Thanks for that - the 2 skirts was confusing the matter
Well played on the kilt sir - are they your colours?
Spiffy! Not sure I want to know where you keep the Sgian Dubh though... :))
Is that tartan a Clan pattern?
-Eh, Geek beat me to the question.
The more I look the more I just can't see you sat behind a PC playing RPGs and ranting at your smoke firing tanks!
I think I look like a gamer but you look entirely too wise to be steering little men round a monitor
Much respect for the kilt. I've worn one once, when a buddy of mine got hitched. It was a very cold and windy day. I gained a new appreciation for what women in skirts suffer through during wind when they get in to or out of a car. It just becomes a goddamn wind tunnel at that point. :o
Very smart indeed, JD.
I agree. Dredd looks to respectable to be a Gamer much less a Grog. He should be running for elected office or else a Doorman at an upscale restaurant.
Sharp looking couple.

SOMEbody has to class up the joint! Nicely done, JD.
Thank you all for your very polite comments - well done on being so refrained.
The tartan is the Ireland tartan. A generic "Irish" tartan, much the same as you get a generic Scotland tartan. I've never looked into family history so I would not know if I had any right to a specific tartan. I just guessed as a very proud Scot I am at the very least entitled to wear a tartan of some form or other.
Rather unbelievably, I looked on the shop website at the various tartans and decided I liked "the green one" - and I'm not joking ;D
But there's some logic in the choice...Riley is of Irish origin I believe.
It was cold and wet yesterday and my cairngorms suffered :buck2:

Yep - respect for women who have been suffering for many, many years. And it was very coooold yesterday!
Its a bit chilly around the trossachs, Billy :-))
Yes it was bob - it was very much so!
Had to pull into Portsmouth for some repairs around Thanksgiving.
Because we had a squadron commander aboard, the notables who greeted us included some army types. One was from a Royal Regiment in his kilt.
The wind in November was not kind to him as he crossed the gangway.
After all the dignitaries left, the captain wondered aloud why the kilt was still worn. In one of my finer moments, I was able to explain how the sheepshaggers got their name.
I had an Irish Tartan once. I loved it. Never could teach the damned thing not to shit inside the house though. :P
