I knew grandson David and neighbor Logan were throwing a football outside. After a while, I looked out and was shocked to see someone wearing a kilt.
My eyes are not what they used to be, so it took a few seconds for me to realize David had gotten too warm and had tied his flannel shirt around his waist. If your vision was a bit blurry, would you have seen a kilt at first??

Yes, I think i would have thought the same thing. I know a man, a former parishioner who embraced kilts a few years back as part of his heritage. I am sorry that you are having that problem though.

I’m used to bad vision now. The retina leaked at least two years ago.
My ancestors came from Scotland. Daughter Lise has looked up our tartan. If I’ve seen it, I don’t remember it.

My mother’s side of the family was from Scotland, and I have always loved kilts and tartans. I really liked this post…and I rather like it when King Charles wears one! One of our ancestors used to play the bagpipe wearing the family tartan.

Marvelous! Daughter Lise has been to some gatherings of distant relatives. She is more interested in our heritage than the rest of us.

I love that she has done so. I miss the days when we had the big family reunions, and it was always so fun to see and hear the McBrayers’, especially the bagpipe-playing kilt-wearing cousin Carl.

Nice playing football David & Logan. Although kilts are traditionally associated with Scotland, they are also long-established in Irish culture. Kilts are worn in both Scotland and Ireland as a symbol of pride and a celebration of their Celtic heritage,!
Nice you sharing kilt wearing someone but David his shirt around his waist,but your vision was bit blurry.
Tack care!

I would have to agree with you, Anne. It would look like a kilt through blurry vision. There’s a rock group I like and the lead singer Jonathan wears a kilt a lot. I was disappointed the last time I saw them in concert because he wasn’t wearing it. I think they are sexy on certain men.

Haha, I can see why you made the mistake. I have a closet full of kilts and all the associated gear upstairs – I’m in Scotland, and my husband plays the bagpipes. A word of advice should the situation ever arise – don’t remain in a room with someone practising the bagpipes – make your excuses and run! I can assure you that the noise is deafening and really painful to the ears! 😁

A man played Amazing Grace in the balcony of our church, and we had very good acoustics. He paced back and forth in a tiny space. I don’t know what he did to soften the sound, but it was bearable!
