Long tr*users. It's cold and wet, and I'm glum and depressed -- perfect trouser territory.

I just got home and was sad to see that my posting of yesterday didn't quite make it to the site.
I went up to Manchester on business, arriving late I booked into a hotel with a great last-minute deal. I changed into a kilt and went down to the bar to reclaim my free bottle of wine, and to surf the net on my rather ancient Sharp Zaurus PDA.
So there I was in the bar, no comments enjoying a rather nice wine. Unfortunately when I "submitted" the PDA hung and I couldn't check whether my posting had got through.
This morning - still kilt-clad I went down to breakfast in the hotel, before taking a walk around Piccadilly. The only comment came from - you've guessed it - builders. As I walked past a group erecting scaffolding I had the quite friendly comment " Had a good night last night!", to which I could reply quite truthfully - "A very good one!"
Shame I couldn't pluck up the courage to go to my meeting in the kilt, it would have been much more comfortable.
By the way - I'm posting this, dressed almost as I was last night - roll-neck top, McCloud of Harris Ancient Kilt, but without the shoes and socks.

Thanks for that, by the way, SD. The warm and fuzzies helped.SkirtDude wrote:Sorry to hear that. Here's a hugcrfriend wrote:Long tr*users. It's cold and wet, and I'm glum and depressed -- perfect trouser territory.![]()
That's a nice image; the world needs more of 'em.
Back on topic, what am I wearing now? I'm wearing my work gear, but have swapped off the bottom parts from black trousers to my black tiered skirt. The upper part is a blue dress shirt with my antique-pattern blue waistcoat. And I'm off to bed in a few minutes; I need the rest....

About to put on a pair of jeans (after I shower) and off to my gf's to finish installing the bumper on my car I painted. My housemates wouldn't think very well of me wearing a skirt around here. But I only have to live with them for another week maybe two at most, so I'm cool with jeans for now. Maybe a skirt later in the day, who knows.
Skirtdude, Try checking the bearings if it's a constant whine.
I'm slowely building my rally car (the bumper comment in a different thread), Which is a 99 Subaru Impreza L (going to be nicer than an STi in a couple years).

T-shirt and shorts, soon to be T-shirt and jeans. Gotta figure out why one of my front tires feels like it's out of round...
