Hi to all x markers, pour yourself a dram and listen to my tale of woe. I admit it, I have just spent the last 12 days unkilted This was in direct response to my wife's disgust at my wearing the noble kilt! I have been 'booted and suited' for 12 unhappy days She said, after many days and much cold shouldering, that I looked like her granny when I wore my latest kilt In all honesty it was a very purple tartan, 'Heritage of Scotland', and there's a totally different tale that goes with the purchase of it, so I binned it, and have decided that perhaps in the name of compromise, plain colours are more suited to me and my wife's eyes
But, last night I thought, ********!, and donned my plain black kilt, black hose, royal blue flashes, black boots,shirt and a waistcoat, and felt like a million dollars I'm sat here in pretty much the same garb tonight, and as for the disapproving glances from a certain person, I know that the kilt is as much a part of my life as breathing. So, any suggestions how to cheaply 'beef' up the outfit, as my missus thinks the only place a kilt should be seen is on the groom at a genuine Scottish wedding!
