Brittania

Finally a few free moments to enjoy a cup of tea and catch up on blogging.

As you can see, DH did eventually succeed in outfitting himself in that kilt. This is at the end of our formal dinner aboard the Royal Yacht Brittania, the Queen's private yacht that was decommissioned in the late 90's. Over 90% of the men were wearing kilts, with the dress of the ladies clearly of secondary importance. That's the Bruce tartan he's wearing, as oral family history puts Robert the Bruce somewhere in the distant ancestral past.

Hey I heard about Robert the Bruce-- Braveheart, right?

That's a fine-looking specimen of kilt-wearing man you've got yourself there! You make a lovely couple.
