[pct-l] BAN THE KILT INITIATIVE

[Craig Stanton]

Neither wool nor fleece will do for my kilt. And it's not a rash I  
have, but the rash people here on the list have talked about. This is  
a rash prevention technique, not a cure. I have had a suggestion  
emailed to me by a seamstress of some standing that rather than a  
kilt I try a loin cloth. When the shops open again on Saturday I'll  
be seen in the material isle, looking for some quick drying, wicking  
fabric. With leopard print.
