    Hi Compaqguy,

    Black Watch and MacDonald - how very even handed of you. I think the Heritage of Scotland will make a nice addition.

    Regards

    Chas

    Good photos, you look happy and they are all well put together casual outfits. I'm just wondering if you wear a sporran or not, or is this one of those things that you don't wear when you are at home?

    McMurdo, I have a sporran, but I rarely wear it, especially at home. I also have a belt, and flashes (Black Stewart), but it's all a lot to wear at home, and a little OTT for me. I did an errand in the McDonald tartan the other day, so I'm venturing outside. Kilts aren't that common in my area, though from seeing Kanye West, most of my young black contemporaries know what it is, so no double-takes.

    Cool, I thought it may be that you just don`t wear it at home, and I completely understand that.

    Looking good! I really like the sweaters/jumpers you chose with the kilts.

    I also don't wear a sporran at home much of the time, as it gets in my way at the workbench and just needs to be shifted around if I sit.
