In the press in the past few days is the stushie caused by former First Minister, Jack McConnell criticising our current First Minister, Wee Eck, about his tartan trews he wore last week in Hollywood (not Holyrood) at the release of the film 'Brave'.

Can anyone forget the image of McConnell at few years back at Tartan Week in New York in his pin stripe skirt without sporran (I would not call what he wore a kilt). Sure Wee Eck did not look so grand in his tartan trews but he certainly was not the figure of fun that McConnell was.

Anyway, personally I would never be seen dead in tartan trews, why will people not wear the kilt which suits almost every type of build including Wee Eck's/

PS - The Scottish premiere of Brave is this Saturday in Edinburgh
