    My only regrets are not having more kilts and like some of the others I wished I had started wearing them sooner...

    I regret that I am unable to wear a kilt as often as I would like. There are work constraints, etc.

    But that's about it.

    Oh, yeah, I regret not having one of those Isle of Skye and X-marks kilts . . . yet.

    That's offset with the knowledge that I now have the resources to splurge pretty well whenever I feel like it.
    And I should be thankful that it was never a problem at home (birth or married). Even my brats thought my kilt was a better choice than what I usually wear.
    ArchAngel,
    Too big to wear the kilt? Think Feileadh Mhor, the Grand Kilt, man! I enjoy wearing my feileadh beg but I really love wrapping up in that big plaid!!

    Now here's an idea - but presumably goes beyond the boundaries of good taste:

    Embed a dandelion flower in a clear resin disc. That way you'll have a real one to wear forever, out of season or not. Sorry. Wash my mouth out.

    Oh, hell yes, I have regrets. But, since that's hindsight for historical records keeping I'll save it and tell you that I like the fact that I now am a kilter, years later than I ought to have been!
    Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?

    Actually it was a specific kilt that I've outgrown.
