Welcome John Allen

[Graham]

Our 201st member, welcome, glad you found us, jump in and don't be shy, you can say anything you like but don't mention "skirts" (sorry, i said it).

You'll meet some fine and dedicated people here who are willing to share their inner secrets, fears, joys and stories about wearing the most wonderful garment in God's Creation, the kilt!

Sorry about that John Allen a BIG hello from Norway to you

Glad to see you here John. I think you'll like it here better than at Toms. This board is populated by a great bunch of people.

If someone here knows John please tell him that the email address he signed up with is not valid and therefore his activation email did not get sent. I activated his account though and he can now login and change it. Thanks!

(PS- I tried to send him an email but it bounced, hence the invalid email...)

Thank you all so much for the warm welcome! That is so nice, I feel so welcome already. It makes being a newbee pretty exciting. Sorry I have been so long in responding to your generosity.

I am very new to kilts and want to get one soon and learn from you.

I have not been back here but two or three times since I joined at the nice invitation of "Lord Bubba" or "Sir Kilted Bubba" of the Kilted Knights! whom I met at Tom's Cafe. He has become a very dear friend and so has Bob Moore. The Cafe has become a very hostile unfriendly place. I promise to behave myself here to encourge you as you already have me.

Man I love the tone of this place!!

I am interested in Kilts and not all the other rhetoric.

I am ordering my first Kilt tonight but it is not a traditional tartan, hope you are not offended. I am going with a plain black AK, My next one will be a more traditional but also plain black or black watch.

I will wait to order while I learn more from all you kilted knights in pleats and armored sporrans before I decide.

I am about to take a mountain trip into the Blue Ridge and Smokys - twice in 3 weeks and hope to be "Kilted" the second time.

FYI to Sir Lord highlandtide, My email address is correct, but the email server I share with my friend blocks all mail from the major html mail sites like hotmail and yahoo. Your email address was put in the exception list so it should now get through but please send me a PM if it does not and tell me your address so I can make sure it gets through.

Thank you all again for such a very warm welcome. I love it here already!

John,

Glad to see you finally broke through! It is a wonderful place to gather and share a thought or two. As you can tell it is a fiesty bunch with a few ideas to share on most anything.

Cannot wait to hear about your kilted experiences and ideas!

Again WELCOME!!!

Hi John welcome again, glad you've managed to post. Good to hear of your interest in wearing the kilt, as you do so more and more you'll understand why we are all so excited about it.

All the best choosing a kilt, let us know how you get on.

Thank you again Graham, I read most of your posts over at the Cafe and found we have some things in common besides kilts.

John, you might have me confused with someone else, I've not posted at the Cafe for quite a long time.
