Sorry Guys, but you're going to have to manage without me for a few weeks!

On Thursday afternoon I begin my journey to Palm Springs, California for a totally "chilling-out at the pool-side" two week holiday, and I'll have precious little time to even lurk here before I go.

Jet-lag permitting, I'll be up and running again on 23rd October, and I dread to think how many posts will be waiting for me to read by then!

I'm disappointed that there'll be no Kilts Night Gathering over there, but one thing that fills me with joy about this trip is that I'll be coming home with five new kilts! Two Semi-Traditionals from Rocky ('Caledonia' and 'Prince of Wales') and three from Utilikilts (Tan Corduroy, Tan Original and Chocolate Workman's). Watch this space for photos.

Keep well and happy, Fellas, and keep my seat warm.
