    Kilted Fridqy

    One of the stated purposes of XMTS is encouraging the wearing of kilts. Now, I looked for the times that I could wear mine. Definitely a Celtic Festival or Highland Game. Sometimes for a Scottish or religious holiday.

    But since reading these posts for the last two weeks, I raised the ante and wore my kilt to work just to wear it. So thanks, XMTSers for inspiring me to do it.

    By the way, everyone loved it! In fact one of my customers gave me this reply that he had received from a Scottish Royal Guard at Windsor Castle for the infamous question, "What is worn under the kilt?" His reply, "absolutely nothing is worn under this kilt. Everything is in fine working order. Thank you very much!"

    Fiona gives her approval to Dad's kilt wearing to work.

    Glad to see you take the leap it certainly takes a special kind of man to be able to go to work in a kilt, says Glen who wears a kilt to work everysday,

    I've just started wearing a kilt to school, so I'm understanding the leap... and applaud you, sir!

    Congrats on your courage!

    Kilts at work is the route to mainstream acceptance.

    It doesn't take much to wear the kilt to work, just the cojones necessary to wear it out anywhere!

    Looking good! I've yet to wear mine to work at my new job. My boss knows I wear one, but he says he's not ready to see me in it, lol. I see you're in Spotsy, I work in Massaponax and we'll be relocating to that area very soon. Have to get some area guys together once I get down there.

    Congratulations! I find the days in my kilt are my most comfortable, and productive.
