So a man skirt then :-). Anyway I wasn't suggesting wearing a strappy top and heels with it, that would look ridiculous with your beard. I was more thinking pleated tartan.

And anyway, I like me flanno's. Or had you forgotten?!

I am sure that you could get a pattern and knock one together fairly easily, I doubt the highlanders could always afford tailors.MickR likes this.Bread and water can so easily become tea and toast

Then he could make a leather kilt, and pop a flannel shirt on. Or he could make a flannel kilt.
Or both, leather for knifemaking, flannel for the summer.Last edited by edhewitt; 07-25-2013 at 04:02 AM.

I wouldn't go knocking a leather kilt. As our American friends like to say (though I can't bring myself to use incorrect spelling), They're BadArse! Which apparently means really, really good!

I've always thought bad arse means something painful. Sort of a thing of 'the others'. Originally Posted by MickR

I am not knocking a leather kilt, I observed that it would be useful in the workshop, ie if you slipped while honing etc, save you from bobbitting yourself. Originally Posted by MickR

I had a bit of a bad arse today, a kilt would have been a positive boon for reducing toilet access time, and leather is wipe clean.
Anyway back to Carl, do we think he should get a kilt?MickR likes this.Bread and water can so easily become tea and toast

Yeah. I do actually. Stupid things. Why can't we all just have perfect eyes? I'm as blind as a bat, I can't even read that big letter A on the eye chart, I guess I'd be disabled if there was no such thing as glasses. They'd have to sit me in a corner of the wigwam and make me chew the roots from that secret forest plant to make the hallucinogens used in the ceremonies if I lived in an Indian village...Or I could be a shoe shine boy, but not in the Indian village, because shining moccasins is probably counter productive. See, now I've got the threads mixed up. I thought we were talking about boots and polishing and stuff but we're on about hallucinogen guzzling Indians in kilts wearing swords and driving vintage Mercs through France (or Italy)...
