Do they really go commando underneath? I sure hope that it is not windy on the da...

Thanks everyone for the info. My fiance has just placed an online order with a Scottish website for his kilt. His family does not belong to any specific clan and the closest to his name is the Gordon clan. I also found a group of Singaporeans who are passionate about the bagpipe and might be using t...
