    Kilted Ping Pong

    Hi All,

    On Father's Day my wife snapped this picture of me when I was playing ping pong with my Dad. (Before anyone asks it wasn't even close match, he stomped me). Sunburn is courtsey of the Campbell Highland games. My kilted outfits tend to lean toward the dressier side, this is one of my favorite casual kilted outfits. Have at folks. What do you think?



    Cheers

    Obviously playing by english rules...

    scottish rules call for a paddle the size of a war shield, smashing a spiked iron ball over a table made of stone...and a dram o' scotch for each point, two for the one scored upon!

    ( after all, who else made a sport out of throwing trees!)


    silly english, making things so easy...

    Looks good, very casual. Also like seeing Sinbad in the background giving you moral support.

    What's with wearing a hat indoors?

    I think a t-shirt gives it a more casual look, so I wouldnt wear my hose up and flashes with aT', maybe a polo shirt, or some kind of collar shirt, but with a T' I push my hose down.

    I agree with Inaki...Personally, I'd lose the flashes and push those hose down. Also, wear the hat indoors if you want to; you're obviously not in the military and therefore not in uniform, so I can't see making an issue of it at all (unless it was a cowboy hat or something even more inappropriate, IMO).

    Regardless, Panache, you look great as always. Thanks for sharing.

    About the hat...

    When I saw my wife was going to take a picture I pulled my rolled up beret out of my UK's pocket I put it on (try doing that with your average sporran).

    But I do stand corrected, gentlemen should never never wear their hats indoors.

    Cheers
