    Oh, I most certainly agree, Rex! I never said he was an exception.

    I suppose where I disagreed with you was in regards to the bonnet appearing as "costumish" when not worn with the appropriate jacket (and other traditional Highland dress accessories), though you did state, "if it looks like costume," which from my personal experience, is generally quite a noticeable difference from the more traditional approach towards Highland day attire.
