    The kilt can be worn informally just as easily in the right circumstances, you know. In those circumstances no ties are required and it is entirely acceptable and correct not to wear one and a common practice in Scotland...................but the kilt is still worn properly, unless that is, you are a member of the Tartan Army!

    Who here is brave enough to take the Tartan Army head-on, and tell them they're doing it all wrong..?

    I'm willing to bet most of them know already, but they do their 'Braveheart' thing for this very reason - plus it flicks the Vs at the establishment.

    Glasgow's Central Station is the best place to see them in the wild - I mean, quite literally.
