    Mr. Jones has come for a visit!

    As I've recounted elsewhere, my home was recently burgled. With no prospects for an arrest, my insurance company has paid my claim for the stolen and damaged items. Since some of the things taken are, literally, irreplaceable, I have a small bit left over from replacing the essentials. So....what to do?


    This has been calling to me for a while:


    So, I chose to "pull the trigger" as the saying goes. Mr. Jones has moved in for an extended visit!

    Hi KD. Sorry to hear about the burglary. It can take years to get over something like that. Hopefully a new kilt will go someway to compensate. For those of us who cannot recognise the tartan, what is it please?

    Regards

    Chas

    Yes, sounds like a house call from Dr. Jones will be just the ticket.

    I am sorry to hear about your recent experiences.. Hopefully, you will either replace what has been taken, or you will upgrade the lost possessions.

    I am also curious about the new tartan you are wishing to get. Please let us know...LOL.. inquiring minds, would like to know...LOL

    Tartan ID

    Sorry! I should have mentioned it in the first post. It's called MacDonald Dress Irish.
