My kilt wearing in a bolder fashion is down to the confidence all you guys here have given me over the last twelve month or so and my wife encouraging me to just simply wear my kilt if I want to. Also I must thank Hamish .. he's been an inspiration.
Awww, Derek.........!

The kilt or cilt I should say is becoming more and more popular in Wales. Living close to a church there are several weddings a year now that everyone turns up in welsh cilts. My neighbours son who plays for an under 21 rugby team went with his mate the other evening to a do and his mate wore his welsh cilt. Wales is proud of its celtic traditions and folklore. I doubt whether the lady in question was even celtic and I can't even remember what she was wearing, it was all over in a jiffy ... Out of about 15 people who were there in the church hall she was the only one to make a comment. Makes you feel sorry for her really. She must lead a very sheltered life when you think about it.
