Australia - hot - pah...!!! Here in sunny England (and Scotland as well apparently - apologies to all other Countries that make up this Great Britain of ours...although not sure about Wales - doesn't it always rain there...???) - anyway I digress - Here in the UK it's hit nearly 30 degrees C..... ...Yeah....and we don't ask for concessions... very much.....Originally Posted by Yliander
Errr...Ok, I'll give it a go but I might have to ask Trampy for some advice on how to do that.....Originally Posted by Yliander
Ah...now this one's easy - I'll just pop down south and see if Andy McG will lend me something from his wardrobe - something with floral print I think, or linen......Originally Posted by Yliander
Thank you so mcuh for your advice - it will be put to good use in our arrid and somewhat sweaty parts........

This is meant to be serious, non baiting! Saw a bloke in a kilt at Middlebrough Ceroc last night. My first thoughts were uncharitable (well I am a geordie, and they say a Scot is a geordie with his head kicked in; or maybe it is the other way round.
Then I started to see the advantage (I was at a 'beach' freestyle on Saturday, wore long shorts which I never thought I would ever do, a vest and trekker sandals; stayed really cool all night) and even got a bit jealous, except he wasn't as good looking as me.
Kilts do have the advantage of a certain draft whilst spinning, but are at all cool to wear. They are made from wool, approximately one flock worth. Why do you think we have so many sheep in scotland (don't answer that!)
As the most southern outpost of the artic circle, our national dress is definately not heatwave wear!
Yes, I too must confess to using carpet tape with a dress I have which tends to be a bit inclided to slide down and show my bra - it really does work!Originally Posted by Dianas
I think these girls who can wear backless halterneck dresses are sooo lucky! They look dead elegant, unfortunately I don't think I could find one that would hold my ample bosom in even if I used a whole roll of tape, toupe, tit, carpet or sello!!!
Who told you that? A proper kilt is heavy, wooly and very warm. (well, mine is)Originally Posted by Sal
My nether regions are definetly cooler {temerature} wearing dress trousers. Perhaps I need to spin more ?
True enough, the only time I've worn a kilt for dancing, my midriff was especially hot, with all those woolly layers, but I intentionally did lots of spinning, and found this helped keep other regions pleasantly ventilated! (It was February though, and no risk of sunburn.)Originally Posted by Gadget

mental note must go to the BFGOriginally Posted by Sheepman
The guy I saw (but I didn't look too closely ), his kilt didn't seem heavy material, and I must admit that he looked cool, literally and metaphorically, with tattoos, somewhat in the Robert Carlyle, on a bad day, style.Originally Posted by Gadget
Oooh I can't wait for the BFG!Originally Posted by mick

Nowadays, you can get kilts made from many different materials - denim for example, oh and leather that's it I'm stopping nowOriginally Posted by mick
Still, nothing better than a man in a proper, tartan, wool kilt (especially if he also has a tux in his suitcase )

Most (cheap) modern kilts are light-weight cotton - designed for fasion rather than anything else. The real thing is about six yards of woolen blanket (72"/180cm tall), pleated down to one yard {anyone interested can look here}. The "traditional" kilt is still about the same length of material and weighs about the same as an old leather biker's jacket. And is five times the price of a light-weight kilt.Originally Posted by mick
Anyone like the rugbyshirt, kilt & hiking boots look? I don't: and give me a Jackobean, lace-up shirt over a pleated shirt & bowtie any day of the week.
Aboslutely wonder if there'd be any chance of getting 7 guys in a cabaret all wearing kilts and lace-up shirts?Originally Posted by Gadget

Thanks for the tip! I mentioned it to my sister and she picked one up for me when she was shopping! It's a travel towel and comes in the size of a small drinks can and is super absorbent. I'll be trying it out tonight.. are you at Notts? I'll try not to get lost this time.
I've also been using travel packs of deoderant wipes 'cas I feel when I've towelled off I may still be a little on the high side so I give myself a good going over!
I was dancing the lead again last night, and did notice that the womans scent is as pervasive as the man's.
Hows the body tape going?!

It's really hot today, so i was looking for some tips to keep cool.
My tip would be to stay hydrated. If you feel thirsty, it's too late, you are already dehydrated.
Another thing is that carbonated water and carbonated drinks like coke, will actually dehydrated you. You'd be better off drinking nothing! Hard to believe!
Men if you are a bit overweight, theres a few of us, wear shorts and a vest with socks up to the knees.
Women love this sexy look.

What's your kilt made out of Whaley? Do you dance au naturel to keep cool?
