My friend, who did have a small child with her, wanted to sit on the grass, which was full of dead twigs etc. I knew my low quality hose and kilt would be ruined if I were to sit on the grass. So, I was going to stand as they sat down beside me. I realized that would be not so good of an idea, so I made sure my kilt was well wrapped around the back of my legs and well tucked and placed in front, then squatted down and sat on my heels basically. It looked a little odd, I'm sure, but all was well.

After that, I began keeping a large cloth, bigger than a handkerchief, in my sporran to spread out on what ever I may be sitting on when I wore a kilt.

* "wee trews," from MOR.
