    I was in London in '02 and you just brought back some great memories. I'll have to get back over there soon.

    Great pics, and I love the hose as well. Ham, is that the new SWK nylon sporran? I have one as well and love it. Do you like yours?

    Now I can tell Ham is in the XMarks tartan, Mark is that Scottish National you are wearing?

    He certainly was, Cloves. Well, Romans DID, y'know - they knew what was right! His was rather flimsy-looking and considerably shorter than either of ours, but he had some heavier kit on top to keep things in place. Heck! If the Romans could get away with short garments like that, why can't I? They'd be great for the summer, and with legs like mine......!!

    hose...

    I have a set of hose like Hamishs, although in Oatmeal with green dicing. They're sometimes referred to as "shooting hose" because they are worn with shooting attire (plus fours, tweed) -- mine are from the Almost Unwearoutable Sock Company in Northumberland.

    HRH the Duke of Rothesay also wears them frequently with his kilts.

    Cheers,

    Todd
