Wonder what I'm wearing? No secret about that. It is a kilt.
   Back in the nineties and in connection with making a business case study for my teaching I rather incidentally found out that the kilt is the most comfortable manly garment available. Since then I will rather often wear a kilt in my spare time i.e. as casual wear.
   I tell you this because a kilt forms part of some of my pictures here and so you can stop wondering why.
  By the way: The Internet and a blooming kilt market prove that I'm not alone.

Want to know a little bit more about kilt wearing and perhaps buying a kilt? Follow this link. I have done my best to keep my advice simple, short and straightforward.
