A good day for me.
Left my sisters in Keswick early because of bad weather forecasts, pausing in a quiet place near Keswick to change into my long denim Midas skirt (See my pics and looks thread, a photo will be there very shortly). Temperature was about -3 degrees celcius with an inch or two of dry powder snow.
Drove back to Penrith, filled up my LPG, barely a glance in the filling station. Skirt did get a bit wet in the slush though. Still, warm knees and legs make a long skirt worth it, no need for tights or anything else to take away from the feel of the skirt.
Drove back to Glasgow, spent quite a bit of time in B&Q (a UK DIY superstore for those not of the UK). Bought some loft insulation for the hoose, again, didn't see anyone staring, no comments. Wetter snow here, again, a wet hem due to thicker wetter snow.
Topped up the LPG tank again, again, no comments, just more falling snow.
Drove back to my house picking my way through the stuck cars, snow falling, up to a foot of snow in many places, why don't people drive fast enough to have enough inertia to get up hills? Still the Jeep is ideal, had plenty of fun.
Picked my way through the occasional open road until I got home, many roads currently shut. On the way, I knew my friend was in the house working on re-joisting the top floor. I fretted over whether to find somewhere to change back into my jeans. I eventually decided that I was sick of running upstairs and getting changed everytime they visited, I didn't get changed, just turned up at the house in the skirt, went up to see him, he said "You're in a skirt" I said "You keep talking about my skirts, I just put a long one on,"(I often wear my kilt when socialising, my mates call it a skirt so I often call it my drinking skirt). That was it, a very welcome anti-climax. Now I can relax in the house when cars arrive. I will see if any more gets said later on, and keep you updated.
As many others have said here, skirting in public is mostly a non-event, apart from in our own heads!
