    Greetings from Grangemouth

    Hi there!
    I’m a new member to XMarks. I’ve recently returned to Scotland after working in Hong Kong for 15 years. I have started wearing the kilt almost every day and also taken up kilt making. I’d love to link with other kilt makers, especially those who are beginners like myself. Look forward to hearing from kilt lovers across the world.

    Bill

    Doppelganger is someone who goes on the same route as you do. Usually they also look like one another, but not necessarily.

    Welcome home, Bill. And welcome to the forum. Greetings from the US. I was just ab out to take up kilt making but a recent shoulder injury put that on hold. Now my kilt wearing is limited to my solo pipe competitions at Highland Games across the country.

    Looks like we're having a 'kilted klergy konvention' here.
