I note a whole lot of belts being worn with Prince Charlies with waistcoats by people who I suspect have been wearing kilts a lot longer than I have. I'm 'a 'tellin 'ya folks, like it or not, its becoming an accepted fashion in some parts.
Best regards,
Jake

Matt, very nice photos.
I personally like where MacLean places his cap when he's not wearing it upon his head. I have wished on many occasions that more would not wear their caps indoors. I have observed that some feel they must wear all accessories at all times to show that they have some kind of a complete outfit. (I'm not referring to anyone in your photos Matt) My own observation since I've been back in Fl. Thus I am usually around lots of gents wearing an array of bonnets indoors, and for formal occasions as well.
I have worn my dirk only once, and for a 3 mile parade. I had to wear it on my right hip, otherwise I would have had a strange limp reaction for the following days. Like you Matt, I find the dirk a bit cumbersome.
Matt, I liked your threads. I noticed the different waistcoat and am pleased to know it is one you purchased from the link posted previously. I always liked the looks of most of the waistcoats and jackets from that vendor and fashioned them for kilt wear in my minds eye.

I notice today I'm still getting the red X's in my post. I double checked and th epicasa album the pics are in is indeed set to public view, so that shouldn't be a problem. I've never had this problem before with inserting images in my posts. Can a moderator maybe look at the post and see if there is something awry that I am missing? Thanks!

Thanks for the pictures, Matt. You and Mrs. Newsome make a fine couple. I especially liked the grey/black kilt and hose combination on the Master-at-Arms. I would have loved to have heard your Immortal Memory!

The code was correct. possibly a permissions problem, but I really don't think so.
