    Robbie,

    Are you suggesting that a pinstripe kilt in itself is inappropriate, or that the wearing of it by Jack McConnell when representing Scotland was inappropriate? I trust it is the latter!

    The Rainbow Kilt? That makes two kiltmakers who produce this type of kilt then. Streetkilts and Melville Kilts, both of London. I would welcome one for my 'Kilt Kollection', but I really don't think that even I would ever wear it!!

    There is also a Rainbow Tartan that was developed for the Gay community several years ago, but it is so startlingly garish that, again, not even I would be able to wear it!!

    Someone in a rock band might get away with it. But it wouldn't be going on my backside.

    Hi Hamish -

    Actually, I wasn't suggesting either. The point I was trying to make that a pinstipe kilt is inappropriate on TARTAN Day (and that's apart from it being too short, doesn't go with a jacobite shirt, and as for the pose!!)

    Hi Robbie!

    Oh, thanks for that. However, I've not seen a photo of Mr. McConnell wearing the kilt suit, so had no idea it was short, that he wore a Jacobite shirt with it and I cannot imagine what pose he struck!!

    Hmmm Not even if I knew the rest of the world was colorblind would I wear that rainbow kilt. My bravado ain't that grand.

    We can leave that one to the denizens of Tom's Cafe.

    Some of them are bound to love it.
