Thank you Ham. Really appreciate the lesson. Like many at this forum, i too possess a rather large pile driver, but will do my best to keep the ladies from tittering or my butt sticking to the seat.

Great video. We have a real movie star in our midst.

Great advice as always Ham. I love the 'active' demonstration, so much better than just a written paragraph.
-
Thank you Hamish! Great video :)
Love the kilt, too! :D
-
Ahhhhhhhhhhh! No more sitting on a bunched up kilt for me. Or sitting on a hot or cold chair.
Thank you Hamish, your video demonstration is very much appreciated by those of us who are visual learners. Now for a little one and two handed sweep practice. Once they are mastered it is on to the "no hands" technique.
Cheers! Bill

That was truly wonderful! Thank you for the lesson! Although if you who are the master discovered you were flashing your audience, where does that leave me, the complete novice? :confused:
The practice some have referred to where you start sitting and then back yourself into the chair in a graceful sliding motion - that is what I saw Scotty do on an episode of Star Trek the original series and I was afraid that was required. You see, I am somewhat of a klutz and was convinced I would sit down just short of the chair, the kilt would get caught on the chair, and I would end up on the floor on my butt flashing everyone at the party. :O
In any case, I thoroughly enjoyed your movie and you seem like a natural in front of the camera. When can we expect a sequel? :D

Many thanks Phil, and everyone else. The unfortunate flashing (it was only a very brief flash!) was because I set my camera far too low and it was too much face to face. I raised the camera a little and turned the chair slightly and the end result was more acceptable.
In reality, these things do take a short while to become second nature. As a novice, just practice and before you realise it, you'll have it. The management of the kilt is really nothing more than common sense. No-one taught or showed me how to sit, how to get in and out of cars, etc. I just did what I felt was right at the time.

So short a time, in fact, that you will find yourself doing a kilt sweep when getting into a car... wearing pants!
