Sporrans, bagpipes and kilts

The Games have been and gone why are they being advertised and sold now. Definitely aimed at burns night.

Massive stock arrived too late for Games??

When DH was being fitted for a hired kilt at the time of DD's wedding, I laughed so much that I really did slide down the wall of the fitting room (no exaggeration - though I didn't fall on the floor, of course)! DH's wee legs would look better on a budgie, and the sight of him standing there with the kilt up at the front and down at the back (because of his plump-ish tummy), wearing his white trainers and sports socks, just did it for me! This was in 1990 (hence the white trainers etc)

I can just imagine that Marelli!
DH's legs best kept covered...... at all times!

Sounds divine Marelli . No, no to white trainers. My nephews wear Timberlands and rugby socks with their kilts.

I must say though, at the wedding he did look quite handsome.... . The thick kilt-socks, with necessary dirk, filled his legs out a bit, thankfully. My hat blew off though ( not at the sight of him in a kilt) but just when the photos were being taken ! DD divorced a couple of years later - but it was a very good wedding!!

This year I've attended 4 weddings with kilts aplenty at each one!
DS is now planning his wedding for 2016 and the knees will be out in force there too.
My favourite wedding pic was taken at DD's civil parnership in july with the girls surrounded by all the kilted boys from both families.
A friend did buy the very cheap lidl kilt for her son a few years ago. It served its purpose but was not a longterm investment.
(Must try to post that pic on pictures thread.)

I sometimes wish i could prove Scots ancestry so that I could wear the tartan. I think highland dress is so smart and macho. Mind you, I don;t have the legs for it.

mcem my favourite pic was your GS in his kilt. Adorable.

pompa I could lend you one of DH's and my family tartans. We have a few to spare. What would be your choice?

I love the sound of the Lone Piper playing on the ramparts of Edinburgh Castle at night.

Thanks agus. I'm sure you'll spot him if I manage to upload it on the pictures thread.

Couldn't miss him.

Like you I have been following another thread where you've made comments.
I'm afraid I opted out of the other thread that links to it.
Hope my pic provided a moment of light relief!
