CMcG:- Yes, valid comment and exactly the kind of contribution needed in this section of the site. It's good to point out mistakes so that others may avoid a repeat performance. It may be a modern approach but we can still learn from each other. I appreciate your considerations but in my mate's defence, Doublewood has lost a bit of weight recently and had to take his kilt belt in three notches. At one point on our wander he had to take it in another notch as he almost found his kilt round his ankles. (He needs his buckles adjusting back to their original position). For this reason I'd forgive him his sporran being a bit droopy and his kilt being a bit low, I think it was the least of his worries. You have a good eye though and you're right, it can spoil an otherwise well thought out, non-traditional look. It wasn't so noticable "on the day" I assure you, probably because we were moving about rather than being viewed as a captured static image. I know what you mean though I shall brief him and get him to adjust his kilt back to a better fit...

Derek: York Brewery's "Guzzler" As it says in the link. 'Crisp and refreshing', a crackin' beer! We were in a pub called The Maltings, just around the corner from the station by Lendal Bridge. Zara had a glass of draught "moonshine" cider from the Original Cider Co. A lovely glass but has danger written all over it! It tastes like straight apple juice but clocks a hefty 7.5% ABV. Need to take it easy with that one me thinks.
