What do you wear under the kilt? - SURVEY!

FOR SCIENCE!

There was a YouGov poll done in Scotland in 2016 about what Scots wear under the kilt. We've quoted it a few times, but there were 2 issues: 1) The poll is only of Scots and 2) there were only 315 respondents!

We've decided to take it upon ourselves to design our OWN survey and gather our OWN data to settle the question: What do you wear under the kilt?

If you have 3 minutes, wear the kilt, and want to help us gather scientific data, please consider being part of our survey!

St Pirans Tartan

Yeah i know the kilt is a bit small for me now, i was fitted to it at 18, now 34 (i’m a classic Cornish build - short and stocky) just happy i can still get into it tbh.

I Had the honour of leading Helstons Hal-An-Tow this year, and thought yous might want to see a Cornish Tartan that isn’t our National one.

Helstons Flora Day Is an Ancient festival, and Cornwall has a HUGE diaspora (i’m a new member of it, often referred to as Cousin Jacks and Jennies), something we give a nod to when the festivities start. As i came back from Canada to be there, they made me standard bearer.

Fellow Celts; Dont be alarmed by St George behind me, he’s apart of the story telling, but as we sing “…but greater than st George our Helston has a rite - O!”

Last pic is of the rabble i was rousing in an effort to scare away winter, i hope it worked for you!

Painting tartan?

So I want to paint my clan tartan pattern on my car, but I can’t find any decent tutorials on YouTube that aren’t jokes about plaid paint. Does anyone have any suggestions or can give me a simple step by step way of doing it properly? It’ll likely be done with automotive aerosol paint and frog tape, and then clear coated.

FORMAL KILT JACKET SEARCH

Fellow kilt wearers,

After corticosteroids caused me to pile on pounds, I was chuffed to lose 25kg when I weaned off them – and now that my jacket fits, again, I find that it has been attacked by moths, during the intervening years of non wear!🤦🏻‍♂️ I need a replacement, therefore – but I’m loathe to buy a new one, until my weight has stabilised. For this reason, I’m thinking of going down the ex-hire, or pre-owned, route…

I happen to be flying up to Edinburgh, tomorrow, for 48hrs, and am looking for recommendations – please – for where I might find either a Prince Charlie Coatee, or a Montrose Doublet, which may be worn with kilt or trews. I have an important Bomb Alley Survivors Club (the Officers of HMS BROADSWORD, Falkland Islands, 1982) reunion dinner, next month, so would really like to square this away before then!

Many thanks, folks!🙏🏼
