Steady Jock! Rise above the flat hat jibes and stick to the subject! Day time bow ties are not seen over here with the kilt, well, at least I have not seen them. Why they are not worn, much(if at all) I know not. I think that they ought to work well with a tweed argyll and waistcoat and I will see if I can dig out a bow tie and try it. Without a doubt though, a flat hat and/or white hose would not be worn as well, as that really would be poor form!

Sorry, sorry, OK I fell foul of temptation, I really could not resist having a go!

Hey Rabble

Let's sneak up on Jock with a flat cap and some superglue

Ensign Mender Behave!

Getting back to bow ties....

It would be interesting to see if they are English in origin and if so, what would be the traditional Scottish neck wear?

Cheers

I had nothing to do with the flat cap part of this thread, Jock. I did kind of help cause the bow tie part of it, though.

"Innocent" by standers have a habit of getting caught in the crossfire Ted. Just remember that!

Yes, I've noticed... Not that I'm Innocent.

Look forward to what you think on the bow tie and waistcoat.

Well Jock - if you said nothing about flat caps we'd need to send someone to do a welfare check to make sure you are well!

I thank you for your(in the plural context) concern about my well being. If only people could see a spot of good taste, sense too, and refrain from wearing,flat hats, buckets and white hose with their kilts, my blood pressure may resume it's normal state-----whatever that was!
