As soon as they got one look at us in full formal, prince charlie jackets and tux shirts, they were sold also.
We had so much fun! From cat calls from a table of girls at dinner to 70yr old ladies asking what we had under them we had great fun.
I was then hooked. I now own 3 kilts, one formal & two casual, the prince charlie jacket and vest and 3 sporrans.
We can't wait until our next cruise.......

I've warn my kilt on 3 cruises over the last 3 years and will be again next week when I'm off to Iceland! There has always been a few other guys kilted on the formal nights and occasionally casually after that.

I was challenged once by a drunken Scot who implied I had no right to wear mine, but I put him in his place and frankly told him where to go!!!

Walking on the prom deck, with a warm sea breeze swirling round your ankles is a wonderful feeling. I will endeavour to get some pics and post.
