    Thanks to Faither Bill

    Just got a very kind note from Father Bill checking in because I've been selling off a lot of stuff lately. It reminded me of what I like the most about this forum - the people. Just wanted to thank him and everyone else for being such kind folks. For those interested in why I'm selling stuff off, it's to support a move to NYC in search of greener jobs pastures. I've decided to get rid of a daywear outfit I never wear in order to fund this new adventure. And as we all know, the next best thing to wearing a kilt and the related accoutrements is going out and getting more kilts and the related accoutrements. I do the same with bagpipes, too - the post office loves me.

    Anyway - thanks again for being such a good group. Slainte!

    Good luck in NYC, JR!

    I'm about to start a big sell off in order to finance my brass cantle sporran project and a couple of other goodies I'm looking for. I figured that's what you were doing. That brass cantle sporran is the reason I didn't snap up the gorgeous one you are selling. I have nine sporrans and I wear four of them so it's time to thin out the herd.

    A very considerate and compassionate gesture on the part of Father Bill. Way to walk the talk, sir! Well done.
