Victory!
Previously, on St Patrick's Day, i was denied my right to wear my kilt to work by my manager.
see discussion here:
http://www.xmarksthescot.com/forum/s...ight=Riverkilt
Sent my direct supervisor an email that today was :
August 1 (1746): Scottish Defiance Day, AKA: Rebellion Day
The Anniversary of The Act of Proscription - Put on your kilt, which was outlawed in this day by the Crown as an instrument of war. It remained a crime to use bagpipes, wear a kilt or any tartan for 35 years and 11 months (until the repeal on July 1, 1792, see section above).
Today, my supervisor and manager talked about it AND starting Monday Kilts are fair game. (Non-Regimental, of course.)
