I did feel like a fish out of water, wearing shorts in Britain while on holiday.

I don't think I've ever seen anyone there wear them... and my various holidays travelling around Britain have always been in mid summer.

Here, in SoCal, there are many like myself who only wear shorts, regardless of season. I haven't owned a pair of jeans in 30 years or so, and my son, 21, has never owned a pair of jeans. (My son also wears Aloha shirts 7 days a week.)

I do own one pair of light khaki trousers that I wear to church (though many people here attend church in shorts), and a pair of black slacks that I wear to gigs at which a kilt would not be appropriate.
