I sure hope the actual pics show up in the post! Ahh, they don't. . . all well.

Your pics are showing up, it's just that one has to click on the jpg link you provided. There is a bit of a problem on the site at the moment in relation to posting pics direct from ones computer, but the boss is onto it. Thanks for the pics by the way. Cheers

Wonderful photos my dear Catharps. I am curious about the top (height) of your kilt/skirt. I tried to observe the shadow of the fold in your last photo and can't get the top (without guessing). The reason I mention the height is, I would like to get my wife something comparable so that she may reduce her resistance to my kilt wearing. I've drawn her attention to the other "tartan ladies" of our site, and I will further entice her with your photos.
There was a previous thread on "tucking one's t-shirt" that I feel you can ignore, as you look ideal. My thanks to your photographer.

Lovely pictures Catharps.

Stunning. The sea seems to agree with you.

Very nice! By the way, are you by any chance at Oscar Niemeyer's Musuem of Contemporary Art?

The skirt does sit high on the waist, not on the hips. I am 5'10'' on a good day. I love the way the skirt 'flows' in the back. If your wife wears any sort of skirt, I am sure she would enjoy one!

Thank you for the kind words!

Sure am! Its in the background of the last photo. I wandered down there a couple years ago. Playing the ignorant American, just kinda walked in and poked around. I'm not a fan of (or much educated in) the 'modern' look, but it sure is impressive!
