    Yes none of the bands in the Qualifying Heat wore white hose, but Fife Constabulary and Boghall & Bathgate (who prequalified) wore them in the Finals.

    Boghall & Bathgate is consistently one of the smartest bands. I love their tartan and everything about their kit.

    Other kilt-related asides: around 2/3 of the Grade One bands have kilts pleated to the stripe.

    With band's bagcovers and cords, it's odd how several bands wear navy covers and black cords, or visa versa. Another oddity is Scottish Power wearing Royal Stewart tartan cords, though their kilts don't have those colours at all.
