    Non-Kilted activities?

    Now that I have been a kilted full time for a few years, I got to thinking.

    What activities would you not wear a kilt to? Don't list job, as that is beyond your control, in most cases.

    Here is my current list:

    SCUBA Diving
    Nudest Camp

    Last time I went outdoors not kilted was one mild day in early November when I ventured out to the garden in shorts for an hour or so to do some tidying up. The last time I wore long trousers was last time I conducted a case before the Sheriff at Jedburgh last September, as I always wear my black heavyweight kilt when sitting in the Magistrates Court. Having said that our aviation museum is introducing new uniforms this season which include a blue shirt, necktie and black trousers, so I shall be wearing trousers while on duty at the airport a few days per month, starting in March. The new owners of the airport have a reputation in Europe for their clean and well turned out vehicles, trains and aircraft, and their smartly dressed employees, from the truck drivers in Eddie Stobart Road Haulage, through Stobart Rail's freight train activities and Stobart Air's small fleet of jet aircraft, and the full time staff at the airport all got smart new uniforms last summer. As Stobarts are our major sponsors they would like the volunteers to uphold the company image, and as they having given so much help to our aviation museum I feel its a small sacrifice to fit in with the black trousers policy while on duty around the airport. Though this does not extend to my flying, which is a private activity, so I shall still be kilted while at the airport if not on museum duties.

    I wouldn't stand on the CN Tower glass floor kilted or not kilted!

    Well for me riding my motorcycle is a non kilted activity.

    Call me a coward, but I went to a comedy club the other night in trousers. There are times when one really doesn't want to call attention to oneself.

    I don't wear minde deer hunting. The tree stand safety harness fastens around my thighs. And I don't wear for bowling. I haven't worn for golf yet, but I am thinking about it.

    I really think you're safe on the Toronto tower glass floor...it's quite a ways up there. It's too high for me to walk on kilted or not.
