I said to my daughter that I need another kilt. She said I don't need any more kilts. ...
I actually know what I'm probably going to do but your thoughts, as always, will be most welcome
As a (former) American scouter, (who never got around to attending Wood Badge), I must ask, is there a scouting or Wood Badge necktie that you can wear? To my senses, if I were in your position, I would wear my family related tartan, a jacket (with waistcoat if available) appropriate to the event, and my vintage, scouter's 'business dress' necktie. I would think that a necktie which connects to your scouting experiences would not be out of place in a MacLaren crowd.
