    English Bloke in a Kilt

    Right then…

    I’ll give this picture posting a whorl to see if I can get it to work.



    Went to visit my best mate in Yorkshire last weekend with my family. Had a great night on the Friday chewing the fat and catching up and it was early hours when we knocked it on the head. Few beers and a large number of single malts were consumed and so on Saturday we all felt a bit fragile.

    Went for a long walk in the country to recuperate and saw some race horses (hence the horsey coats) in a field.

    My beautiful 2 year old daughter decided that there was nothing more important than looking at them so after chasing and grabbing her before she found the electric fence, she decided that daddy’s shoulder would get the best vantage point.



    This is one of my Casual outfits.

    Jacket (denim) by Levi
    Black T-shirt (“Wish You Were Here” motif) by Pink Floyd
    Kilt Belt and Buckle (Black standard)
    Nightstalker Cargo Sporran (Nylon) by Stillwater Kilts
    Crome Kilt Pin (Sword with “Lion Rampant” motif)
    Forest Green Hose (standard)
    Black Flashes (budget)
    Cross Trainers (Brown) by Hi-Tec

    Oh yeah… an’ I got a kilt on (PV 8yd Mcleod of Harris Ancient)

    Well I like it…

    Mmmmm... it seems to work in the preview, so here goes!
    Best Regards John

    Great photos and a nice outfit as well thanks for posting them it's nice to put a face to a name. Your daughter looks like she is a very happy little girl.

    Great pics John. I agree with Todd, kids always steal the "show" when taking photos . My 8 year old feels he has to be every photo I take, LOL.
