Quite right Jamie,I did say that Highland attire need not look too "planned and contrived", but there are limits you know! I think that this thread demonstrates,in general terms, perfectly, how people are unaware of how others think.Generally speaking people, your side of the Atlantic seem to stretch the kilt wearing boundaries without being aware that some people this side of the Atlantic are tearing their hair out! What are we to do about it? Just sit there and nod sagely? Well, we could, but we (well alright me at the moment))try to gently point out and inform and I hope, those that want to listen will be better informed, even if people choose to ignore it later, which is of course their right. Only trying to help,you know!
