    The Second Best Thing That Can Happen In A Kilt

    So today I'm kilted up for Robert Burns' Birthday in my Isle of Skye tank. But all morning I keep having to hitch the kilt up. At lunch I finally tightened one of the kilt straps one notch. Been a LONG time since I've had to do that!

    Gotta love it.

    And all this time I thought they only adjusted in one direction. Congratulations.

    I just tried on a leather jacket that I want to wear with a kilt. It hasn't fit me for years, but now it looks great! It's not quite warm enough for winter in Chicago, but I am looking forward to early spring.

    Good on you!

    Well Ron you have just exploded the myth that kilts shrink when hung in the wardrobe, good one
    or have you been hanging around in the wardrobe?
