Kilts in gusty winds!

[LeeAnne]

As you may know Scotland has recently had unseasonal windy weather for May (normally it just rains )

Last night my man's rugby club had a night out - we were all in the team tops, with the girls in jeans and all the boys in kilts (I've already posted on this strange combo). Well it was a VERY windy night.

I'm saying NOTHING else except I never laughed so much in my life! Boys in kilts in the wind! Yaaaay!

I am pretty sure he didn't mean it that way...of course, nevermind.

Speak for yourself mate...

Seconded!!

Personally, I've not had too many problems with the wind, and it gets pretty windy in Colorado in the spring! I did have issues with wind when I went to the Grand Canyon and walked out on the bridge... Otherwise, I've found that my 8 yard, 16 oz double box pleat kilt handles most wind rather well.

The snag is most of the guys were in cheapie versions which is wise for a night drinking and generally getting plastered. But cheapie versions catch the breeze more readily. Not that this girlie is complaining, nor are any of my friends...

Never fear, no pictures are suitable for sharing on a family site!

Ahhh, you know I have never had the wind lift up mine. I did have a woman avert her eyes as I came down a steep part of a trail on Mt. Monadnock. Smiles and blushing.

Well, that would explain it. And it makes a lot of sense... I would never, ever my nice kilt to...say... see Iron Maiden when they hit Glasgow. Not that I wouldn't give just about anything to see them with a stadium full of Scots...

I wore my tank to see Iron Maiden in Phoenix not too long ago!

I do shindigs in Indiana, Hoot'n Annies in Illinois, festivals in Missouri, occasionally in Canada, and barn burnings in Kansas...all I can say is, Wind Happens.

'tis why I have a sporran that is almost 18" long to go with my great kilt...
