If I ever decided to waste my time writing an online journal, I promised myself that I’d write about the controversy surrounding my kilt, and given that my first entry has received so much ‘praise’ from a certain someone, it’s only fitting that I complement it by writing a second one.

First of all, I’m not Scottish – I don’t have ginger hair, I don’t speak like William Wallace, and I can assure you, I am wearing boxers under that kilt (a pair that matches my kilt in fact). And the rumours are true by the way: real Scotsmen don’t wear anything under their kilts (how I came by this piece of information I cannot say) and the ventilation provided by a kilt is very satisfying.

One day at the school I go to, I was waddling about at lunch time, when this kid comes up to me and asks, ‘Excuse me, but aren’t you the guy on hi5 wearing the skirt?’ What an entertaining question, to which I replied, ‘Yes, I am,’ smiling slightly of course. I personally couldn’t give a rat’s arse whether it looks like a woman’s skirt or not as long as it’s comfortable and I can have a laugh while wearing it. The only time you’ll catch me wearing it, though, is at Cultural Day. But who knows? New Year’s Eve is coming up…
