    Actually, I just watched that again about a week or two ago. At least one of the officers in the lounge is sitting with his legs crossed.

    At first I thought this thread was about hose when I saw the title

    Be well,
    I've pulled that. My mom teased me about not sitting like a lady... so I crossed my legs. And we all know what happened when I did that! She hasn't asked me to sit like a lady since...

    Yup. And, another has his knees together. And, when the Col discusses the court marshall with Sinclair, Barrow is seated with is knees apart and the sporran tucked between. It seems to be up for grabs, if you'll pardon the expression.

    I sit like a guy and let my sporran save the day (or at least my dignity).



    p.s. I always sweep my pleats first.

    Jay,

    You are just using this for a gratious shot of your Ferguson Brit sporran!

    BAD BAD MAN!

    Cheers

    ...do you blame him? If I had one, I would show it off (gratuitously) every chance I got as well!

    So on topic- that's a new one! I've been asked how I keep my legs in such killer shape on various occasions... but that's the only leg question I've ever been asked!

    I'm sure I have no idea what you're talking about.

    But seriously, that's how I sit in my kilt. I've tried to be more dainty (for lack of a better word) but I've got to face facts. I'm an uncouth lug. I think it looks fine and I'm always very concious about being modestly covered. It's just a good thing my trusty Fergusson Britt Inversnaid sporran is so adept at keeping my apron at bay.
