Re: to buy or not to buy a kilt b4 you go
My ex has worn his over here heaps of times: very good for getting attention from both sexes :scared: . Just like the accent, Aussies seem to go mad over it. He's certainly found it a helluva lot easier to get a social life here than I have and I put it all down to the kilt! Bring it!

Hi Brissydeb
Since we found out that we're moving over to Oz, the only thing my hubby is bothered about is buying a kilt before we go!!!
glad i'm not the only one with this problem. hope he doesn't go for the whole regalia or it will need it's own suitcase!!!!

Hi Debbie,
When we went over for a holiday last year the OH bought one. My cousin half expected him to come off the plane wearing it but we kept it a surprise and on new years eve all three of us came down with our kilts on. My auntie burst into tears. Went down a treat. Go on Jeff - buy one.
