    Hullo t' me kin

    Greetings Kin and Cousins,

    This is actually my second post. Found this group during the order process of me freedom kilt. Excellent forum, Wanted to thank all the active members.

    Actually came to an interest in proper men's wear the roundabout way. A close encounter with a jeep wrangler whilst suzuki'ed (bandit 600) put me down hard for a time.

    The resulting scars left me with a distinct adversity to clothing in warm weather. Despite an excellent privacy shrub about the compound, this brought much woe to the neighbors.

    By chance I surfed upon some MUG pages whilst researching an obscure martial art form and discovered the kilted on-line community.

    Have nothing against those other folk, but being descended from MacBeths' and Drummonds' and such the kilt strikes a chord for me.

    Would like to have a TANK in the not to far future, but amassing modern kilts ATM.


    Wore me original UK to work yesterday (a warehouse which issues gear to installers of home entertainment wares). My boss, a female of a rather unique religious persuasion was taken somewhat aback. Her Boss, a young man was delighted. A supervisor outside my chain of command was somewhat disturbed, but survived and general reaction was positive.



    Really appreciate such a great group and hope to be a good contributer. I thought about choosing a really "kilty" handle, but I have been Perldog007 all around the .net since '96. It is my brand.

    Most of them brother..... but that is all in the past now. I think you are right about the addiction. I am back at work dressed like a civilian and having kilt separation anxiety.

    So, when you say "Suzuki'd" what do you mean? Do you drive a Sami Because that would be sweet. I've had a couple in my time, and man i want another.

    I was on a Suzuki Bandit 600 and Broadsided fairly and squarely by an '87 Jeep Wrangler. Rode for two more years after I got off my back, and have now retired for a spell.

    Wearing the kilt is more fun and possibly safer......
