OK -- THIS is funny

[Jock Scot]

Jock... I hope that you don't think a Startburst commercial has the ability to ruin a century's worth of work for Scot's and lifeguards alike... it's all in good fun.

Yes indeed it is all good fun and I would have it no other way. However, and this goes back to the music hall stereotype that makes us, particularly perhaps older Scots, cringe.

Alright some one asked me to describe the music hall stereotype Scot.Kilt worn below the knee,overly large sporran usually worn too low with the bottom hanging way below the selvage of the kilt, overly large kilt jacket, or way too small, huge bonnets, think Laural and Hardy and often with a bad Scots accent and usually portraying a drunk.

Now, without wishing to be rude to anyone, but I do need to respectfully make this point-----have a good look at the pictures published here of people wearing the kilt and maybe you will see why some of the pictures published are met with a stony silence from me and others! Make no mistake there are many here that do get their kilt and attire right and there are those that are wanting and willing to learn and that is just fine.BUT-----------------------!
