    Yes, Arlen, this has been pointed out before by String.

    What about little Scottish boys, eh?

    Well, String was talking about certain other skills, I think - though I'm still confused how one does those things "like a lady" in a port-a-loo with petticoats and acres of taffeta to contend with.

    But that's another thread in some other forum.

    Well, it is true.
    Fair enough, they get the benefit of something a bit lighter, but I figure if a wee lassie can do it, I can too!

    When I first started wearing kilts, cold mornings and leather seats were the real eye openers on the way to school. My arms aren't long enough (or is it that my backside is a tad toooo large) to do a proper job on the pleats and would get this blob of material on one side and the other would start to freeze until the butt warmers kicked in. So I got a hold of a waist tie from an old bathrobe and after starting to sit, slide the tie down the backside of the kilt to smooth the pleats out and slowly pulled it towards my knees. Repeat the process if not satisfied and the store the little devil in the console between the seats until needed again. It has done the trick for some time now and I even found another one to put in my wife's car when I'm riding shotgun. Something about "The Mother of invention".

    kilted car entry don't

    Whatever you do don't let your doors get frozen shut so that you have to climb in the window or across the transmission tunnel or up through the hatchback

    I had to do all of the above today after first the driver door and then the passenger door froze shut in our ice storm today.

    Doing the "Dukes of Hazzard" thing in a kilt is the antithesis of decorum and poise
