We had our Christmas Carol Service tonight so I dug out my Kirk dress.

Sadly this will be the last time its worn

Last time? Because you are getting a kilt for next time?

**McMurdo** · 8th December 07, 05:53 PM

Wonderful photos, are you leaving the service then?

**TheKiltedWonder** · 8th December 07, 06:38 PM

It looks nice. Of course, a kilt would look nicer

Why the last time?

**pipesndrumsnun** · 8th December 07, 07:07 PM

Looks good.

Sharp looking threads. Why the last time?

YMOS,

I always did like the Sam Brown.

To those who have asked, it all to do with the new RRS Dress Regs. "Friday Dress" was something specific to the Black Watch where you wore Trews and chained spats rather than long spats. As a Territorial it wasn't something we wore very often so it won't be getting worn again as its no longer one of the orders of Dress

Bummer. I've always liked getting to wear the dress uniform and the dressier uniforms. The new uniform probably won't be near as sharp looking as that one. The more the powers that be try to update the uniforms the more generic we tend to get.
