    Kilted in the bush

    Hi all

    Spent a weekend at my weekender down the coast. 20 acres of rustic splendour. For the first time I wore a kilt around the block (USA Kilts Casual in Ireland's National) and was stunned by how cool, comfortable and practical a garment it is for just wandering over the hills. Where my wife was complaining of the heat in her shorts, I was very comfortable indeed. It was about 32 deg C and about 50% humidity for the meteorologists out there.

    I originally brought the kilt down to wear to the local eatery on the Friday night. There was a folk band, a bit of a night market and a cocktail bar. The kilt drew some attention and positive comment, but best of all, a free coffee for the guy in the kilt (much needed after the cocktails).

    Some photos of the GP boot and T-shirt look (don't worry, only my wife and the snakes could see). I had a collared khaki shirt, green hose and brown leather shoes for dining out, but alas, no photos.

    All in all, a fabulous weekend.

    All the best.

    Nothing wrong with the boots 'n' T-shirt look at all. I think it's fine.

    If you are too busy to laugh, you are too busy.
