    Hello from Houston, Texas

    My last name is Tennyson, my Mother is a Stevenson and my sister married an Emerson. And yet my writing skills are horrendous.

    Let’s be honest, kilts are provocative and sexy. I have always wanted a kilt but was horrified by the prices and the poor exchange rate.

    After seeing a photo of Marc Jacobs wearing a kilt to a New York film premiere, I’ve decided to take the plunge. For my 50th birthday in May, I plan to attend a play in either New York or London wearing a kilt.

    After shopping online, I have purchased a couple of PV kilts to help determine the correct size and desired weight of material. Along the way I have ordered several accessories to the point of obsession.

    A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to attend a Mardi Gras Ball wearing a kilt with a Prince Charlie jacket. The experience was amazing. I met another kilted gentleman who informed me about the forum.

    Thank you for the opportunity to join the forum.

    Welcome.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
