    Oh, sweet Edinburgh, love of my life ... why did I ever leave you?

    Oh, and I agree with Jock Scot on the sock issue. Tut tut.

    Agreed with Jock, as well. The kilt has such a dignity in its own right... seems to heighten the incongruity when accessories detract from it.

    Great photos Alex - and like the rest, I'm glad to see the young people wearing kilts.

    I'm wondering if the "backward" worn kilt was actually displayed this way on purpose - as it would then show the satire design in the pleats, which might otherwise be missed by the casual observer.

    I second that... Speaking of which, I haven't seen a posting from Robertson in quite some time? Hopefully he's just too busy with guests (and entertaining them with drams and pub crawls)... Anyone hear of him lately?

    Yes, myself and Alex were down there a week or two ago for the visit by Patrick and his Norwegian students. Robertson and Emma are really busy but are in their usual good form. Hopefully he'll put up a few posts soon
