Lovely photos of the children, Rob, and "well done" to you and your wife for keeping their heritage alive for them.
As for your ensemble! As you know, I am NOT a fan of brightly coloured or highly decorative shirts (I'm thinking Hawaiian here) with even plain kilts but, under the circumstances and remembering the event, that shirt actually works well with that kilt ....... however (and here comes the "but"!), suddenly - from the knees down - it all goes wrong! Sorry, but this is how I am seeing it. I cannot tell whether your hose are black or navy, but whichever they are, they are too 'strong' and dominate your appearance. Of course, we are very limited with hose colours that are available, but I'd have thought that something like Lovat Blue would be a huge improvement and the 'walking boots' look slightly incongruous with your dressy, evening-out top! Polished, black shoes would look much nicer.
My apologies, if I have 'got out of the wrong side of my bed' this morning (!!), but your hose and footwear hit me the moment I saw the photos - and I had to say something. You do know that there is not a drop of malice in me, I hope!!
It looks like you had a great evening of celebration anyway, and the girls certainly appear to have had a good time. Well done!
