Ladies Traditional Highland Dress

JSF,

I'd like to meet the lady with the pearls and the large bottle marked WAGNER'S. She seems to be my kind of traditionalist.

She was very traditional!

I am sure there is a tutorial on putting up photos - I have a folder on Photobucket where I can put photos and then take the IMG, by copying and pasting, into a message here, and the photo appears.

Photobucket has been updated recently, so I can't find out how to do what I was doing, reducing the size of the photo so it took up less bandwidth, but I expect I will find it if I keep trying - though it is less important these days.

I do find that things which are useful these days become fiddled with to the point of exasperation - like phones and other little devices which now not only do their original function - if you can find it - but a dozen others - they also have a 500 page manual - written in incomprehensible language - to guide you to the function you used to get by turning it on.

My phone is one I got by saving Coca Cola ring pulls - it has an aerial - it doesn't unfold or slide or twist - the only puzzling thing is that is says NO instead of ON - but I can live with that.

In all probability that bottle contained Irish cider.

Sorry for chiming in so late. There are many events to wear a kilt. The most authentic are highland games, other festivals are similar to fares where the games are not the main focus. Some, like the Ligonier Highland Games have a wonderful band competition. The Kansas City Highland Games are held for the competitors. They have professional and amateur athletes competing. Ren fares are a show, that is all. There are shows, demonstrations, and other things to do but it cannot be considered a Scottish Highland affair.
