    I thought that looked familiar but with some not so good Photoshop work.

    Anybody remember Mel Brook's Spaceballs?

    Every time I see a photo of a kilt worn backward, I think of Mel's playing President Scroob in that movie and being teleported and rematerializing with the bottom half of his body reversed 180 degrees. The memorable line is, "...why didn't anybody tell me that my @$$ was this big?"

    Guy laying sod: "Green side up...green side up..."

    Guy putting on kilt: "Pleats in the back...pleats in the back..."

    Best

    It's either a skirt or a kilt worn backwards (which we've ALL seen before!)

    Looks like Hanna needs a shave...
    Hanna needs more than a shave - gender re-assignment more like. Nice to see they're going organic though. I wonder if they prefer organic sheep in Shetland. As long as they don't get the ugly one I suppose. I must stop these stereotypical comments about Shetlanders.

    If it's a kilt, and I don't think so, it's on backwards!

    But, but, but....

    Common sense...obviously if a Martian came to Earth and was given a kilt and a pair of pants and told to dress a man and a woman he'd look at the girl parts and look at the boy parts and give the kilt to the man and the pants to the woman. But I'll bet he'd also put the kilt on the man with the pleats to the front so when the man sat he'd have the smooth apron to sit on and not wrinkle the pleats.

    To the Saltire! We can drop David and Panache in the Arctic with snow shoes and then off to the Shetlands in search of the elusive Organically Unbleached Retro Red Shetland Sheep.

    If you want the belt, you can easily find one. That's a medieval style ring belt. Tons are made for reenactors, ren faires, etc. You can easily find one on ebay for $25.
