For your amusement....

Every time I see this picture I laugh now that I see how much of a dork I looked like.......

Hey, it's not bad at all. Actually, I like it, even with the white hose. Don't be so hard on yourself!

[Panache]

We all start somewhere. In comparison to my first attempt you look great



But then we talk with and read the advice of those in the know and learn.

In the end we put it all together with our own sense of who we are



Wouldn't Life be boring if we knew everything at the beginning and had no chance to grow and develop?

No, no- he looks like a dork. Don't be so nice all the time! Jeez...

Just kidding...

Actually, you do look like your head is about to pop off because of how tightly you have the shirt tied up. But otherwise, I'd say you look good. (And I personally don't like Black Watch unless you're ex military. It's so generic, everyone in the world has something made from it! My wife has a Black Watch throw pillow that she had way before she ever even heard the word "tartan." Just my own personal bias though!)

J.S.

You do realize that that hat is refered to affectationately in our home as "The Jock Scot Hat" or "Jock's Hat"?

Panache and his pith helmets are both historic and practical...one never knows when he'll need a soup bowl.

At least we all had our pleats in the back the first time! When I see pics like that I have to wonder what they were thinking.

[DrDialtone]

Yeah! Not bad! Gotta start somewhere!!

[Scotcop]

True Jamie, never thought of this subject in that context.....but still, looks funny...

[Bigkahuna]

I've seen worse. Heck......I've been worse!

[bchunter]

Bigkahuna says he's been worse: I still am worse most days! You're just fine.

I remember when you first posted the picture. I'm not sure I ever would have wanted to look like that myself, however, the only thing I noticed at the time was that you were obviously thrilled with your first kilt. You had started on a lifelong journey and were taking baby steps. Now you can look at yourself and chuckle, secure in the knowledge that you're making progress and are happy with yourself.

Good for you!!
