Kilted Fridays Adventures

Sharply turned out as always Ern!

While I, sadly, do not have any photographs to post, I thought I'd post a quick summary of the adventures. I live in Massachusetts but drove out to Cleveland, Ohio to help my friend Seán after he had a hip replacement. Today was the surgeon check-up, so Seán wore a fabulous grey waistcoat from St Kilda in Glasgow, and his new 8-yard style, reverse Kingussie pleated kilt made by Barb Tewksbury in the Auld Scotland tweed. Seán's a good man for the hose and shoes, too, so he was well turned-out.

I wore my Barb Tewksbury 8-yard style, knife-pleated 13 oz wool kilt in the Co. Cavan tartan and a more casual waistcoat from Wah Maker.

After the check-in, we enjoyed a fine casual lunch in Cleveland and then, with me driving, Seán toured me around some of Cleveland's sights. A good day. Sorry I don't have photos!

not spotted: the 14 or so 10mm sockets in the sporran, and the emergency "Sgian Undo" socket in his kilt hose !
Great pic!

That’s one way to keep track of the little buggers.

For yesterday's Kilted Friday Adventure my Scottish Wildcat tartan Kingussie was next up in rotation from my armoire. My first stop was at a Labcorp to get a lab test. The phlebotomist inquired about the occasion to be wearing a kilt. I told her it was a take off on TGIF with adding the kilt, Thank Goodness It's Kilted Friday. She said her husband wore his Royal Air Force Tartan kilt when thy attended Burns'Nights in the UK. She shared how much she enjoyed dressing up to the expected standards. I shared with that our local Scottish Society hosted one every year. A good encounter.
