    New convert!!!!

    Yesterday we had our yearly Members meeting at my church which I attended in kilt, since my wife now lets me go to all church functions in it. Afterwards one of our teenagers spoke to me wanting to know where I got my kilt.
    Next week we will go to buy the cloth, then I will make him his first kilt! I have not felt so great for quite a while! No longer alone!!

    Just wanting to let you know!

    It's heartening when teenages show interest in the kilt.

    That's excellent, Hermann!

    I had a similar experience at a house party Saturday night. One of the younger male guests had a lot of questions about my kilt, and before too long he was talking about getting one for himself. I gave him a number of casual kiltmakers web addresses.

    Hope for the future of MUGS. Don't recall a single disdainful kilt comment from a teenager that wasn't on probation.

    The current younger generation seems to enjoy them.

    Good for you!!

    That we do, quite a few of my guy friends are interested(not to mention almost all my lady friends), but they're letting me get mine before any commitments on their parts.
