Greetings to everyone.
I've enjoyed reading the posts here for a little while and have decided that I'll join the fray. As for my heritage - mostly Irish, me Mother is Orange and me Pops is half Green and half English (with a little of pretty much everything else). I'm much too lazy to dabble on trying to figure out who is who so I just proclaim I'm Canadian and that's good enough for me. Anyways, heritage is given to any man (or woman) but courage to wear a kilt is something special noone can give.

Cheers,
T.R. Matthews

Well, my girlfriend bought me a little while ago an Irish National from Stillwater and I must say I was quite impressed and wear it everywhere....just by chance I'm wearing it now. Of course I would like to get my hands on a 'real' kilt one of these days but as I'm currently living the 'starving student' lifestyle my Stillwater is an unbelievable luxery. And as for new or old to kilting, I'd say, hmm, luke warm.

Cheers,
T.R. Matthews

Hi Matthew,

Good to have you on the forum.
Just as you are learning how addictive kilts are,
this board is just as addictive.

Matthews,

Welcome to the forum.

If you have not done so already, I would suggest that you track Phil's posts on the kilt night in the Toronto area in March. My wife and I are planning to attend, from Kanata.
