Kilts adopted for school uniform

"Ten-year-old John Jones, who was part of the pupil committee who helped choose the kilts, said he was delighted.

"I'm going to order one. I really like kilts and I've got one at home which I wear on special occasions. I think once a few people start wearing them, they'll catch on.""

Color me smiling!

I would, but when I looked in my 128 color box of Crayola's, I couldn't find the color!

But seriously, that is a great story!

That's great news!

Will help make Edinburgh a little less of a kilted desert that it alas too often is!

The lad in the pic though - his kilt is a wee bittie an the lang side!

It is a bit too long and the apron edge is on the left. I hope that is not the final product. It looks to me that the lad just wrapped himself in length of fabric.
