    Hi Folks

    Hi there,
    been looking at the forum for a few weeks and thought I'd sign up.
    Living in central Scotland and working on an oil rig in the north sea.
    Currently have a Saltire tartan kilt with the Bonnie prince charlie for formal doo's and weddings. I do a lot of running, specialising in Ultra marathons and this summer started running them in a Sport Kilt, hiking kilt. I'm now on the look out for something to wear at highland games and for drinking/relaxing in after races.

    Hello. I work in the North Sea too, currently southern sector gas production out of Norwich but I also worked on a semi-sub driller out of Aberdeen for three years.

    This is a good place for kilt advice, from the contemporary to hyper formal, it's all here. Welcome from Lancashire England.
    Best Regards John
