    .....If we only got 6 inches here in Norway it would be a mild winter indeed

    I'm often faced with several feet in the mornigs and Often have to wade up to my knees while clearing snow. Nothing will get me out of my snow scooter suit while clearing that lot.

    However I'll try some walking around outside this year...Last year when my kilt was new I just walked from the car to the church, or to and from where we where going.

    Andrews story does also bring the point of "Why do we always asume it's us " That people are refering to. If Andrew was in Trousers ,and this woman had made the same comment. He no doubt would just have replied "Yes it Is " or somthing (Or Checked his Zipper... Thats right lads remember thoose )

    Anyway must Dash got snow to clear
    All the Best.....David.

    [quote="Al G. Sporrano"]I posted this before, but this thread seems like the perfect place to post it again. There's about 6" of snow already on the ground in this shot. Sorry for the poor quality of the photo...

    It looks for sure that you will get to enjoy the kilts a lot more this winter than your bike. By the weay, Have you tried riding while kilted? If I was still riding, I don't think that I would, for safety reasons. They would just not offer any road rash protection in case of an accident.

    I've only been out, other than highland games and festivals, but a couple of times while kilted so far. Now that it is getting cold, I will probably only even consider it when the temperatures are above 60 deg.F. Since I had chemo therapy, I have a lot of trouble wither either extreme in temperature (hot or cold) I guess the teatments left my old blood a bit thin.
