Oh Trefor, come on!I do not intend to get into a pantomime-esque type of conversation over dress codes that have evolved over the years,many many years probably.You,me and others will wear what we are happy to wear and you know as well as me that there are conventions regarding dress.That is a fact.Old fashioned,out of date, constricting some may consider them to be,nevertheless they exist.We will all wear what we will wear and I am just trying to pass on 60 something years of experiance.That is all,please take it for what it is worth.Maybe to you,nothing and that is fine by me.

I do,however agree with you that a Dinner suit(tux)is boring and the kilt does add an extra something to an occasion,particularly if the accessories are appropriate!

All the best,
Jock.
