Just read through it, it'll get to the being sick part...
(Warning, it is a bit gross.)

Well, everything has all been as sorted as it can be for my leaving Scotland.
I've sorted out a trip to Dumfries on the 12th of April to have a nice farewell kilt night. (Anyone else coming?)
I may very well be switching to doing nightshift these last few weeks to get extra money. (And get on to Idaho time.)
I've posted on what I can to America and I'm slowly packing up the rest.

So I bought myself a really big suitcase and split my kilts into what I will be wearing in these last few weeks, what can get rolled up and packed into the suitcase and what is too fancy for that and will be carry on.

What did I end up with? One kickabout kilt (My tweed)and my two good kilts (Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders military box pleat and Macdonald Modern tank) to wear and my Macdonald modern and Pride of Scotland 'Arylicy stuff' kilts and my denim unionkilt in the suitcase.

I will wear my tweed kilt on the flight and carry the other two in a suit carrier so I can hang them on the flight along with my PC jacket.


Now here we get to the being sick on a kilt.
The reason I have kept the tweed out is because it's been so windy lately that I am packing the rest and leaving them for sunny Idaho when I get there.
But when I last went there the flight between Minneapolis and Boise was so shaky that I was sick. REALLY SICK. Repeatedly. And the first bout came so fast I couldn't get the sick bag open.
I was sick all over my kilt and my sporran and spent the whole flight with my head in a sick bag and sweating into my already sick covered tweed kilt.


This is part of why I wanted to wear the tweed kilt again. I haven't scotch guarded it but it was still supremely easy to clean. (I just carefully wifed the whole thing with a damp cloth, left it to air for two days and repeated. Good as new.)
And I got to figuring, if the pleats still looked good and it was so easy to clean I want to wear this kilt again.
I can look good and try to break the jinx. Get a really good flight in it next time. (And keep the sick bag open and ready.)

Now the reason for this post?
It got me wondering what is the worst other kilts have gone through and how did you deal with it?
