Kilts on Channel 4 (GB)
I just switched on the box and lo there were lots of fine hunky blokes tossing cabers, wearing kilts. I had tuned into Channel 4`s "A place in the Sun". This couple of teachers were considering Inverness and the presenter had taken them to some Highland Games near a proposed house.
For me the kilted guys looked great, while the visiting couple, clad in the ubiquitous jeans, looked a wee bit out of place. If they are going to live in Inverness then these sassenachs will need a trip to the local kilt and kilted skirt shop!

Sadly jeans are the every day/evening wear up here.Kilts are rarely seen unless there is a wedding/funeral/Burns night/highland games type of thing going on.They would fit in with no bother in jeans.

Luckily we have you, Jock, to show them how good kilts look outside of a wedding, right?
