Kilting up for anniversary of Bannockburn?

[jumary]

I began this thread by explaining why I wore my kilt that day. It was a group of students 11-12 years old, and I used the event to explain a bit about Scotland and its history/reputation for at least seeking independence. Most of the students could not locate Scotland, so hopefully they gained that bit of knowledge.
I told them I wore my kilt because it was Scottish, but added that the men who fought at Bannockburn did not wear kilts. I also explained a bit about my bagpipes. Overall, I used that day to give them a brief exposure to Scotland, and hopefully I created some interest.
It does seem to me that some people here relish in pointing out mistakes and correcting others for clothing and other faux pas.
I value the kilt-related information and suggestions I read here, but I do not need any pedagogical feedback from XMTS members.
