    Hi Will

    Families can be fickle especially my two sons. They are at the age when everything I say and do is an embarrassment to them.

    They think my kilt is just another way of me getting back at them. Eyes to the ceiling!!!

    On the whole though I have my wife and kids support. My mother thinks its great, as do assorted others.

    My brother? He just thinks I'm soft in the head.

    ...except that women wear pants, men wear trousers. The terms have become interchangable recently, but there is a difference. :mrgreen:
