    Terveiset From the freezing north

    Hello everyone.

    I am an outdoors guy from Finland. New on the forum but well accustomed to the kilt.

    I got my first from Nova Scotia and got bitten by the bug. Now I have three from which the Orkney Slate is my all time favorite.

    Glad to see there is such an active community and camaraderie amongst us kilt users.

    I am used to the cold and harsh climates here in Finland so if anyone has any questions about wearing a kilt below freezing temperatures I will gladly help. Or try anyway.

    It's not easy to acquire kilts or the accessories here so I will pay special attention to DIY projects and tips/hints on global trustworthy suppliers.

    Anyway, thanks for letting me join in the forum and may you all have a great day (or night, depending where you are from)

    I seem to remember a "blizzard" in Mississippi in March quite a few years back. And snowy Christmases. Has it changed that much since I last lived there back at the turn of the century?
