Thanks for all the work with this subject, Jock.
All very interesting and somewhat predictable.

I will as time permits, look at the 'old" survey, as I believe the answers to this one show the younger generation have not changed their views as much as I thought they might have!

To me, (And maybe Only to me!) this survey says that those of us outside Scotland should be very careful how the kilt is worn, and we should take great care to not offend by doing so in a sloppy manner.
(by this, I mean by breaking convention just bacause it is something we are 'good' at!)


Ayrshire;

Such a head-covering, useful for shade, and to direct the rain away from the nape of the neck Has been made!.......It's the Old style Bonnet, or Balmoral!
I wear one an awful lot on the farm, as the top is big enough to shift around a bit to keep the sun or rain off.:-) Good when it is sweltering or wet and cold. No I don't sell 'em, just wear 'em!

Richard.
