No' Enough Kilts To Go Around, Laddie

A shortage of ceremonial kilts could leave thousands of soldiers without a stitch of plaid to wear as they parade to the skirl of the bagpipes. Military officials said more than 5000 Scottish soldiers must share their kilts because defence chiefs have not finalised a contract to buy enough of the garments to go around. According to thetelegraph.co.uk, the men have just 320 kilts, or one for every 15 soldiers.
