One safeguard adopted by some was lead weights in the hem of the kilt to hold it down. Older heavier cloths meant that it took very strong winds to lift kilts.
I am reminded of an old rhyme... "The wind, the wind, the naughty wind. It blows our skirts up high. But God is just, he sends the dust that blinds the bad man's eye!"

Nice one Peter!

Very funny, Cathy. By the way, have you read Richard Osman's series of novels under the title `The Thursday Murder Club'? I think they would appeal to your sense of humour!

The film, adapted from those books, is released at cinemas next Saturday (23rd). It'll be on Netflix at the end of August. Paulette is going, with a group of friends, in Harrogate (another birthday treat).
