    A kilt with a sporran cannot be mistaken for a skirt.

    Also, his jacket didn't seem to be cut for kilt-wearing.

    Two faux pas.

    He was wearing a standard jacket (at least the colors worked).

    As for the lack of sporran...

    I thought hie wife summed it up nicely:

    "A skirt is a skirt, and a kilt is a kilt"

    Kilt on a ladder was great. Couldn't stop laughing.

    I really appreciated Pittance of Time too. It managed to get the message across, and articulate what a lot of people feel.

    As for the lack of a sporran on 7th Heaven; Who cares? It's Hollywood. They seldom get anything right. I think we should just be happy a kilt was shown in a positive light. Besides, as has been said already, a kilt is a kilt. If a sporran was so important they'd have come with them.
