Well done Jamie!

Nice kilt for sure, but more taken by how the "longer than bomber" coat works with the kilt in the pics.

Thanks Glen, the " 'Stash of Epicness" gives the bearer +3 to hit and +3 damage (doubled against trolls).

Cheers

Star picked it out for me from the "Irish Castle" booth at the Pleasanton Games last year. They have a store in San Francisco and it is my very favorite walking stick. A lot of blackthorn sticks available are really thin but not this one! (Star made her choice by testing all the sticks against our children's backsides. They liked this one least so naturally it was the winner

I picked that one up second hand last year at a games in Santa Cruz. It is by Kangol (like my much beloved tweed bucket hat*)

No more so than usual Sir!

That waistcoat is actually a Harris tweed one given to Alan! Being about 9 sizes too small he in turn gave it to me. By happy coincidence it looks great with the MacNaughton tartan!

Gee, I'd forgotten about that one. It looks good.... glad it's getting some use.

Hmm, I'll have to swing by there. I have a heavy and still-new-looking handknit Arran sweater in black sheep yarn I bought at that store in San Francisco. The proprietress told me at the time, "It'll still be keepin' ye warm when ye go down to the grave!".

That was in 1982.

I'd love to find a really good stout blackthorn.

I'm a big fan of a stout blackthorn so, rather than highjack Panache's thread, I'm going to start a new one:
