    Belated hello!

    Hi,

    First I must apologise for such a tardy post considering I registered in 2008!

    I’m a typical Scots/English mongrel and first wore a kilt when I borrowed one from a neighbour after being invited to a Burn’s Supper. Having said that I may have worn one in childhood as both my older brothers did, but I can't recall it if I did. Though the loaned kilt was a lovely outfit it wasn’t a great fit and more importantly it wasn’t mine! So after some agonizing (especially over the cost!) I persuaded my financial controller (the wife) that it would be a good investment

    I’ve now just bought my second one off e-Bay and I’m about to take it to paulhenry to get it the right length for me.

    Hope to meet more of you in the future.

    Best wishes,
    Andy
