    Rugby Kiltie in Paris

    I found a shot that shows how tricky the Paris Metro can be for visiting Scots. I hope this one does not offend - I have kept the size small and the angle is protective of modesty. As a regular visiter to Paris especially for rugby matches supporting Scotland's National team one needs to keep one's wits about one. A 'fashion' kilt would be useless and would let the side down when dealing with the Metro blast of hot air. Vivre le kilt traditionale !

    No pic but I got caught at a wedding last year. It was at a coastal castle and I was stupid enough to walk through the doorway in the wall that lead to the marina, the hem of the rear of the kilt hit the back of my head in front of the almost all the wedding guests. My brother almost collapsed he laughed so hard. Great photos guys.

    Warning Warning Warning

    Sylvana - your "friend" Ted has a very cruel side to him. He KNOWS how lovely you are, and how distant, and he INSISTS on torturing me with repeat postings of your photo.

    Please be careful with this most sadistic man....

    Oh were I there to protect you from him.....

    My heart yearns...

    On second thought, I am... cruel and sadistic ... Hoo ha ha ha ha...

    Ah, I'm just teasing with you Ron. Syl is my best friend, and a very nice person, so I will remove that thorn from your side... I mean, her picture from your thread.

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…

    No Jay. Generally, I do not wear the sporran when dressed casually - unless I have no other pockets.

    There is sooooo much more to the beauty of kilts than hanging with perfectly aligned pleats. Kilts look so beautiful dancing in the wind!

    It is one of Kinloch Anderson's 'Breacans', Ron - a lightweight casual kilt in their corporate tartan. The Kollection contains four of those Breacans - the other three being: The Tartan Army tartan, their own corporate Hunting tartan and the City of Edinburgh tartan.

    Take care,
    Ham.

    I don't have any pictures of my 'Kilt in the wind' incidents. YET, at least.

    But I do want to say, how cool is it that Hamish still manages to look absolutely dashing even in the wind?
    What a man.
