Didn't know it was called that. Was there a few years ago, shame I didn't know you then would have been good to meet you.
Look forward to seeing your new acquisition on location of course.

Riverkilt,
I'm writing an article for the Patriot (the Scottish American Military Society newsletter) on the new tartan. When you have pics, may I use one? I've got pics of Steve's and mine already.

I am feeling some of your pain. I have lost so much weight over the last year that only a couple of my kilts fit anymore and my Kathy Lare is not one of them. I am waiting until after the New Year to make sure my weight has stabilized through the Holidays and than sending it out to be adjusted.

For sure Geoff. Things "may" be breaking my way at work, hoping to head off to the post office soon. May be the holiday before I can grab pics.. And Drac, Kathy's made a lot of different sized kilts for me...thank God for kilt straps....

Sorry to hear of the problems but it did work out (except for the ticket).
I just love the way you wordsmith.

I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

Very nice! The red flashes really look nice with the kilt, obviously as it's like the red strips on the uniform slacks. Hope you didn't get too stressed out having to try and wrestle your kilt from the grips of the USPS.
