Kilt patrol

I can faintly remember on occasion in the cold winter mornings when in a packed street car you would feel the quick caress of some cold fingers. Not knowing whether to shriek out, curse or anticipate the best, you would swing your head around quickly, but to your shock you would see a group of both sexes that would leave you in a state of perplexity. Now that I am long in the tooth, Gaud for those good old days and short kilts.
And no smart remarks...Carman

Ah for the good old days, eh?
They say "cold hands, warm heart"

Back then you could tell the gender of who was messing with you, at least.

TARTANS ... I haven't read up on this topic yet, but I assume that the colours, lines and patterns all have some signifigance unique to its clan?

Does anyone know the origination of the tradition of "nothing between kilt and skin"? Like, what's the point? (you bunch already are telling me about its benefits : )

(I'll have to look up FIDLER too, as I have that blood as well as MOWAT ... Mowat's can wear SUTHERLAND tartans for reasons i don't know)

ALEX ... did I ever say thank-you for the Tartan link? ...if not... THANK YOU.
