jock strap Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 As per the title, what's the plans for Troops wearing the kilt ? I'm thinking that it's gonna be chafftastic so probs no gonna bother. If it's anything like Alicante, I had to go back to the hotel match day to change. Got Scotland shorts with the Saltire etc so think that's the way forward for me. What you lot thinking ?

Ormond Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 If I can wear the kilt full regalia over here at an outdoor wedding in the middle of the hot, humid summer then you'll be fine in October with cool Atlantic breezes Del. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point buddy, but when you get wellied and jump in the sea, it's a pure nightmare ! Unfortunate experiences such as Bari, Alicante, Amsterdam ( yikes3: ) and many others cause the obvious added concern ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezmondo Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Definitely shorts this trip. I'm not a huge fan of the kilt but generally wear it on away matches days. On a side note does anyone know where I could pick up a nice pair of tartan shorts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RABBIEBURNS Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Kilt for us 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goozay Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I usually stick the kilt on for the flight out and wear it throughout the trip including the flight back. This time around cause of the length of the journey and the heat while I'm there I'll reserve the kilt for night before the game and match day.

Geeman Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Well I too am worried about everything below the equator becoming raw, having suffered this fate over the summer on a Stag do. Plan A is for kilt on the Saturday when we fly and Sunday for match day. Next two days will be put in the 'wait and see' column. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ormond Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Jings, it really won't be that hot. It is October and there will be healthy breezes in from the ocean. The hottest trip I remember was a Prague game in a May I think. That was brutally hot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottincarlisle Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 It was. I couldn't believe the heat for that trip. I think there was a beer garden/bar at the top of that hill in that park.....most welcome pint of Pils ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolhibby Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I think there was a beer garden/bar at the top of that hill in that park.....most welcome pint of Pils ever. We just pushed on through and grabbed a pint at the ground. I inhaled it in about a second. We were delirious by the top of those steps. We were cocking about with a football and it started bouncing down. Nobody could be arsed going after it. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
