    wow, thats quite a nice tartan. (yep im one of those weird cats).
    Unfortunately NZ is not well known for its appreciation of European ancestory. I'm sure the Bro's will appreciate it, hopefully.

    Was going to go comfy / casual with just a white shirt and lodge tie, oh and the kilt...

    While it is true, wearing a kilt is a form of appreciation of our European heritage, it has evolved into much more than that. Wearing a kilt today is a style of dress. It is a versatile garment. No other single piece of clothing can go from casual dress to business attire to formal attire. When worn with the appropriate accessories and the correct demeanor, a man in a kilt can go just about anywhere (with only a light travel bag.)

    Maybe you should move to Dunedin that was settled by Scots, I'm sure your kilt would be welcome there.

    *Moving to Dunedin next year somewhere between the end of July and October* Nice to know we won't be the only upside down X-markers.
