Och Aye!

I'm off out to a work do for my gf... in a kilt! It's a chilly wind - I hope there are no Marilyn monroe moments - I'll get frostbite! :shock:

And before you ask, I am wearing pants... THERMAL pants. It's bloody cold!

I thought all real Scotsmen went commando under their kilts and drank McEwans hyper-strength beer to nullify the cold :?:

Sound like it's your first time:

1. you don't wear pants for warmth under a kilt; with 8 yards of exothermic fabric around your nethers, you will never feel cold.
2. you would choose underwear if your nethers are easily prone to chafing. A good pair of cyclist's thighs will join at the groin. After a night out in a hot social space (or a couple of days on tour with the Tartan Army), they will be very raw. OK, that's probably too much information.
3. Maryling Monroe moments are a possibility, but molestation is the more likely hazard. It takes quite a lot of wind to lift a kilt and not much curiosity.
4. KNEES TOGETHER!, especially when seated on steps, staging or balconies. If you drink too much, you will forget this, as a relaxed man likes to spread his knees in mock sexual display. Trouble is, when wearing the kilt, it isn't a mock display, but will invite mockery (and a lot of photography to be used against you later).

Have a good time.

ps. have you practised your urinal technique? - there's an art to it!

1) I would normally agree with you but I want to have CHILDREN at some point

2) No one except tramps drinks McEwans anymore!

3) Possibly I am failing at scottishness...

Actually, the modern kilt was (re)invented by an Englishman from Leeds in 1840. It is really just a Victorian panto outfit,

or pantless outfit, as you choose!

Made that mistake at a wedding no less and in a church too! :shock:

Apologies for suggesting that you are a tramp who drinks McEwans :oops: I'm not familiar with the Scottish beer tipple (pint of Heavy?).
