    He cleans up rather well.

    I was recently invited to be keynote speaker at an annual dinner of the 78th Fraser Highlanders.

    The invitation stated; Black Tie with Ribbons and Medals.

    As I don't often get a chance to use my Prince Charlie Coatee I thought I would post this photo taken after the dinner.

    We have had a few conversations over the acceptability of wearing military awards with a kilt and I thought I would share one way that it is acceptable for the wear of miniature medals with civilian attire.

    That's a fine look, all around.

    It is unusual to see a kiltie with his hand in his pocket!

    Looking good Steve. You cleaned up even better than you did in Palm Springs. Looks like theres some life in the old bones yet.
    If you can avoid it never get into a fair fight.

    Haha! I'm so used to seeing folks with hands in their pockets that I didn't even think about it!

    Looking good, Steve!
