    Non, je ne regrette rien - as the song advises.

    Life is too short, don't waste the future on the past.

    What GMan and McClef said - wish I'd started wearing kilts when I was younger.

    I totally agree with these statements

    My family is of scots descent, and kilt wearers, so it's never been a big deal for me.
    I just simply never got into a kilt until recently... THAT I regret.
    Wish I had started years ago... but my small-minded, ex-wife (who strangely enough, was of celtic descent) would've nixed that.
    Besides, I've always been walking to the beat of a different drummer...

    I too regret waiting until my 46th summer to put one on.

    Regrets?

    I'll second all remarks concerning not wearing the kilt earlier
    But...never to late, as they say :-)

    Porrick and I had the pleasure of attending the opening of the Academic Year at our College yesterday, wearing kilts (of course). The way the ladies clap there hands at the sight of men in kilt really makes me regret not starting with kilt earlier ;-)

    Like most of the others, my only regret is that I started late in life. Saving for kilts is difficult when you are retired and on a fixed income.

    I think my biggest regret is that my kilt "wish list" is always a LOT bigger than my kilt fund.... and, like others have said, I didn't start soon enough.

    I regret the fact that some people who I thought cared about me can not wrap their heads around my choice to wear a kilt. Can I do anything about it, I really do no think so I will continue to dress how I want, hopefully they will come around.

    My regret is not having access to online kilt forums at an earlier age, as most of my knowledge and confidence has come from them.
