    Looking at all these photos really makes me want to go out and get a tweed kilt jacket!

    Such a contrast, that one photo of you in your lovely Lovat Green tweed jacket and coordination hose, and the piper in the typical modern pipe band look of black jacket and dark hose.

    Then as a very nice touch someone posted a photo of a modern piper, Matt Pantaleoni, competing in a Lovat Green kilt jacket!
