My first 'casual' kilted outing, and my first 'question'

[McClef]

The first time is always the most difficult, it's a psychological barrier - standing out from the crowd and their expectations about what they expect to see.

Now the local shops expect to see me kilted and would ask me where it was if I turned up in jeans!

Daily Kilting on a US Army installation is quite the experience, and involves getting strange looks from pretty much everyone. Although the practicality and comfort level more than make up for this.

Steve, I hadn't realised that you had not done 'the casual' before! So, "Well done" and here's to the next time ...... like tomorrow?

'Casual' in one form or another is my daily dress, although I have not done the scrunched-down hose for several months. That's more of a summer thing for me these days! Maybe I have been doing the everyday kilt exercises for so long (it'll be 8 years in May since I last wore trousers - anywhere) that I am totally oblivious to 'looks', and I very, very seldom get any compliments or comments of any kind (All together now: "Awwwww!") So, if you are getting them, that's great!
