I don't know where people get these ideas from: funny, isn't it? I can't remember seeing a fellow Aussie dressed the way you have described.

One thing's for sure, though: if I see a man walking the streets of Sydney wearing moleskin pants, a full-length Driza-bone jacket, and a "Crocodile Dundee" type hat I could bet my last dollar that he's an American!

Back on the subject of kilts...

I often wear my Cornish National 8-yarder to "Scottish" events and can expect to get asked a question along the lines of, "Excuse me, what clan tartan are you wearing? I know most of them, but I don't recognise that one."
