    IT STILL COUNTS THOUGH!!!

    Right?

    Oh, winter wind thou art a wicked temptress.
    Seems more like desperation and wishful thinking. For a kilt lift to be a true kilt lift there has to be a second person (in human form) involved. Dogs and wind don't meet the necessary criteria.

    Who knew that Mother Nature was such a wanton, bawdy old lass?

    I don't know. Have you ever had a dog with a cold nose do a kilt check.
    It is quite the shocker

    Oh ow - oh dear - my ribs ache from coughing and now you make me laugh - reclining with the chocolate and the er cough mixture to hand, wrapped in my cosy blankie - no no - plaid, yes, it is a warm plaid -

    I think that whilst a kilt lift possibly did occur it can't really be counted as a kilt check if there was no second party involved - though someone with a set of binoculars might yet come forward to confirm that the event did actually happen.

    In my case there was a second, and a third, and a fourth, etc. party involved!

    I'm sorry Grant, I wanted to consider it to be a full blown kilt check (pun intended.) However, there are rules for this sort of thing, and one just can't proceed willy-nilly over the rules.

    On second thought, because it's you (and my wife is laughing hysterically,) I'll rate that a 5. On a scale of 1-20.
