Options for smart but informal

I spoke to Hector Russell and a delivery date of 24th July has been agreed - delayed from the original at my request due to other stuff going on.

That gives a couple of months hence to it's first official outing, and plenty of time to add a dress shirt and bow tie to the package for Christmas. Pictures of the full "PC" will have to wait until then, but I should have some casual try-outs to post.

Oh, in a semi-related question: what does the term TANK mean in the context of kilts - have searched and can't find an explanation. Totally Awesome New Kilt is my best guess!

A 'TANK' Is defined as an eight-yard, wool, hand-sewn, traditional kilt. ie., "It's built like a tank." (coined by Jimmy Carbomb c.2005)

Thanks Carlo - couldn't find it for looking. I think I prefer my acronym :-) and this should meet the definition of a TANK in both definitions! Not sure it's 100% hand sewn as it wasn't specified either way, but it's the real article - and expensive enough that I won't be wearing it for sporting activities!
