    Agreed - that is an obvious fact nowadays. But why? I can see that kilts and moving machinery don't go together - even I recognise that chainsawing kilted is unwise!

    Without wishing to be intrusive, I'm wandering if you could give us an honest appraisal of where there are clashes between your kilt and your lifestyle.

    I don't mind you wondering at all and its not in the least bit intrusive. So in no particular order, kilts and chest waders(fishing) do not go. I rarely wear the kilt outwith the Highlands and even less often in England, where I am quite often (and further afield). I still spend time on the farms where whirling cogs and shafts, several hundred horse power and the kilt is a terrifying thought. The kilt and shooting and deer stalking do not march happily together either. Horse riding in the form of hunting mainly, when I used to ride was also not a good idea with the kilt.
