    You really do look fantastic. You've come on leaps and bounds and you definitely do the kilt justice.
    The sporran rule tends to be that you should have the top of the sporran a hands-breadth below your belt / waistcoat. That way the sporran works as a good guard for your goolies (Can I use that term on here?) and still looks good in proportion to the rest of the outfit.
    It depends, of course, on how big your hands are!

    In many contexts a standard hand's breadth is four inches (10 cm).

    .
    Do the language laws in Quebec really require you to hire a mime who doesn't speak French if you hire one who doesn't speak English? Could a mime who doesn't speak either fill both roles at the same time? (Thanks to Calvin Trillin.)
