Do you color coordinate your knee pads with all your kilts? Knees pads are good even when wearing pants but very important with a kilt. Thanks for the insight.

Too right I would, Gray!
I also wear knee pads, especially when gardening. If I didn't, my knees would carry the impression of whatever I was kneeling on for at least 24 hours - even grass - and I would probably be semi-crippled for the same period of time!! Kneeling is not actually very good for the over 70s, but it is the only way I can get down to work at ground level.

May I suggest one of these Ham?

Knee pads are an important consideration, even in pants.
Last weekend I went paintballing in my kilt, and of course I wore kneepads. I also had tall wool socks pulled up, so naturally one time while sliding behind cover I scratched the heck out my leg right between the two.
I now have a huge scabbed over brush-burn about 4x4 on my that I am hoping goes away before the wedding next week.

Do you think Ham could get her to do his gardening? I'd let her work on my garden any time.

Many thanks for that, Grant. I DO use something similar (not the 'occupant', you understand! If I used her, my neighbours would definitely be fearing the worst!!), but it is the handles that are so helpful when getting up. The fact that one is kneeling a couple of inches above the ground - and one is still kneeling - makes very little difference. I am still left with an impression of the kneeling pad on my knees!!!
