    Ooh! That's easy! Find the gal that most floats your boat, and ask her for her help, e.g., "Hi, I'm Frog - I'm sorta new to this kilt thing, and while I really like wearing it, I'm a bit flustered trying to figure out how to sit without flashing - how do you do it?" Dunno if ya wanna call yourself Frog, tho...

    Tapadh leibh, Hamish!

    While my first Kilt soon to be arriving that was a question that was starting to pop into my head. Now thanks to the wonderful video I'll be all set, one less thing to wonder about.

    I have been sweeping and pushing the aprons and still get from the women, want to teach you how to sit with a skirt. Well, the reply is, of course , it's not a skirt, it's a kilt!

    Hamish,

    Thanks for the video, it is wonderfully helpful. It is also a delight to see and hear you in action.

    Well done and thanks,

    the one handed sweep

    The only person I ever saw sitting down in a kilt-like garment when I was a youngster was my mum. I learned the single handed sweep from her. Imagine my surprise when a kilted fellow accused me of sitting like a 'lady'. I asked him, how else do you sit in a kilt. He replied 'with the wrinkles"!

    OK, OK...that's the easy part, but when you are trying to get into the car or truck, it's not as easy. Any hints on perfecting seating oneself in the driver's seat of a vehicle?
