    Before I started wearing a kilt I used red braces to hold my trousers up in preference to a belt. I think Americans call them suspenders. Still, I became known in the Ceroc dancing world as the man with the red braces. To the point that several times ladies that I danced with frequently didn't recognise me on the street as the braces were under my coat.

    I am not at all sure that I am very happy about that especially since now I am known as the man in the kilt. Since I wear the kilt full time, no-one has not recognised me, if you see what I mean.

    But that does beg the question, if I every wore trousers again, would anyone recognise me?

    In my very little burb (more horses then people) people call me the kilt guy and always ask where it is if I'm not wearing one. I just tell them that I have to do laundry, too, sometimes. It's funny, I never thought people would question why I have p@nts on.

    What if you wore the red braces with the Kilt? Would people recognize you? Would 2+2 go together?
