    Belt Faux-Pas

If he did not serve in the "Brigade" and full marks to him if he did, by the way, could you at least ask him to wear it properly!!! The buckle is worn on the left hip, PLEASE.---------------- Better still, take it off.

    Sorry chaps, but I would not dream of wearing your Marine Corps badge, for example.
    I thought that was a Guards stable belt and wondered when Jock Scot would chip in! It acually looks quite good with the kilt, though I would never dare wear it myself; besides I have a much better one, Ubique!

    I'm twenty-three, and five feet nine, I'll go and be a sodger!

    Well Mein, I'm glad to see you are treating the Saltire to a good time while it is visiting you.
