New Year's reception

[Robin]

Today we attended the New Year's reception at our golf club...we just got our membership approved.

The perfect occasion to wear a kilt...although my wife raised an eyebrow...she was slightly worried about my kilted appearance (some important business associates to be met...), but she trusted my judgement...well...no other option really

Argyll jacket, bottle green hoses and tie, dress sporran, antique ram's horn and silver sgian dubh*, black brogues, off white shirt and tartan flashes.



Was a stunning success...only compliments, nice remarks and sensible questions...only one small incident...a gentleman grabbed my kilt and started to lift it..."don't make a fool of yourself...it's true" he backed off instantly.

The "club photographer" made lots of pictures of me and my wife and asked me to pose for him...can't wait to see the next club magazine :mrgreen:

My wife will never have any doubts again...she was so damn proud and we both enjoyed the funny looks and all the nice remarks.

*sgian dubh borrowed from my father in law...he's a knife collector.
