    I do understand that you have no wish to offend your hosts, that is a always what one tries to do and that is an international intention that we all can agree on. To my mind though one should not divert ones dress codes one fraction of an inch from what you have been accustomed to do. That way you can show those from afar how it should be done in the Home Country, the only concession that I think is reasonable, is taking note of the climate which is on occasion a lot hotter, or colder than anything Scotland can come up with. I do also concede that those from these shores that have been guided by hire companies here do not help in showing how its done to those from abroad, which makes it all the more important that those that really do know how to dress in the kilt properly should make as few concessions as possible, anywhere.

    If I had the talent, I would consider doing what Isaacw did with his fly plaid...turn it into a waist coat! While I don't dislike the look, it is a piece of regalia that tends to hang in my closet.
