    Why not two ...

    Out of a choice of two, I couldnt make up my mind what Cilt pin to use .. I like both. So I thought since I dont really follow any real format for Cilt/Kilt wearing, I will put both pins on.


    I always have my welsh dragon on above my other pin on my St David's Cilt which English bloke kindly brought for me on one of his visits to us.

    A very "Derek" thing to do, I would say.

    No, still down South Derek, paddling around in the floods and mud! Yes we are fine thank you, apart from a distinct humour loss over the dreadful weather affecting things on the farming front, we are still managing to go shooting and hunting though! Yes January is in the diary in large letters.

    I did that for years, back 20 or 30 years ago. I had picked up a few nice vintage silver Celtic style pins at an antique shop, and I would wear a small round one with a long one under it.



    (me c1985, very matchy-matchy!)

    That was years ago! I've come to dislike wearing kilt pins altogether: being around pipe bands and seeing dozens of old band kilts all with torn spots and holes from wearing kilts pins will do that to a man. I wouldn't punch a hole in the sheetmetal of my new car with an ice pick, and I won't punch a hole in either of my expensive kilts!
