 3 of us should get together sometime, along with the owner of Arizona Kilts & my Scottish bandmate - 5 guys in kilts walkin' into a pub at the same time, folks'll think there's a Highland Games goin' on!

I'll send you a PM...
