It's just that they're eternally interested to know what Scotsmen wear under their kilts.

"What's worn under your kilt, Jock?"
"Nothing. It's all in good working order."

Honest
You're right Scot I didn't realise when I wrote my post that it should have been directed at the UK. I guess it was the heading that threw me.

I happen to think that the UK is the sum of all of its parts that make it the great place that it is......I am also 'Pro Union' and would also support Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland should England be knocked out of a sporting event....

Mary Quant also designed the mini kilt, to show off the Beautiful long legs that run in the families of Welshmen.

Re: Proud to be English

OK, let's cut to the chase as to why the Scots and especially the Welsh wear kilts.

It's because the sound of a zip causes the sheep to panic.
