Here are few pictures from this years games in Calgary.



As you can see from the program this year the Masters World Championships was in Calgary. There were competitors from all over, even Japan!






Before we went in to the games. What does everyone think of the shirt I'm wearing with this outfit?









Rick Mercer was at the games this year shooting an episode of the Rick Mercer Report. Here he's getting instruction on the hammer throw.












Now some caber toss instruction.








So what happens when you can't get the caber over? You get the chainsaw out!








More to follow.

I like rugby style shirts with kilts. I am a bit partial to tucking them in though.

I like the hunting socks and boots with the kilt too!

I think a rugby shirt works nicely as part of a casual kilt outfit!

Because of the high waist and sporran of a traditional kilt, it looks better to me if tucked in and especially so with a belt. Personally, I prefer a white undershirt because it layers up more subtly.

Good pics, the Maple Leaf kilt looks good on you. I think the shirt goes OK with the kilt and hose but might look better if it was tucked into the kilt.
