Excellent work; thank you to both of you - this should be sticky somewhere.

Regards

Chas

Outstanding! Very well done.

I particularly like the fact that both of you kept with the same kilt through all the "changes".

I agree that this should be permanently posted somewhere so that everyone can refer to it when and as needed.

Why don't you listen to the people who have more than a fair claim to having developed the kilt------THE HIGHLAND SCOTS. We discovered all this a centutry or more ago.

I really don't think they are saying they invented the kilt. I think they merely were providing a visual guide all in one place. However, I would love to see your version because I'm sure it's just as informative.

My "show" would only differ in detail. The point is, that most Scots that actually only own a kilt, have just the one and that is what we dress "up", or, down accordingly, just as Jamie and McMurdo are doing, as we have been doing for years. This why I and other Scots scratch our heads in wonderment when you have umpteen kilts of different tartans. Why not have one good tartan kilt and then spend any spare cash on jackets for every occasion,day/dress sporrans,etc. Then we don't get all this kilt snobbery and "I can't afford it", cry.
