Now I am fed up with this! No one from this side of the Atlantic has made any derogatory comment about box pleated kilts. NOT ONE. To us us they look like school girls skirts------- and they do. To many of you on the other side of the Atlantic they don't seem to. So what? To us there is nothing wrong with a schools girls' skirt, nothing at all! All we have ever said that the box pleated is not common over here and they do, to us, look like School girls skirts. That, it seems, is the best honest description that we over here can come up with and I really cannot see why people take exception to that.
