Kilts for Halloween?

[Bugbear]

1MUNK3, May I ask why are you speaking in this ridiculous dialect. I suspect you are american ?

Why are you talking in outdated scots?. Being from scotland myself I would like to educate you that no one in scotland talks like this.

And what puzzles me even more is why an american is speaking like this. ????????????????????

Strange... I just assumed that is how they speak in Massachusetts, U.S.A.

I usually don't do anything for Halloween anymore, so I guess I won't wear a kilt. I have, however, worn a gause pirate shirt with my kilt to the Ren Fest, so I guess it's which accessories you wear with the kilt that make it costoom-ish.

* Just making a joke, no offence intended. *

Wicked pissah!

Last year I didn't wear a costume and just put on a kilt to take the kids out. Of course everyone THOUGHT it was a costume and I got many compliments but it was a bit tiresome having to explain that I wasn't wearing a costume. This year I am going to a party wherein a costume is expected so I will be going as the 4th Doctor.

Oh, he's a newbie. He has yet to learn the nuances of when to fake the dialect in type, and we should all be glad it wasn't written in a lee7 or txt dialect.

Whatever weekend is closest to Halloween is when my friends and I go to the Texas Rennaisance Festival. Patrons as well as workers show up in all sorts of garb and it's like a 50-acre party. It's a blast. As others here have done, I usually wear my great kilt/belted plaid along with other period wear suitable for 1600s or sometime later for the Jacobite timeframe even though it would be after the Ren period.

Guess I could wear my kakhi kilt, a hawaiian or aloha shirt, my straw hat, and sandles around on Halloween. That's what I sometimes wear to the pit firings at the studio.

* I just heard Jock Scot groan. Sorry about that Jock. *

Probably won't really be wearing that on Halloween.

You could literally dress up as a giant shortbread... for Halloween

A giant haggis, maybe...

I think I will plant garlic for halloween... So I might be wearing overalls and a straw hat... So no kilt here.

I could, though, put a belted plaid on the scarecrow...

Garlic? Defending against vampires?

Garlic? Defending against vampires?

Yes, but it's elephant garlic... So I guess it's to keep the elephant vampires away from my elephant food plants.

On the other hand, they would keep those vampire bugs out of the vegetable gardens too... I don't plan on planting the garlic while wearing a kilt either way.

For some time now, I have been a member of this fine group and I have enjoyed reading the many threads. Sure, I am in the shadows, watching and listening. But when I read this thread, I had to put in me 2 cents.
Yes, I am kilted and proud of it.
As far as wearing a kilt on halloween, go for it. Where I work, men can only wear business causal (dockers and dress shirt). As for women, they get away with everything.
Last year, I wore my Utilikilt and got a free lunch. And the ladies loved it.

This year, I plan on wearing my McDonald Sportkilt with all that goes with it.

Thanks,
