    They will search your sporran however
    They wont search your pockets though. Of the dozens of times I've been there, I have never had my pockets searched, but they do check the sporran. Since I can fit my sporran INSIDE my UK pockets that just seems silly, but thats how it is.

    It is not a privacy violation to subject a bag to search, however it IS a violation of your privacy to subject your body (including the clothes you are wearing) without just cause to a search. If they suspected you of stealing something, or concealing a dangerous weapon they might search you, but even then they usually wait for the local PD to show up and do it.

    Now, the sense of checking a "bag" that sits right above my genitals but not wanting to check a pocket that hangs freely from my hip is just silly, but it works to your advantage.

    OK, I'm envious! I wish my wife would just be OK with my kilt wearing, let alone buy me a new one! In her defense, she did get me a kilt pin last Xmas. However, said pin was more a fly plaid brooch (I need to post pics), although based on the website, you could not tell that. And of course she did not know the difference without outside information.

    I'm a very lucky man. :mrgreen:

    KCW,

    You should get yourself a Glengarry or Balmoral and proudly display the brooch on that as the cap badge. Make sure to point out how glad you are to get to wear it now.

    Cheers
