I'm Celtic, I'm (seriously) twisted and...and..I must confess

[McKenzie]

that I sometimes wear a kilt.

[HEyHEY]

1. I would wear one

If I had one

[da_chimperor]

2. Do you have one of those little knives in your sock?

All the time, or just on special occasions? A Sgian Dubh?

[McKenzie]

7. a "black knife"...yes

I wear mine on the l/h side because I'm left-handed. I can openly carry a deadly weapon in public LOL!

[da_chimperor]

20. Oooooo! Do you have a claymore?

Nothing like cleaving Englishman in twain with a huge sword to brighten up your Sunday.

[McKenzie]

22. LOL! No I don't but I've seen the genuine article

in museums and castles. Claymores are seriously large, designed for swinging, rather than stabbing. They needed considerable strength to use apparently.

3. Cead mile Failte

So, what do you wear under your kilt? :)

[McKenzie]

9. boxer shorts...it's windy and cold over here

and I don't want to frighten old ladies!

[Aristus]

4. Fellow Celt here. Never worn a kilt, though.

'Celt' is so much easier to say than 'Anglo-Welsh-Scots-Irish-Franco-American'! B-)

[Bouncy Ball]

5. ROOOWWWWRRRRR

I DO love a man in a kilt. Hey do you look like Ewan McGregor? Even if you don't, say yes anyway.

So, um. What do you wear under your kilt?

[McKenzie]

10. Oddly enough, our population is declining

must be the cold weather and the lack of knickers under the kilt... I wear boxer shorts under mine but I know many men who wear zilch... "Donald where's yir troosers?"

I'm older than Ewan but I was educated in Edinburgh, where the film "Trainspotting" is set.

slainthe!

[Bouncy Ball]

11. You wear BOXERS under your kilt?

Oh I am greatly disappointed. Greatly. Sadly. I'm shaking my head over here. Let your boys be FREE!!!

[McKenzie]

18. just this once then...here you go

6. And what about the pipes? n/t

[McKenzie]

12. can't play 'em, wish I could though

A lone piper playing a pibroch (lament) can reduce grown men to tears.

[NV Whino]

19. Aye, laddie. A grown woman, too. n/t

[CrownPrinceBandar]

8. My ancestors were lowland Scots..................

and I'd love to have a kilt. But $700US is a bit to much for me to pay for gear at this point.

[roguevalley]

15. my cousins and uncles play the pipes, I love that music. I am still

bumming over the demise of Silly Wizard. I had a picture somewhere of a Scottish soldier laying a wreath on Memorial day and his kilt blowing up. He had no unders on. Very cute picture.

[Bouncy Ball]

13. It was a little breezy that day.

[Bouncy Ball]

14. ...

[mr_hat]

16. You know that the tartan

was simply a marker for genocide imposed by the English?

[roguevalley]

17. they banned it for a long time. People never gave it up. My family

never did even when they immigated.

21. I'm putting on my kilt in about 15 minutes.

Then I'm off to perform Scottish Country Dances at a Burns Night dinner. I'm a little too old to be part of the Highland demo. (And not quite old enough to give up and switch to English :-)
