    Any fashion word from the home country on coping with the heat?

    Much appreciated.
    For me, currently in the centre of England, it has been precisely as you describe, klit, sandals and short sleeve, polo or T-shirt. A couple of days, working outside the house, I discarded the top too. I work in cheap and cheerful acrylic kilts, but have 5yd PV or my wool ones for going out anywhere. Although I now live in England, I would wear the same casually anywhere where the temperature is similar to those we are currently experiencing and have in France, Spain, Australia, NZ and of course in Scotland, though on not very many occasions. More usually in Scotland, hose and a long sleeve shirt, with a jacket of some sort not too far away would be the order of the day.
    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!
